Just when you think you've seen it all: Obama can't be president because he's 'mulatto'

[one_voice]

No I'm not shitting you, this isn't a joke or satire...

If we thought President Obama silenced all the birthers by releasing his long form birth certificate last year, think again. Apparently, some folks still have doubts and are taking it one step further: to court.

Tuesday, Gordon Warren Epperly filed a lawsuit in Alaska challenging President Obama's inclusion on the 2012 presidential ballot. What's Epperly's beef? Apparently, he feels Negroes and mulattoes can't be president because they aren't really citizens.

His lawsuit states:

Barack Hussein Obama II, a.k.a. Barack Hussein Obama, a.ka. Barack H. Obama has the race status of being a "mulatto." Barack Obama's father (Barack Hussein Obama I) was a full blood Negro being born Nyang'oma Kogelo, Nyanza Province, Kenya and raised in the Colony of Kenya. Barack Obama's mother (Stanley Ann Dunham) was a white Caucasian woman being born in Wichita, Kansas on November 29, 1942 and raised in the state of Washington and in the state of Hawaii.

The petition concludes:

As stated above, for an Individual to be a candidate for the office of president of the United States, the candidate must meet the qualifications set forth in the United States Constitution and one of those qualifications is that the Candidate shall be a "natural born citizen" of the United States. As Barack Hussein Obama II is of the "mulatto" race, his status of citizenship is founded upon the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. Before the [purported] ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment, the race of "Negro" or "mulatto" had no standing to be citizens of the United States under the United States Constitution.

1. BSC!!!!!

Bat Shit Crazy!

2. w.t.f.

[liberal N proud]

3. The stink that just will not go away.

[immoderate]

4. Isn't that a kind of coffee?

[rexcat]

5. Good grief!

[AtomicKitten]

6. This stuff is as ugly as it is endless.

[Terra Alta]

7. they just don't give up, do they?

Can't wait to see what they have to say when November comes around and Obama is re-elected.

[Richardo]

8. So, let me get this straight:

Is he asserting that Barack Obama was born before the 14th amendment was ratified?

Or is he asserting that no part of the constitution adopted before the 14th amendment (bill of rights, etc) applies to those whose citizenship is defined under the 14th amendment?

fucking idiot.

[csziggy]

15. He's trying to claim the 14th Amendment was not properly ratified

I can't stomach the whole thing, but here is his challenge to the National Archivist (:wtf) about that:
Took out the link - Google "Gordon Warren Epperly" and it's the first hit.

The site where that is posted has a lot more of this crap.

Maybe I shouldn't post this stuff here - it is definitely a hate site.

[ThoughtCriminal]

23. By his logic, wouldn't the 13th also be invalid?

I suppose he wants to round up all the decedents of all those illegally freed slaves.

[csziggy]

26. I don't know - I couldn't make it through all his garbage

Aside from having no attention span, there seemed to be breaks in his logic. It reminded me of some of Orly Tait's lawsuits.

[me b zola]

37. I have found when speaking with conservatives of the rw type

that when there are no breaks in their logic, and if you get them to state their argument in a logical line, you end up in a very dark and disturbing place.

[liberalhistorian]

39. I wouldn't be giving him and his ilk any ideas!

Especially not with the current crop of repubs, I wouldn't put it past them to consider something like that. They're getting bolder and more in-your-face with their hate and racism. Can't believe how they're all coming out of the woodwork and crawling out from under their rocks.

[BattyDem]

25. Apparently, he doesn't understand the meaning of the word "amendment"

[madamesilverspurs]

9. Amazing.

The Stupid always finds somebody willing to flaunt it.

[Ohio Dem]

10. I don't even understand the "argument."

Never mind just for a minute how disgusting this is. What the hell is the argument? The 14th Ammendment was ratified. So what's the point? Can someone explain the argument to me?

[Richardo]

11. According to this genius, no one born outside the original 13 states could ever be President...

....since they were not one of the United States when the Constiution was adopted.

[liberalhistorian]

40. Never mind that the Constitution gives clear instructions on the criteria

for becoming a state and how to admit into the union those territories that meet such criteria, and that they're then to be considered a full, participating part of the nation. Gah. Sometimes I wonder if we've all fallen into a backwards-moving time machine.

[saras]

12. Hey! I have friends in the guano business and we're tired of this desecration of bat shit.

Bat shit is a perfectly respectable source of nitrogen when sterilized.

You couldn't grow anything on this. It's too toxic.

mulatto

One thing I never, never, never thought I'd recycle from my parents is the belief that there are people whose mouths need to be washed out with soap.

[athenasatanjesus]

13. a mulatto an albino a mosquito a libido

I think this sentence should be ebough to rebutt the petition.

[Chemisse]

14. 'Nuff said.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

31. yo, Gord-O... You say potato, I say potahto. You say mulatto...

I say FUCK YOU.

[JNathanK]

16. I don't believe in eugenics, but sometimes I wonder whether or not some people should be sterilized.

Whoever wrote that lawsuit is a genuine fuckwhit.

[uppityperson]

17. k&r for broader exposure to the nuts. No words either.

[Cleita]

18. Mulatto? The last time I heard that word was in 1948.n/t

[csziggy]

27. I find it in some old census from about 1870 or so.

Not in this century or the last one!

[Odin2005]

19. Oy, the stupid, IT BURNS!!!

[hobbit709]

35. Unfortunately it never burns the actual STOOPID.

If that level of stupid was immediately and excruciatingly painful to the person involved, there might be less of it.

[2labslib]

20. Well...

They are getting closer to telling us the real reason they despise him.
Racist pricks.

[TheKentuckian]

28. That was my thought. It is there plain as day.

[Sarah Ibarruri]

21. I'm convinced that right wingholes are psychos nt

[nanabugg]

22. No. Just racists. nt

[Obamacare]

33. Racist are psychos

[BattyDem]

24. Um ... that's why we have amendments!

Once an amendment is ratified, it becomes part of the Constitution. It becomes the law of the land. In other words, Gordon ... it's a swing and a miss!

[The Genealogist]

29. The gloves are off now, it seems

At least this person isn't hiding behind code words (like "blah people&quot and dog whistles.

I hope whatever judge gets this piece of crap of a case throws it out, and deals this awful man some kind of penalty for wasting limited public judicial budgets with worthless cases.

[liberalhistorian]

32. Every single birther suit and every single suit

filed in a state that challenges Obama's eligibility to be on that state's presidential ballot needs to be immediately thrown out and the filers slapped with Rule 11 sanctions and declared vexations litigators. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. IN. EVERY. SINGLE. STATE. PERIOD. ENOUGH ALREADY. STOP THIS SHIT ONCE AND FOR ALL. Enough, enough, enough, enough, enough, enough, enough, enough, ad infinitum.

And even after years of (formerly by now) being in the legal field and after four years and counting of being married to an attorney, I have almost NEVER read such utter, complete, total, absurd, Alice-in-Wonderland bullshit as this pig vomit. They're not even hiding their hate and racism anymore. Apparently, this idiot has never heard of or understood "amendment", nor does he understand that the constitution he claims to revere provides for amendments and spends a good deal of time mapping out the possible processes for them, And how in the holy fucking hell is the 14th Amendment NOT ratified? What all this increasingly-convoluted and idiotic birther bullshit it basically boils down to is that he and his ilk simply cannot handle the fact that there's a black man sitting BEHIND the desk in the Oval Office instead of cleaning it.

[friedgreentomatoes]

30. Who is Gordon Warren Epperly? n/t

[craigmatic]

34. Black people have been here since before there was a United States.

[madokie]

36. He can park his feet under my table anytime he wants too

My wife would make both of us proud as the girl can do some kind of cooking. You know the kind that makes you go back for seconds and even thirds when there's any left.

I love my President

Shit like this does have a tendency to piss one right the fuck off doesn't it

[Kablooie]

38. the [purported] ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment,

The article says the actual text reads "the [purported] ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment"
So this imbecile is implying that the 14th amendment wasn't even officially ratified.

Talk about racism. Sheesh.

[demmiblue]

41. Wtf is right.

Racist knuckledraggers.
