Re: And Then There's This
It's quite impossible to refute paranoid fantasies, as you'd well know if you weren't suffering from paranoid fantasies.

Ridicule is the only weapon which can be used against unintelligible propositions. Ideas must be distinct before reason can act upon them; and no man ever had a distinct idea of the trinity. It is the mere Abracadabra of the mountebanks calling themselves the priests of Jesus. -- Thomas Jefferson
For we know that our patchwork heritage is a strength, not a weakness. We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus -- and non-believers. -- Barack Obama
We see monsters where science shows us windmills. -- Phat

Re: And Then There's This
Wow.
You're so far gone, you no longer even recognize the words "paranoid fantasy." Seriously, old bean, get some medical attention.

Re: Long Form Hold Back
Let me explain one little part of that.
Across the bottom, you will see
This copy serves as prima facie evidence of the fact of birth in any court proceeding.
What that means is that if anyone questions President Obama's place of birth, all he has to do is produce that document. The burden then shifts on anyone challenging his citizenship to produce facts, not argument, speculation, fantasy or wishes, to refute the evidence.

Re: Long Form Hold Back
Prima facie evidence, Buz. That means present facts, not speculation, fantasy or wishes. Any facts?
