Luke Scott, of the Baltimore Birthers, want President Obama's birth certificate verified



Well he is at it again, professional baseball player Luke Scott of the Baltimore Birthers (Orioles) has spoken out about President Obama's long form birth certificate telling the Kansas City Star:

“(President Obama’s) birth certificate has yet to be validated. If they can counterfeit $100 bills, I think it’s a million times easier to counterfeit a birth certificate, if you ask me. So, all it is, let’s just see if it’s real. Anybody can produce a document, so let’s check it out.”

Scott had previously made headlines in December when he revealed himself to be a birther and for calling a Dominican teammate a savage and throwing banana chips at his helmet:

“Felix is my friend,” he says. “I give him a hard time. The reason why I give him a hard time is because there are certain people you deal with and you go up and talk to them, and it doesn’t work. They don’t understand. … I tell him about some of the ways he’s acted: ‘Look, you’re acting like an animal, you’re acting like a savage.’”

He also explained why he throws banana chips into the helmet of his Dominican teammate.

“Here are my banana chips to remind him that whenever he acts like an animal, ‘Hey, that’s what other people are thinking. They’re just not telling you, but that’s what they’re thinking about. And I’m telling you so that you’re aware of that so you can make a cognitive decision to not behave like that.’”

Luke Scott, this guy must make the people of Baltimore, the Orioles and Major League Baseball proud.

1. I do not look to sports figures for intellectual analysis.

This is why. The guy is all brawn, no brain.

DB: So how's Obama doing?

LS: Obama ... hmm ... Obama does not represent America. Nor does he represent anything what our forefathers stood for. This country is basically built on an attitude. It's a way of life. It's not because you're born here. It's not that you're supposed to take from those who have and give to those who haven't. That kills a country. It killed Russia.

I have friends of mine who are in the ministry who in churches in Russia. If they can describe in one , it's "messed up beyond repair."

That's what communism does. Cuba, Venezuela. People are trying to escape these lands like a plague. What would make a human being swim 90 miles in shark-infested waters on a raft made of tires and planks? To leave their culture, their family, their language, their way of life. Everything they've ever known. What would make someone do that?

You don't see people in America doing that. There's no one here in America swimming the Pacific Ocean — or the Atlantic, or the Caribbean — to leave this place. The reason why is because of the freedom. Freedom for a man to mark out his own destiny. It's not, "Hey, you have so much." Hey, that person worked for that. That's not to be taken and given to someone who didn't put in the time, the effort, and do his part.

Obama, he doesn't represent that. He represents, "Hey, everyone. Give me votes and I'll give you stuff." And there's even people on TV who , "Hey, who you voting for?"
"I'm voting for Obama."
"Why?"
"So I can get more free stuff."

That's not what makes this country great. That's what tears down a people, tears down nations. Hence, the problem we're having in this country, where we're experiencing unemployment. We're experiencing all of these negative things that are happening in our land as a direct result of that type of attitude — of too much government involvement, of moral decay, and of people lacking honor and integrity.

Eighty years ago, 50 years ago, a man would walk up to another man and go in for loan. He'd extend his hand, he'd shake it and he'd look at the man and he'd say, "I'll pay this back." He would do it. You couldn't even ... to even mention that today ... is that a cartoon fantasy? That's how far we are removed.

8. I'd say someone should take a baseball bat to Luke's head...

But it'd be useless, since there really is nothing there to smash.

9. gee ... wasn't there some sort of argument a while back

about celebrities and sports figures who don't know WHAT THE F*CK THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT becoming "leading voices" in politics?

Oh, I guess if you are looking for $$$ from Repugs, it's okay ...
