We all remember “Rather-Gate” and the faked “documents” regarding Pres. George W. Bush’s service in the Texas Air National Guard … Oh, how the MSM pushed and pushed that.

At least George W. Bush could produce a valid birth certificate. At least his college transcripts were open.

Correct me if I am wrong, gentlemen, but do you not need to show a birth certificate when registering for the draft?

Here’s a little background on Big Bad Bambi daring to say he wanted to join the military, but passed because there was no war. The meat of the controversy is in the piece below the video.

Antiwar Barack Obama says he once considered military career

(L.A.Times)

Appearing on ABC-TV’s “This Week.” Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, who built much of his early campaign momentum on an early speech against the Iraq war, let it be known that he once considered a military career.

But because there was no war going on at the time, the candidate said he decided against the military and chose instead to continue his higher education, including Harvard Law School.

On Sunday’s program, host George Stephanopoulos asked the freshman senator in a taped interview if he’d ever thought about military service.

“You know,” said Obama as if his reply might surprise people. “I actually did. I had to sign up for Selective Service when I graduated from high school. And I was growing up in Hawaii. And I have friends whose parents were in the military. There are a lot of Army, military bases there.

“And I actually always thought of the military as an ennobling and, you know, honorable option. But keep in mind that I graduated in 1979. The Vietnam War had come to an end. We weren’t engaged in an active military conflict at that point. And so, it’s not an option that I ever decided to pursue.” [ ... ]

EXCLUSIVE: Did Next Commander-in-Chief Falsify Selective Service Registration? Never Actually Register? Obama’s Draft Registration Raises Serious Questions

By Debbie Schlussel

Did President-elect Barack Hussein Obama commit a federal crime in September of this year? Or did he never actually register and, instead, did friends of his in the Chicago federal records center, which maintains the official copy of his alleged Selective Service registration commit the crime for him?

It’s either one or the other, as indicated by the release of Barack Obama’s official Selective Service registration for the draft. A friend of mine, who is a retired federal agent, spent almost a year trying to obtain this document through a Freedom of Information Act request, and, after much stonewalling, finally received it and released it to me.

But the release of Obama’s draft registration and an accompanying document, posted below, raises more questions than it answers. And it shows many signs of fraud, not to mention putting the lie to Obama’s claim that he registered for the draft in June 1979, before it was required by law.

The official campaign for President may be over. But Barack Obama’s Selective Service registration card and accompanying documents show that questions about him are not only NOT over, but if the signature on the document is in fact his, our next Commander-in-Chief may have committed a federal crime in 2008, well within the statute of limitations on the matter. If it is not his, then it’s proof positive that our next Commander-in-Chief never registered with the Selective Service as required by law. By law, he was required to register and was legally able to do so until the age of 26.
