Obama postpones Asia trip

Washington (AP) – President Barack Obama has postponed his trip to Asia until June so he can stay in Washington for a possible Sunday vote on his health care overhaul plan.
White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said Thursday the president is disappointed and regrets having to delay his visits to Indonesia and Australia but has told the leaders of those nations that health care is a crucial priority.
Obama had already delayed the trip to Indonesia and Australia, pushing back a Thursday departure until Sunday so he could help Democrats on Capitol Hill rally last-minute votes for the plan.
Gibbs said that while White House staff had tried to find a way to push the trip back another few days, the president decided Thursday morning that the best course of action was to reschedule both stops until June.
House Democrats believe they are on track to vote Sunday on a $940 billion health care bill that will expand coverage to millions. If the bill passes, the Senate will begin considering changes to the bill next week.

For those who think this is a “fringe issue”, answer these questions..
1. Obama has fought over 30 lawsuits for his long form birth records, college records and the like. True or false? Back up you answer with fact.(The answer is he has)
2. His mother renounced American citizenship when she expatriated herself and Barack to Indonesia, thus losing "natural born" citizenship status forever, because once natural born status has been revoked, it can never be reinstated. True or false, back up your answer with fact. (The answer is yes, she did)
3. The democrats demanded these same records of McCain and Tom delay which they turned over without fuss or fanfare. True or false? Back up your answer with fact. (The answer is those situations happened. Those are examples of how elected leaders behave when citizenship records are demanded. They don't spend ONE MILLION DOLLARS - also public record since he's using democratic funds - to keep anyone from seeing them)
The only rule of this game: the responses to the questions comprised of, “Nobody cares”, “He already showed his citizenship documents” (wrong, and nobody pays lawyers to fight something in court they have already conceded) and “He’s already the President, get over it” or the same don’t count as real answers
Additionally:
Obama has (must have) a passport issued by a country other than the U.S. Long before he was President, Obama traveled to Pakistan during a period when travel to Pakistan was banned by the U.S. State Department. This is 100%, date and history cross-indexed unambiguous public-record fact. So what country does his passport say he’s from? We don’t know because he won’t allow his lawyers to disclose it.
It’s possible that Obama obtained college admittance and scholarships based on representing himself as a foreign student. This is the only plausible explanation (given the other evidence) as to why he is the only U.S. president to take legal action to hide all of his college records from scrutiny (not only birth but COLLEGE records, as well).
On a side note, Obama (aka Barry Soetoro) must have committed perjury when he signed his Illinois Bar application, which claimed that he had never used any name other than Barack Obama, even though he went by several different names, including Barry Soetoro. Fact. There is no way around this one.
Tell everyone you know that this is a real issue and explain why.
What is Obama sending his lawyers out to keep hidden? It's time we all asked together in a very
loud voice.
does not necessarily make him a citizen. If he did indeed become a citizen of Indonesia, as some have claimed, then he is no longer a natural born citizen under the law. This is not a minor issue. Especially when you can see on a regular basis how his time living in Africa has created and driven his agenda.
I’m sick of hearing first African American he is not he is a biracial it a pitty he is ashamed of the color of the woman who gave birth to him
will this leftist idealogue ever list to the people?
will congress ever listen to the people?
the answer is no. its time to vote out every last democrat in the house and senate.
then we can start chopping off all the pet projects and programs that just waste our hard earned money. stop giviny any money abroad until we are debt free. its time to think of this nation first before others.
After all since the economy and jobs do, why not??
I thought for sure Israel and Palestine, Iran and North Korea would all be settled by now.... I guess they didn't listen to his campaign speeches and get in line...
It sure as heck did between 2000-2008.
