Birthers

My Kenyan Birth Certificate

Birthers-- those who claim against all evidence that President Barack Obama are just frigging loonies. Even a preemptory look at birther queen Orly Taitz and The Donald proves that beyond all doubt. I mean Orly believes Obama has dozens of social security numbers and is a secret homosexual. Donald believes his comb-over isn't noticeable.

Obama has made his long-form Hawaii birth certificate available, and two Honolulu newspapers from 1960 announce his birth-- so unless his parents concocted an amazing plot to fake his birth and plant newspaper notices just in case their new multiracial baby boy might one day grow up to be President of the United States, birthers are just flat-out nuts.

What motivates them, of course, is flat-out racism. Unlike Obama, who was born in the United States, Senator John McCain was born in the Canal Zone, which was a U.S. territory and not part of the United States proper, was never seriously questioned about his eligibility (he was in fact eligible to run for President; the founding fathers saw to that). Why do you think that is?

The answer is simple. Think about it.

The Republicans who have and continue to jump on the Birther bandwagon should be ashamed. Way ashamed.

Most recent to queue up are Richard Hudson, Dr. John Wheatly, and Jim Pendergraph of North Carolina. All three are Congressional candidates. All three are Republicans.

They join the likes of Tate, Trump, Rick Perry, Sarah Palin, Mike Huckabee, Joe Arpaio, Michelle Bachman, and other low-lifes.
