"will ignore" comes close to I do not care so I picked that. ALthough I do wonder how many of these people calling birthers a bunch of loons are the same ones claiming Bush lied for war,Bush stole the elections, Bush masterminded 9-11 or some other retarded leftist conspiracy. I do get a kick out of those people poking fun at Birther-tards.

Actually most of the people pointing at birthers and laughing are most likely conservatives. According to most neocons, liberals are not smart enough to know the difference.
 
While I'm not a birther, I get real tired of the "proof" that Obama was born in the US is the news paper announcement. According to the news paper in McAllen Texas, I graduated high school in 1995. I graduated in Kansas...but the paper in Texas printed it because my grandparents called it in.

Any one could have called in the announcement in Hawaii. Since Obama's grandparents lived there, it would not be unreasonable to assume they called it in.

This whole contraversy does detract from the debate. Especially since some assume that most conservatives agree with birthers. I'd rather that from the 2012 election forward, we require all candidates to provide proof of eligibility to each state in which their name appears on the ballet. Nothing too difficult, just a long form birth certificate and a verifiable living history to show that the candidate is at least 35 and lived in the US for fourteen years.
 
All of this crap does nothing to solve our nation's problems - nothing.
First off, we must know the truth, not political rhetoric.
I think that the economic truth is directly linked to the balance of trade deficit.
We do not need lies about Bush or Obama or even George Wallace.

Take the poll.

Either way, maybe we can move on after whatever happens here.

At first I was totally like "WTF does Abercrombie and Finch have anything to do with it . . . "
And I was relieved to find out we're not discussing a pricky fashion store.

And otherwise - don't care. I already had my opinion and his opinion doesn't really mean anything on top of it :shrug:

While I agree that the birther thing is very stupid and politically motivated (of course it is) I fail to see how his personal relationship and friendship with his parent's is suppose to be more solid.

The best thing to do with the birther movement is ignore it. There is no reasoning with such stupidity and any attempt is basically a waste of effort.

Your post has nothing to do with the OP.

"We do not need lies about Bush or Obama or even Goerge Wallace" - indeed ties directly to the OP.

I read the article, and don't see how it's related.

You don't see how a request - no - a demand for truth . . . relates to the OP concerning Obama's Birther-Conspirists?

The Birthers "want the truth" and insist everyone's lying.
The Believers "have the truth" and insist the birther's are lying.

"truth" is at the core of everyone's actions and opinions on this entire issue.

Except Abercrombie - he just sounds sick of it . . . and so are many others.

Congress passed a declaration that recognized Obama as being an American-born citizen . . . as far as I'm concerned that's that. For how long it might take for this to actually go to the SCOTUS he'll be out of office already anyway.
