I have been called out, people. Bruce had to go clear back to January to find a political post to share with me the following:
It is not for lack of material. My husband can attest to this, as I usually bombard him in the morning with a litany of my thoughts on various happenings. It's a time thing. I usually don't have enough of it. Just so happens I have a few seconds now, though.
Did you know there are folks called birthers who have latched on to this idea that Obama is not a natural born citizen and therefore ineligible to be our commander-in-chief? Well, probably you know this but I find it significant that they now have a name. I still don't understand why the Certificate of Live Birth isn't acceptable proof. And I am unable to accept statements of its purported lack of authenticity by people who have never seen the actual document. Where else does a Certificate of Live Birth come from except from the state in which you were born? You can question the reasons for Obama's refusal to issue a copy of his actual birth certificate but without proof it's all just innuendo, and not terribly productive.
As Darr put it over dinner tonight when I questioned why Obama might not want to release his birth certificate to put an end to the debate, he said "Maybe he's been busy."

I keep trying to leave a comment about how I'm not going to leave a 10-page comment regarding how much these birthers drive me nuts, but in doing so I end up starting a 30-page dissertation on exactly that subject.
So I'll leave it at: these people drive me absolutely nuts.
Lou Dobbs has been saying recently that people are asking a lot of questions about the birth certificate. Yes, the same people who want to know where the sun goes at night.

Yay! Along with that good news, I raise you the following, which I find myself delighted by: http://tinyurl.com/yfpuq28

These buggers sussed this right after the decision ccame down, it appears.
Methinks it's because Murray Hill Inc. was recently rejected when it (they?) tried to register to vote. Oh, and they have a Facebook page and there is a human representing the entity.
Dogs with blogs, Spacebook pages, all the trappings of humanity! It's all publicity fodder, Lawd love-'em.
You need another political post anchor soon, yes? Maybe if "Deem and Pass" gets used?
And yet another update to the birther-biz:

Hawaii just sez, "stop asking us for this document, already"
