Bill Maher likes to joke and make snide comments, but he's pretty dead on with this assessment of the "birthers". This meme keeps spreading and while it is currently poisoning the GOP, there are enough of those assholes to screw up the rest of the country.
In a recent poll, 58% of these Republican cretins either doubt or are not sure that our president is an American citizen.
So wait a minute, the party that ran a candidate that LITERALLY was not born in the United States (though was on a military base) now contests the birthplace of a guy born in Hawaii? Oh yeah, I forgot, they are racist pricks who think he was born in Kenya.
The ranks of GOP politicians who refuse to speak out against this utter crap grows daily, with Missouri's Roy Blount amongst those "casting doubt".
So basically, these guys either believe this crap or are hedging their bets to keep votes without looking like utter traitors. Either way, THESE are the jerks who ran under the banner "Country First" in the last election? If they truly believed in their nation, they'd fight these lies, call the traitors who believe them the seditious bastards they are, and then they should probably quit for giving aid and comfort to the enemies of America.
Not that I have any strong feelings about this or anything.
