I have been doing more blog reading lately, rather than blog writing and for some reason, I find myself continuously drawn into conservative blogs. It’s like how you just have to watch a horrific car accident on the side of the street. You simply cannot help yourself. But while there are political topics that conservative bloggers could very well be blogging about, they are either not watching the news or not using their computers to stay up to date with politics because a great deal of them are still claiming that Obama isn’t an American citizen.
“Birthers” are a small, but unrelenting and vocal crowd of right-wing activists that truly believe that Obama was not born in the United States and therefore cannot be our president. Even though the question of Obama’s citizenship has repeatedly been put to rest by Hawaii state officials, where Obama’s birth certificate and all other credible evidence show that he was born in Honolulu on August 4, 1961.
The whole birthers “movement,” if you even want to call it that, comes down to the right still being pissed off that John McCain didn’t win the presidency. Couple the fact that we have a Democratic president with the fact that the right-wing media has non-stop spouted fear-mongering hate speech and racism from the onset of the 2008 presidential election and it has yet to stop.
Fact and reason are undoubtedly lost on “birthers” and instead of slowly burrowing themselves back into a hole in the ground and admitting that they had made a huge deal out of something so absurd, they are continuing their “fight.” But it has come to the point where right-wing trainwrecks we make fun of and wonder how the hell it is that they are still looked at as being a prominent political commentator are telling the birthers that it’s time to move on.
Prime example: Ann Coulter.
You can 
Yeah, she was even with Hillary Clinton for a while, but that's just because she was so against Obama.
Hi
Just give time to yourself. You are doing everything for the three basic necessities-food,home,cloths. If you didn't enjoy that than you are not human being. Just stay cool.remember-Work Hard, Party Harder.
Whether he his a citizen or not as long as he he's looking after our country the right way, I think that is all that should count.
thanks for the info. it open our eyes!
The racist undertones of the birthers' claims is what really gets me. If he were 100% white and his father were from Switzerland, would this argument have prevailed so long?
Now it is our turn to drown out the hate. Find a way — whether it is contribution here that sends a message to Miss Coulter and those who applauded her (which, of course, I prefer) or whether it is a statement on this blog or others or all of the above — but please find a way not to sit silent in acceptance. It doesn't change until we say we will not be silent when this happens.
