People like me? Really? And what kind of person am I? You wouldn't have the first clue.
In this particular case, there are relatively few facts behind the "Birther's" claims, all of which have been refuted by multiple sources, both in the media and by the Government of Hawaii. There's nothing left but to continue to beat the dead horse. Those that continue to believe in the whole "Birther" conspiracy are made to look the fool now because they are fools. There was, at one point, a viable doubt that warranted attention, but that time has long since played out. Many on this list are also extreme righties, blind to facts just the same as the extreme lefties, though the facts they are blind to differ. The only differences between Conservatives and Liberals are: 1) which rights they want to take from the people 2) which economic segment of the population they want to give tax breaks to vs. which segment they want to raise taxes on 3) how they want to spend the tax revenue. An overly simplistic view perhaps, but that's what it all seems to boil down to.
