Obama’s birth certificate is the emperors new clothes. We’ve been conditioned to repeat that it’s delusional to point out that he’s not wearing any. This is an old Hans Christian Anderson fable that’s relevant today as it ever has been. It was incumbent on obama to demonstrate his qualification for the office. It was never our task to demonstrate that he is not.

In the Anderson fable the weavers promised the emporer clothes that they said would be invisible to people who are stupid, incompetent or crazy. So here’s obama parading down the street with a birth certificate saying he was born in hawaii. All his records are sealed tighter than the Kennedy Assassination. His college transcripts are sealed. And anyone who dares point out that he is born in kenya and his family is in kenya and that he’s a muslim raised in indonesia. Instantly labeled as ‘delusional’, ‘crazy’, ‘birther’, ‘incompetent’, ‘stupid’. It’s not necessary for everyone to subscribe to the questionable heritage of the Kenyan that occupied the whitehouse. And there’s bigger fish to fry now that we’ve rid ourselves of that tyrant so i’d prefer not to dwell on it. But lets not bully and push around the ones who are willing to speak up.

At the end of the Anderson story the emperor parades down the street and nobody dares to say that they do not see any suit of clothes on him. They’re all afraid that they will be seen as stupid. Finally a child cries out, “But he isn’t wearing anything at all!”. So discounting the fact that this was posted in the “Bloggers and Personal Forum” it’s probably okay to point out about the blog pimping. But lets be careful that we don’t succumb to the gas lighting of the current culture. Who so successfully and carefully concealed the true identity of the Kenyan sock puppet that even the chosen label it a “cherished delusion”. Perhaps we should examine our own ‘delusions’ more carefully prior to casting shade on other peoples viewpoints.
