Taking a minute to let you know that I realize you’ve put considerable time into that last post. I’ve been struggling to make priority for the time to get my answers down in this form, especially since I’m trying to ease away from my Birtherism hobby. In any case, I haven’t forgotten, and may yet one day respond.

I’m stopping in just now to say that Gallups’ latest comments released this morning have us looking at “sooner than later.” That, combined with the fact that Mark Gillar was tweeting the phrase “in a few weeks” not many days ago, has me feeling fairly sure that my prediction that we wouldn’t hear anything until mid-May was probably on the optimistic side. Perhaps it would be safe to start thinking no earlier than June now.

As before though, they haven’t been backing off on the superlatives when describing the significance of their findings, which makes it challenging for me to convince the giddy adolescent inside of me that it’s still unwise to have heightened expectations.

Time will tell, and in the vast meantime, who knows, I might just manage to find plenty of time to pen a proper response to your post #65.

From my perspective, over the past 18 months Zullo/Gallups have made repeated, hyped pronouncements about "something big" about to happen related to the supposed Obama investigation. And in every instance, the claimed "big event" has failed to materialize. And usually when the time has passed, Z/G say nothing about it; they just distract from the failed promise by hyping something new.

And the supposed "universe-shattering" evidence fits this pattern to a "T." For about a year, Z/G were hyping about how they had irrefutable proof that the WHLFBC was "100 percent a forgery." Then last year two bloggers demonstrated how every so-called anomaly in the digital LFBC was reproducible using a Xerox Workstation. A period of weeks followed where Z/G sputtered around trying to pretend that was not significant. Then, at the end of that period, Voila! -- suddenly the "universe shattering evidence" claim emerges.

In short, every time they get caught failing to deliver on one promise, they distract from that by holding up something new and doing the "lookey here! see what great new thing we have!"

So what I'm trying to get from you is some insight as to why you give Zullo any credibility at all at this point. "Not till June" makes it sound like you believe they actually are going to reveal something. Given their track record, why do you believe that?
