LePage is in error having drunk the Birther Kool Aid. There IS no difference. His daughters are NBC. Dasit!

Your arrogance is staggering. You claim to know more about how LePage’s daughters gained citizenship than does their own father. Your personal views trump his real life experience. Talk about blind ideologues; you make them look open-minded.

I’ve encountered this kind of ‘logic’ before. It’s the way Obots argued in favor of Obama. Their personal beliefs trumped any and all evidence. It’s irrationality at its finest. Iow, it’s insisting the world operate according to your personal beliefs, and if the facts indicate otherwise, you merely toss the facts out the window.

‘LePage is in error having drunk the Birther Kool Aid.’

This is a nonsensical statement. If LePage had said, ‘According to my theory of citizenship, my daughters would have to be naturalized before they could be US citizens,’ you might have a point.

But that’s not what he said at all.

LePage said that as a matter of FACT—i.e.: as a matter of historical record—his daughters had to be naturalized before they could be US citizens. There is no Kool Aid involved in relating historical facts. It’s just a matter of saying, “For the record, this is what happened.”

If I said, ‘Before I could get a prescription, I had to see a Dr,’ would you accuse me of drinking Kool Aid? Yet that’s all LePage did: he made public the factual/historical method by which his Canadian-born daughters became US citizens.

If there’s any Kool Aid drinking going on, you’re the one chugging it. According to you, what factually happened couldn’t have happened, because it violates your theory. Chug chug, man, does that Cruz-flavored Kool Aid hit the spot!
