I really don’t know why the big names are ignoring this unless it is because it is so far fetched they just don’t believe it. In my opinion they are afraid to touch this because so many people on the left keep implying that it is a ridiculous claim....and they don’t want to be put into the category of “far out wacko’s”. But one has to wonder just how much investigating they have done as to either prove or disprove the allegation......
Some just don’t want the tag “conspiracy theorist”....the MSM has so much control over this country in what people hear and think it easily tags someone and then it sticks whether valid or not.........

Well, I can think of at least a couple of reasons why Rush and Sean may be refraining from touching it.

One is that it does really sound crazy until you look into it in depth. But surely that could be solved simply by reporting that a lot of people are bringing lawsuits, but refraining from saying whether or not they think the charges are true. Surely it’s news that there are so many suits, some by prominent people. And it seems legitimate to ask WHY DOESN’T OBAMA SIMPLY PRODUCE HIS BIRTH RECORDS? Why spend hundreds of thousands on legal fees when all he has to do is cough up a real birth certificate? So I’m not sure that’s enough to explain their silence.

The second is that Obama has warned them that he will nail them if they touch it, perhaps by imposing the Fairness Doctrine on them. Would Rush and Sean back down in the face of such credible threats? I don’t know. But they might go cautiously.

Certainly it’s enough to explain Fox News, and therefore maybe Sean. Murdoch was badly burned by clinton, and he has shown a number of times that he is unwilling to put his empire on the line again against such threats of regulatory and IRS persecution.
