"According to David Frum, Newt Gingrich’s comments were made to promote the “birther” nonsense that says Barack Obama was not born in the U.S., and D’Souza’s article was written for “race-baiting” purposes:"

Pot, meet kettle.

Funny how they throw such fits over an article most people would never have seen. It's like back in high school when every kid rushed out to read the books that were deemed controversial.

Frum can’t or won’t explain the Obamian bizaro behaviour so d’Sousa must be at fault.

Frum is a pseudo Republican and should have no standing in the party... Disregard anything that he says.

David Frum lacks sunlight. Facts of the matter are as per D’Souza that culturally, Obama is not an American. He spent his formative years in foreign lands and cultures foreign to the US of A, thus his framework in which he views America is not at all consistent with a understanding of American history and culture. Ask him to recite the Koran and he can.

Can little Mikie from Montana, or San Antonio Rose do that?

Politically I have far more faith in Newt than I do Frum. Newt has his flaws (global warming) but he's still arguably the quickest mind the conservatives have.

It was a very thoughtful and understated article. The hypothesis was well-supported. I would have given it an “A”.

The house of cards is crumbling, IMHO.

I has nothing to do with hatred. It has to do with Democrat talking points because Dinesh has gotten too close to the fire.

Well, I don’t think Newt needs to apologize for defending the white race, Christians and western culture, all of which he sees being dragged through the mud by scumsucking lower life forms that are now running amok.

The flak is always heaviest over the target. Dinesh is right on in his assessment about Obastard.

Dinesh must have been right over the target with all the flak thrown up.

Because d'Souza just tore a strip off of The Lizard King's human disguise.

And all the reptile worshipers are terrified that we are about to declare Reptilian Hunting Day.

once again David Frum demonstrates that he is the kind of token CINO so useful to the media masters and the Democrat Pary

Frum, Kathleen Parker, David Brooks, et al serve up the useful attacks on conservatives which are so useful to the MSM

Perhaps the dems ought to concede slightly..."Yes, President Obama has an anti-colonial worldview, but it's a Hawaiian anti-colonial worldview!"

Why would you question David Frum? He is well-known as a sell-out who will work for any side that hires him. Like David Gergen, he is a wordsmith who has never done anything of substance himself, other than stroke his paymaster. When he wrote a few speeches for Dubya he was "conservative." More recently he has been indeterminate but trending ever leftward as he follows the money.

D'Souza is ten times the thinker Frum is, and this fiasco of a response shows it.

David Frum, David Brock, David Brooks, David Stockman...
Anybody else sense a pattern here?

“According to David Frum, Newt Gingrich’s comments were made to promote the “birther” nonsense...
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

1) Fact: It is a very simple and inexpensive matter to **prove** one’s natural born status. Unanointed Americans routinely do so for many reasons.

2)Fact: A normal, natural born, American president would be **HONORED** to promptly prove (with the best evidence) that he was eligible to be Commander in Chief and president.

3) Fact: A usurper would let an military officer be court martialed and would “lawyer-up” as Obama has done to prevent the release of common documents that ordinary Americans routinely provide for many reasons.

Conclusion: Obama is a full blown NUT or he is a usurper and is not a natural born citizen. In fact, he may not even be a citizen of any sort!

I think D'Souza's argument is good but I think he puts too much stock in "Dreams of..." Obama, in my mind, didn't write that book. Bill Ayers did. Secondly, Obama doesn't have integrity. That suggests a flaw rooted in narcissism. If there is a real country Obama is concerned about it is the state of "I." The state of I is not concerned about a post colonial power in Africa. The state of I is concerned about colonizing America, winning America to him. The father didn't give him a political cause but a neurosis. It's not political theater as played out with other actors for the good or bad of the country -- it's personal acquisitions to his own glory and, more important, to expand and fill the insatiable imperialistic state of I. Obama is the fawn playing Hamlet with no country of his own -- yes, there is a ghost of the father in Hamlet -- but that is not where Hamlet's or Obama's true motives come from. The father starts him off, it starts with deceit, with mother problems, with acting, with wanting to usurp the king. Ultimately, both want to fill their appetites and longs -- become complete and whole as a person -- and the tragedy is they can't.

There is a problem in the state of Denmark I.

Lets compare Frums accomplishments to Dinesh d’Souza. There is no comparison except that they are both not born here in the US. Frum is increasingly irrelevant as the Tea Party steam roller heads down the road ruining his beloved middle ground soft speak style of governing on the right.
