So Mark Steyn says:
“I’m an Occam’s Razor man. The more obvious explanation of the variable first line in the eternally shifting sands of Obama’s biography is that, rather than pretending to have been born in Hawaii, he’s spent much of his life pretending to have been born in Kenya.”
************************************************************
I’m disappointed in Mark Steyn’s “reasoning”.
So the fact that Obama had posted to his website a purported “certified Hawaii birth certificate” that turned out (upon examination by expert document examiners) to be a not particularly well done forgery must have been done solely so folks might think he was born in Kenya. Yeah, that’s by far the most logical explanation of Obama’s operatives manufacturing and posting that forgery—so it MUST be true using Steyn’s Occam’s Razor methodology. A contrary explanation that perhaps they wanted to set up “support” for the supposition that Obama was born in Hawaii is ridiculous on its face and therefore not likely to be true using Occam’s Razor rule. To have just a little credence in this latter explanation must mean such a person is simply a crazed “birther”.
There are numerous other little similar indicators—the “most obvious” explanation of their existence certainly must be a life-long (well, maybe only until 2007 when the possibility of the Presidency occurred to him and/or his handlers) pretension by Obama to have been born in Kenya.
Yes, very logical Mr. Steyn. And very courageous of you to step forward with this latest “obvious” explanation. Yes folks, pay no attention to all this smoke seeping out in different places—there’s no fire; just perhaps someone trying to make you believe in an imaginary fire! Isn’t that just so obvious?
If Obama really was born in Hawaii, and not Kenya, why go to the trouble of posting a crudely made forged birth certificate?
