I am really very disappointed to see so much infighting among radio personalities and between attorneys who have brought legal action questioning Obama‘s eligibility.

Very typical crank behavior. They're on the same side, and yet they fight over the smallest, insignificant detail. Each one of them thinks that their own version of the conspiracy theory is the only correct one, and anyone who disagrees with their version must be in on the conspiracy. This pattern comes up again, and again.

I find it very amusing. It's a lot like visiting a freak show at a circus.

Instead of "crank", substitute any designation that characterizes a faction (with sub-factions) whose existence and identity relies heavily on philosophical idealism. Infighting ranges from petty to serious, depending upon how much real power is at stake. I'm sure I don't have to point out that it is the LEFT that is most riddled with this malady.

If you want to see a real freak show, try observing the petty nonsense that occurs among faculty in a teaching institute. That would be a good example to point out, but maybe you have never had the chance or motivation to analyze such behavior. The nastiest of infighting can be found among collectivists.

By all means, take the time to snark on something that probably doesn't concern you at all, and, by all means, continue to overlook the very obvious examples of behavioral and philosophical differences between BIG NUTHIN' (that 1 followed by a lot of little zeroes) and our founding fathers. If you were really such a perceptive psychologist, you would not be so content with BHO's lack of cooperation with the American citizenry. Unless, of course, you are a collectivist yourself.
