Shut them up? Obama want the Birthers to shout from the rooftops, the better to tar all conservatives and Republicans with the broad brush of crackpottery.
Oh, by all means. Be it far from us to ever question The One. Why, that would just be racist!
Just who are you afraid of being thought badly of? Liberals? Progressives? Democrats? The MSM? You think they'll think better of us, if we go into agreement with their unsupported arguments that Obama is a legal president - when the overwhelming evidence suggests that he is not?
Do you believe that it's more honorable to ignore all of the evidence, and compromise with what you clearly see before your very own eyes?
Do you believe that any US president would allow such a boiling controversy to continue over his root bona fides if he had the power to stop it by simply releasing the most basic of documents?
To ignore such logic is the real crackpottery, my friend.
