Does Obama need the birthers? I think he needs them. Badly. Here's why:

Posted on 02/16/2010 6:06:07 AM PST by Halfmanhalfamazing

Obama recently said this:

"Surely you can question my policies without questions my faith, or for that matter my citizenship."

This quote is significant, and IMHO desperate.

Progressives play political games. Especially with words; political correctness is only one fascet of this. Many times, they throw stuff out hoping someone will pick it up. I think that's what this is. They are out there thinking "pick it up, PICK IT UP!" whether it gets picked up or not in a day, week, month, or more.

For all the anger that conservatives had that the progressive media didn't go after van jones for a multitude of things, it was that Jones was a 'truther' that did him in. 'Truther' has become synonymous with whackjob, and the media have been successful in getting 'birther' to also be synonymous with whacko.

As the beneficiary of most of the media's propaganda, surely Obama knows this and is in a position to capitalize upon it.

“False. It’s not helping not 1 bit. Anyone who thinks that the “Birther” eligibility issue will propel Obama to highs in popularity against his failed policies and administration is not looking at the facts and are just silly fool. I want these same fools to keep saying the Birthers are helping Obama or the Dims in November when they lose both houses of Congress.”


I think the fact that Bowbama gave Georgia the Nuke Power rights, is an obvious attempt to silence the Nathan Deal and the current governor’s race.

The only ones that look silly to me are those who are fighting fellow’s to stop asking for truth and honesty from our government.

I think there is a term they try to pawn on those who only want constitutional prudence and truthful answers.

They call them “useful idiots” and they are like a plague.

However, I just wish the patricians would stop trying to defend the indefensible.

Obama’s poll numbers have been dismal for months. The numbers for Congress are even worse. It is doubtful that Obama can spend his way out of this mess. We are looking at an implosion here. When the Democrats get out of denial mode and realize that they will lose both houses in the midterms it is possible that there could be some interesting fireworks. If they decide to throw Obama under the bus they will want to make it look like it’s Republican dirty work it so that they can pretend to be victims and hope for some type of sympathy reaction. This would probably be about as successful as the sympathy ploy used by the thug after he was beaten by Epic Beard Man.

Question his faith? Faith in what? That Jesus was a black communist?

He is not a member of any church. He did not celebrate Christmas. He does not practice any religion and has no faith in anything except his own cult of personality.
