Actually I agree with you - BUT - the night he died he had been on the phone with Corsi and Arpaio; very likely he was going to go with the “birthers”.
It would have been nice to know if he finally had got the true revalation, because IIRC he was snubbing Joseph Farrah at a TP gathering on the issue, probably so that he still could get on coward Hannity’s show. But may AB R.I.P., I do believe he was eliminated!!!
