It’s true. Just when I get disgusted with him or write him off as having jumped the shark, he has a barn-burner show of the kind that only he can do with the insights only he can provide.
It’s a mystery to me why he hasn’t spent any time on the Bundy affair. By this time I think it’s deliberate, not just an oversight. But here’s a reason that he (or other hosts)might not be entertaining birther theories: they’re bullshit. Aren’t there enough real problems with Obama and his administration to be pursuing this foolishness? Put it in the same dustbin with 911 trutherism, moon landing hoax stories and half-baked stories about the Kennedy assassination and move on. Believing crap doesn’t make a person a “true” conservative. Other conservatives don’t avoid this stuff because they’re “scared”. They avoid it because its stupid.
I would take your opinion of “birthers” seriously if I had not seen the hard evidence that the “birth certificate” is crude forgery.
I won’t deny what I’ve seen with my own eyes just because “there are other issues.”
There's been a cat-and-mouse game going on with Obama since he appeared in public life. Obama's been baiting Limbaugh and other commenters to speak out on this or that story that Obama's team (Carville, other Clinton buggerhump-politics specialists) have booby-trapped with false information and/or special defenses constructed on information they know has been destroyed, so they can do essentially the same thing the Reds did to Joseph McCarthy in the 50's: they led him into an area where he could not substantiate his charges without compromising a vital national "means" (the Venona File and the NSA's decryption abilities).
McCarthy, forced to choose, tried to expose the KGB assets working in the Truman Administration without the Venona material ..... without releasing the decrypts, which absolutely prove his case now that they're public. It didn't work, Joseph Walsh called his bluff in public at the "Army-McCarthy Hearings", and McCarthy's credibility with the public was destroyed -- which was the whole object of baiting him. Eisenhower refused to back McCarthy or throw him a lifeline, but instead, in finest E-GOP fashion (Ike did that a lot), abandoned his hard-pressed soldier and left him to drift away into public contempt, despair, alcoholism, madness, and death, and a huge dark victory for the People of the Lie.
Talk about making some guy "take one for the team" .....
That's what the E-RiNOate and Obama have waiting for Limbaugh, Levin, Savage, O'Reilly, and all the non-E-GOP commentariat.
IMNSHO.
