What I find fascinating about the Birthers, is what is it they gain from this? Where does their satisfaction come from? You know, if somebody doesn’t pay their taxes, and then claims the Income Tax Amendment was not properly ratified, they may think they can skate on their taxes, or they may just be sociopaths who love screwing up other people, and then laughing when those poor dopes get clobbered by the law. A schizophrenic person who talks to telephone poles actually hears the voices when he’s off his meds.
Maybe with Birthers, it is closer to a weird sexual thrill, like trannies get. You know, some guy delusionally believes he is a chick, so he puts on a wig and some makeup and a dress and prisses around like a woman. Is that what thrills birthers? It makes them feel like a better catch for the chicks? Pretending to be lawyers? Is that why they go around spewing legal cases like they have a clue when they are bonkers, and the facade is thin. Is it just oppositional attention-seeking behavior. I suspect that it is different in different Birthers, and whatever mental defect motivates Diogenes is different from the one that motivates Kerchner, or that poor dead lawyer Puzo, or whatever his name was.
There is something that pushes them over the edge sanity wise. Plenty of people think income taxes are wrong, but they pay their taxes, because they know that is the law. But the ones who maintain that the law does not require income taxes, are a different breed altogether - they are mentally ill.
From realizing they are not willing to be swayed by the opinions of other people simply because those opinions are in the majority. From realizing they can think for themselves and do their own research and do not have to merely accept the opinions of "authorities", especially when such authorities *DO NOT KNOW* what the F*** they are talking about.
and then laughing when those poor dopes get clobbered by the law.
Here is a poor dope who got clobbered by "the law."
Now was *HE* right, or was "the law" right?
The rest of your rant is not worthy of further consideration.
