      Teabagger Terrorist Central (i.e., WND) even proclaimed that President Obama was born in Hawaii: http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=73214


      And, more facts and reality (two concept reich-wingers are incapable of handling): http://www.factcheck.org/elections-2008/born_in_the_usa.html

        But did you see where WND is trying to cause another conspiracy about Obama's birth certificate by saying that his Kenyan birth certificate was taken off Ebay?

        They still think he wasn't born in America.

        Rush just lost some credibility here, that's all. No harm to Obama.

      Well they say Rush was born in Missouri, supposedly, but I don't know, maybe it was the third ring of hell. I don't know...I just...don't...know.

        Well, then - in that case you're free to speculate. Just come up with any damn thing, then demand proof that you're wrong. It's the American way.

        LEFTY, I believe that RUSH was hatched instead of born. I doubt he really is human.

      Again with "where was he born?" No corraboration? The State of Hawaii isn't good enough for him? Where was Rush born? I haven't seen his birth certificate. What does he need to satisfy his curiousity, a trip back to the moment? His own personal copy? I'd like to see a copy of his prescriptions!

        Maybe just Viagra...but then he would have had a brain rush, so maybe not.

          I don't think the minuscule amount of blood that would divert would have any effect on his already-weakened mental faculties.

            Yes, you're right, but I was trying to give him the benefit of the doubt. On second thought, it probably is missing in action.

        I bet that on any random day a drug test would prove he is still on drugs. I wish his compound would get raided. They might even find servants "forced to bend over & taken it.......

      Rush and his Neocon friends are out of bullets... they are now throwing the empty pistol...

      I think he can't even believe he's bringing this up again.

      Why don't you just come out and say it.

        They never had a pistol in the first place. They are shooting spitwads.

        But this is where the line begins to blur. Is Rush simply out of ideas, is he lying, or has he crossed over to that place where he doesn't know he's lying anymore?

        Many years ago I had a neighbor, actually he was renting a room in my next-door neighbor's house. I'll call him "Bill".

        There was little shake-up, a change in management at his work. The new boss was a woman (which seemed to bug him), and she was seriously looking into the duties of different employees. Bill's duties up til then seemed to include a lot of wandering around between pot-smoking breaks, and he was going to be cut down to part-time.

        "Bill" immediately hurt his back on the job, and went on disability. He confided in me that it was a fake injury, and he was doing it to get back at that b*tch, the new boss.

        Several months later, he called me over to his place as I got home from work. As he rummaged through his shoebox full of prescription meds, in between bong hits, he gave me a detailed account of how his injury was progressing, using all of the terminology his quack doctor fed him about discs and compressed vertebrae.

        He had been lying about this "injury" for so long that, combined with the effects of the drugs, he actually believed that he was disabled. "Bill" was so deep into his scam that he was able to talk to me, somebody who he had told it was a fake, about his injury as if it were real.

        Coincidentally, "Bill" was one of the first people that I knew of who was a regular listener to Rush's radio show, and he recommended Rush's first book to me.

        I think these are the type of people who can wait on hold in the middle of the workday to talk to Rush, and they're the people who think Rush makes sense.

      Actually, Barack Obama was born in your mind...the caricature of Barack Obama you've created in the minds of your gullible listening audience, that is.

        Ooh, Shazam. Actually, it's true. The Obama they know isn't the Obama we know. They've constructed something totally different in their minds.

          I wouldn't vote for the Barack Obama they describe. But with right wingers there is always a disconnect with reality.

            I just do not get it. Their relentless lying and stupidity seems so obvious to me and I'm not the sharpest tack in the box.

      Maybe Rush can hang with Pat Boone, who has come out of the closet and has admitted that he is a birther.

      You know, I've only seen my own birth certificate once, but I never fully inspected it. You know, maybe I was never born in the U.S.!
