      Standard operating procedure for Conspiracy nuts:
      When they produce the information/facts you asked for, move the goalposts.
      I've dealt with Moon Hoaxers, 9/11 'truth'ers, etc. so I've seen it all before. Many times.

        Additional SOP for afterBirthers/wingnuts:

        When you are debunked by the national media, decry it as yet another example of the "liberal Obama-loving media sticking up for him" . . .

          Which will be quite easy for them to do as they watch Fox's "so you think you can dance" instead of the president's speech. Who needs to hear what Obama says when you can rely on a slew of fox racists to tell you what they think he said so you can decide?

            absolutely, when facts are presented to any of them they dismiss it because it just doesn't jive with their beliefs and therein lies the problem....belief vs. facts.

      Sadly... there will always be a fringe group of dumb-ass Americans that will never accept the truth even if it fell out of the sky and landed on their empty heads!

      Unfortunately, as long as pure racists like Lou Dobbs, Rush Limbaugh, Savage, Coulter, most of Fox-Noise keep bringing this idiocy up it will feed into this stupidity!

      OK, not about the birth. Does everyone here agree with Obama's spending?? Do you REALLY think that his financial plans are working? Do you feel better off or think you are going to be? DO you REALLY want to pay for SOMEONE else's healthcare? Are you serious?

      This is great progress. The right wing has always put out insane lies but this is the first time I can remember that the media pointed the insanity out for what it is.

      I hope that the birthers are wearing their tinfoil hats when they leave the house to protect them from harmful gamma rays.

        How many stupids can be within the borders of one country?

        A significant portion of the American people and sweet, lovely, honest, and very stupid people.
