[Question Liberal Authority]

Conservatives are being set up to look like fools with our association with the lunatic fringe.

Only if you allow the press to decide who is a "fool" and who is the "lunatic fringe".

I agree that, politically, the conservatives have bigger fish to fry. However, I don't see anything wrong with simply acknowledging the fact that there are gaps in Obama's historical record, and that he being extremely unhelpful in filling those gaps.

I disagree with Farah that the Tea Party movement is all about the birth certificate. I agree with Breitbart that his resources are limited and he needs to choose his battles wisely. But I disagree with anyone who says this is "settled science" and that there is no question about Obama's parentage.

You hit the heart of the issue square on the head. I'd love to see groups move away from the birth certificate and demand the same level of transparency required of other Presidents. The American public doesn't even know what his grades were at Harvard - can you imagine if Bush had refused to release his grades at Yale?
