I think it is quite the reverse. If you want to talk about being marginalized let’s look at the folks pushing this issue.

I disagree...it would seem that the folks pushing this are a small enough minority to preclude them being able to marginalize any contrary view point even if they wished to.

My observation is that folks dissenting on this are called trolls, Obama lovers, unpatriotic, sheep and worse. Some folks in fact ARE posting 30 articles a day that add nothing to the story.

I haven't personally seen the insults you've indicated but I will take your word for it that they have been utilized...and I agree, 30 posts per day on this story is silly overkill. I would suspect that those individuals see this as a story that needs higher visiblity and are doing their best to give it that by flooding with redundant articles.

I don’t think anyone is saying that, if true, it isn’t significant. However, the emphasis on it is wildly disproportionate to other issues.

Well, if it's true then it couldn't possibly be disproportionate. Prior to the election I'd commented on one thread making the claims Obama wasn't a citizen by pointing out that stressing his easily chronicled hideously poor judgment would be a better avenue to address him as a candidate.

Folks want to “argue” the issue which is an asinine exercise of intellectual self pleasure. The Supremes have it. When, in my view, they drop it, it will be time for everyone to roll up their sleeves and WORK. That means getting off the damn computer a few hours a week.

I agree with you on these points...it's in the hands of the supreme court...if they blow it off then there isn't likely to ever by any progress made on this issue and it'll be time to move along with life.

LGF has gotten many things right, but they are totally wrong in blowing off the birth certificate problem. LGF is a totally hypocritical blog that has no problem advancing its own conspiracy theories. How did LGF wind up on the wrong side of the fence when it comes to the birth certificate controversy?

MEMO to LGF: This issue will never go away until Obama coughs up his real, original, long-form birth certificate.

Secondly, LGF seems to be brain-dead silent about the $800 million spent by Obama to fight the release of a $12.50 certificate. That alone should have merited some web space.

Lastly, and most importantly, LGF is as clueless about the COLB forgery as are the Obamabots, and even uses their language to boot, calling us "Truthers," and the very real birth certificate issue, "Nirth Certifikit Kookery," which apparently a majority of Americans feel is a legitimate issue.

While LGF daily cracks on the KOS, they are silent about the forgery that appeared there.
