“Oh for heaven’s sake. This is not a birther issue, it is a frauder issue”
Tell that to the birthers. My point from the beginning was that this is not the smoking gun some are pretending it to be on NBC status. I’m with you on the frauder part. Not that he or anyone should go to jail, but on it probably being someone’s lie instead of an honest mistake.
A lie that Barack Obama would find it awfully hard to insulate himself from. What author is that ignorant of his own publicity for that long? If his “Kenyan birth” was news to him, it wouldn’t take long for the yack to get back to him: “Oh Barack! I never knew you were born in Kenya! Where in Kenya?” In which case any normal author would go “Oh hell! My publicist screwed up! Let me get on the horn to him/her right away!”
And imagine any Republican being caught in fraud of that sort. It would be the kiss of hot smoking political death.
