You can comb through moldy books on 18th century maritime law and the personal correspondence of the author of the 14th amendment but don’t bother reading the flaps of his memoir?

Ah, but that's just it! It wasn't on the flaps of his memoir, was it.

It was from...@a promotional booklet produced in 1991 by Barack Obama's then-literary agency, Acton & Dystel...

Nice try, but that dog don't hunt. It's been eaten, tail and all.

“Ah, but that’s just it! It wasn’t on the flaps of his memoir, was it.”

Oh, boy. That was a joke, in case you didn’t notice by my reference to “moldy books” and such. The point was this is presumably more readily available than the centuries-plus old material birthers link to on a daily basis.

“Nice try, but that dog don’t hunt. It’s been eaten, tail and all.”

The way you say that, it seems you think my asking why birthers missed this was intended somehow to malign it as evidence. But that was a legitimate question, without ulterior motive. I swear. Seriously, given how obsessively and tirelessly birthers hunt their quarry, how did this take so long to emerge?
