"I lurked for over a year without ever signing up. I think the tone has changed in that brief time. I can only imagine what it's like for the long-timers."

The tone has changed several times in the time I've been here (and lurked before that). It'll change again. But there will always be cranks and kooks posting conspiracy theories, here and elsewhere.

In this case, the sad thing is that the b.c. issue has at its root some very legitimate questions, but it has been subsumed by nuts, with their queen being this inept and shrill Taitz creature and with Phil Berg as prince consort.

We learned nothing from the Vince Foster affair. Again: legitimate questions at its root, but the topic got marginalized pretty quickly. And there was never the sort of kookery around Foster that surrounds the b.c. affair. Nor was there kookery surrounding ChinaGate, but that incredible treason fizzled out because we allowed the likes of Larry Klayman to represent us and, worse, define us.

The analogies to the 9/11 Truthers and 2000's barking-moonbat hanging-chad folks who claimed Bush stole the election are all too apt. We damage our cause by allowing the likes of Taitz to define us. Folks like Coulter and Limbaugh and Malkin have declared the topic to be radioactive, contaminating all who touch it. They're right.

You compare apples and oranges...there is a reason that enormous amounts of money has been spent by zero and his minions to keep his records from being released. If you can’t connect those dots you need to get a new dot connector!
