The official stance of the Republican Party is that President Obama is illegitimate because he was born in Kenya or some other communist Muslim place. They have no time for issues that are pressing for our country such as budget discipline, two ongoing wars, or health care reform. They instead want to focus everyone on their conspiracy theories.
In light of such complete ignorance, Dem Rep. Neil Abercrombie of Hawaii
will introduce a measure that commemorates the 50th anniversary of Hawaii’s statehood and describes it as Obama's birthplace.
Oh what will the right wing nutjobs do?
*Update:
Well the nuttiest right wing nutjob of them all Michelle Bachmann blocks the Obama birthplace resolution from coming to the floor. That's how scared and how in control the wingers are of the GOP. What if a Democrat blocked a resolution honoring Texas and calling it the home of the greatest president ever George Bush? Couldn't imagine what the Great Patriots of the Republican Party and the media would have done then.Nope. Bachmann's motion was a procedural move to end debate and bring the measure to a roll call vote later in the evening. Once it hit the floor, it passed 378-0. All known Republican birthers voted in favor of the resolution.
