7. Birth certificate, hands down
Because even id he WAS born in Kenya and DID fake his American birth certificate (both of which are ridiculous and demonstrably untrue), his mother was an American citizen.

9. hard to say, really...
the ones listed are all pretty stupid, just in different ways


Oh, now the newest one is his "illegal immigrant" aunt who donated "illegally" to his campaign


Like people know everybody in their families and what they're all doing...

Last year (at the age of 55) I just discovered a bunch of aunts and cousins I didn't even know I had. In fact, I didn't even know who my real grandmother (my dad's mom) was until last year.

so yeah...at this point the whole brouhaha over his aunt is pretty damned stupid....


:silly:

12. My favorite faux controversy was when the freepers were freeping out that the Ohio State flag
was some kind of remade Obama American flag, signifying some secret conspiracy to overthrow the Constitution.

14. I had already been made familiar with ALL of these "non-issues" BEFORE the election.
Wonder WHERE I might have heard them.

Wonder who ELSE they might have bought traction for?
