Inhofe Says "Birthers" Have a Point - "I don't discourage it..."
Inhofe Says "Birthers" Have a Point

Buried in a Politico piece about the challenges by right wing activists over President Obama's citizenship is an amazing line from Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-OK), who is said to be seeking "the elusive middle ground" on the issue.

Said Inhofe: "They have a point. I don't discourage it... But I'm going to pursue defeating on things that I think are very destructive to America."
