Birtherism

Here's a great column in the American Thinker on the birtherism phenomenon.  This topic comes up from time to time and it is useful to caution conservatives not to get caught up in this stuff.   The article shows that this is just another way to smear conservatives as racists.  In fact, it was the Democrats themselves who brought up this issue in 2008.  The media was quiet as a church mouse when it was raging in the Democrat primaries.  Now all of a sudden, they are interested.  There is only one reason for that. 

For me, Obama is an American citizen, and that makes him eligible for the Presidency.  End of story.  There are plenty of other topics of interest about this guy, but not that one.  Let this one drop.
