My younger brother is moving further to the right, and here is how. How can a smart, educated, voter turn so naive?

::::::::

I can't believe it, but I have no choice and must openly admit it, my younger brother is a "birther." At 60 plus years and 3 masters degrees, he believes that there is something wrong with Obama's birth certificate and he has 20 lawyers to guard and protect it - I suppose to keep the birther crowd from getting their hands on it and proving that the document isn't valid.

Now, my bro claims he's not a "birther," but his comment about the 20 lawyers gives him away. Yes, he was a right winger before Obama became president. The fact that the Democrats have taken over The White House, The Congress and The Senate has driven him farther and farther to the right, My bro is not a "truther," but birther he really is. Welcome again to a group so far right, that the group finds itself driven further right than before the Democratic party won The White House.

Give up on reasoning with them, because they have lost that ability. 20 lawyers! Give me a break. Do you know a birther?
