They knew that no child born outside the US territories could be The Chosen One. So they secretly sent envoys to Hawaii to plant a fake birth certificate in government files. And then, (and this was real genius) to cover all their bases, they planted two birth announcement ads in local papers, all 47-years ago.

Talk about foresight! If Joseph and Mary had had this level of foresight, stealth and secret agents, their kid would have grown up to rule the entire Roman Empire, instead of getting nailed.

Now, one might figure that a story like this was so, well, "out there," no one in public office would touch it with a ten-foot vaccinated crowbar. But alas, not so. GOP members of congress, fearful that all the nut-jobs they've attracted to their mad hatter tea parties, will become suspicious of their representative's nut-jobish bona fides. So, when asked about their birther supporters they say things like;

"Well, there are questions that should be answered."

Yeah. I have one. "How the hell do low-rent intellects like you get elected to public office?"

Oh hell, that's enough of all that. There's more, but it all makes my head hurt to even write about it. I don't know if the rise of factless GOP-cultivated fear mongering on some of our times most dangerous and critical issues is a reflection of our poor educational system, or Darwinism has been thrown in reverse or, hell,, who knows, maybe conservatives were right about the dangers of fluoridation of drinking water. Maybe we'll all end up dumb-asses with good teeth.

But there sure seems to be an over-abundance of ignoramuses around these days, and no shortage of handlers eager to parade them around in public like circus ring-masters.
