Sort of like the myth that the Tea Partiers come from all walks of life and are against all "unnecessary" government spending (yet only appeared after Obama got elected...and have no problem if their state takes in more federal dollars than it pays out, etc).

Also, I suspect there will NEVER be enough evidence to prove Obama was born in the U.S.A. for these people.
Well one thing *I* wonder is if you still wouldn't have a problem with Obamas true orgin if he had an (R) after his name, or whether you'd still hate the Tea Partiers if they were Democrats. Given your repeated posts like this I have to say the expected response would be yes to the former and no to the latter.
