elfsDamn, damn, damn! I turned on the radio and flipped throguh the dial, only to discover that I was listening to the last five minutes of conservative talk show host Bill Cunnigham's "A Great American" show, in which Cunnigham was taking Birthers, the birth certificate conspiracy theorists, seriously.
I hate missing out on the funny stuff like that.
Bill wasn't saying where he fell, one way or another. But he did say this, shouting a'la Mark Levin: "He grew up in Jakarta, Indonesia. He went to school there under the name 'Barry Soetoro.' Most Americans don't know this. The mainstream media didn't tell you this. They picked their candidate and sold him to you. Most Americans don't know anything about him growing up in Indonesia!"
Barak Obama's book Audacity of Hope, in which he discusses his childhood (including his life in Indonesia) was on the bestseller list for 30 weeks, the audiobook took home a Grammy. FOX and CNN covered this ground a gazillion times. Yes, Bill, actually we all know about "Barry Soetoro." He's an American, a citizen, and our President.
