I think a more interesting thread would be one investigating the psychology of anti-birthers.
Normal psychology doesn't prove very interesting.

Constitutional abortionists.
Some people believe that abortion is wrong, and also believe that it is wrong for the government to be involved in such matters.
I used to call them "conservatives", but that term has been hijacked by the loonies of the authoritarian Right, who will claim to be defending the Constitution while they roll back civil rights and every other societal advance we've made over the past couple of centuries.
You manufacture the threat to justify your agenda. Classic.
I don't disagree, but I still think that for at least some of them, this birther business is a proxy for something else.
Yes, it's a proxy for warning about what ergohead described, the descent into fascism. Erode the Constitution, and that's what you get.

So then it is a proxy for generalized Neo-McCarthyist right wing loony paranoia?
Thanks, I knew that already.
Spare me. You can wrap yourself in the flag and the Constitution all you like, you are no protector of our national ideals. You just hate Obama.
That's your only motivation here, not some high-falootin constitutional ideal that you have done a fine job proving that you do not even understand, even if you could be objective, which you obviously cannot.

You won't mention it, you're way too slick for that and you know it wouldn't fly on THIS board.
But we both know the truth about you and your real motivations.
