Okay, I have just figured out what we are dealing with here. Arus, Wreckingball, and the like are following the Alinsky playbook of Rules for Radicals. They are loyal soldiers of their cause, and fierce opponents. They infect threads like this, to deflect discussion and pursuit of truth. All they have is rhetoric and propoganda. Obama, McCain, Hillary are useful idiots to the cause. Do not let them dissuade you from exposing the truth. No wonder they hate Corsi, buy his book and decide for yourself. Research Alinsky Marxist philosophy, because that is the path we are on. Forums are communities too.

Rules for Radicals provides the organizer with a tactical style for community organization that assumes an adversarial relationship between groups of people in which one either dominates or is dominated.
"The first rule of power tactics is: power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have."
"Wherever possible go outside the experience of the enemy. Here you want to cause confusion, fear, and retreat."
"Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules. You can kill them with this. They can no more obey their own rules than the Christian church can live up to Christianity."
Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. It is almost impossible to counterattack ridicule. Also, it infuriates the opposition, who then react to your advantage."
"The threat is generally more terrifying than the thing itself."
"In a fight almost anything goes. It almost reaches the point where you stop to apologize if a chance blow lands above the belt."
"Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it."
If this post disappears, that will speak volumes.

i couldn't care less about this topic as far as it concerns political partisanship. democrat, republican, conservative, liberal...... doesn't matter to me. i'm just fascinated by the conspiracy theory mind-set in this case and the depths of confirmation bias that people will go thru to believe that they are correct.

Actually, it is settled.

There is absolutely no question where President Obama was born, and nobody who is not a racist even pretends that there is anymore.

The "progs" already know it is settled. It's the conspiracy theorists, mostly conservative on this topic, who keep bringing it up and requiring rational people to repeat the facts.
