By the way... it appears that Zullo's BS story about the "Government Official" meeting Obama at Bill Ayer's parent's was a 30 year later recollection of a mailman.

Barack Obama

Stunning.

1) They claim O’s BC is a fake because THEY made a fake, and it didn’t match? WTF?

2) Expert opinions on graphics with no one named as the “expert.”

3) An unnamed “person of interest in the fraud.”

4) A claim about missing INS records without a shred of proof.

5) Backed up by anonymous affidavits.

Oh, well then… Case closed, obviously.

Okay... I've been loathe to mention this, but I must.

Denver is not a big town. We pretend we are because we're the State Capitol and all... but really, we're not. We are smaller than Nashville, or El Paso, or Charlotte, North Carolina. As a result, our local news media is very fastidious about covering injury accidents, especially when caused by a drunk driver. Here's an example of the kind of story that gets in our local papers regularly:

3 injured in three-car crash in Aurora

February 11, 2012 4:10 AM GMT
The Denver Post

A three-car accident in Aurora after a 17-year-old driver ran a stop sign had three people rushed to the hospital tonight.

Lt. Charles DeShazer, a spokesman for the Aurora Police, said a 17-year-old boy was driving a pickup truck east on 11th Avenue and ran a stop sign, hitting a minivan that was southbound on Airport Boulevard. When the minivan was hit, it spun into the northbound lanes of the road and was hit again by another pickup truck on Airport Boulevard.

The 17-year-old driver, a child in the minivan and the driver of the second pickup were all transported to the hospital.

DeShazer said the child had facial lacerations but he did not know the condition of the child. The driver of the second pickup truck had minor injuries when he was transported. The condition of the juvenile driver was also unknown.

Police are investigating the possibility that alcohol was involved.

Deshazer said the driver will be ticketed, but said charges are pending the investigation.

Now... here's the problem. Steve McGarrett posts to The Fogbow from an IP address registered to New Castle, Pennsylvania... not anywhere near Denver. And several people have been searching all day for any record of an injury car crash in Aurora, CO on Monday.

Nothing.

Steve said this morning that the driver is still being held until his blood alcohol returns to normal. That was 66 hours after Steve first announced that he had gotten a call about his daughter's accident. But even the worst drunk takes less than 35 hours for blood alcohol to return to normal.

I would love nothing more than to be wrong, because I genuinely think its horrific and unconscionable that somebody would make up a story about his daughter being involved in a horrible accident and becoming an amputee. But frankly... I think we're being played.

OK, when nothing happened by 1 PM MST, I did something more practical; I went to Target. Now I'm back and reading this. It's hilarious! My comments:

So, which is it? Beleaguered minority, ignored silent majority or breakthrough to national significance? That is of course excluding my personal guess: The media has shown up to point and laugh.
It's whatever makes the birthers look more like victims. Whatever accusation fits.

It would probably be cheaper just to change your name.

It doesn't matter where Obama was born. He was and still is woefully unqualified to run anything more complicated than a microwave.

The voters will right this wrong in Nov.
