What motivates the birther? Why the tenacity? does it have anything at all to do with the Consitution, or is there an ulterior motive here?

I put that question to you, CD posters. What do you think motivates the birther?
Birther's are people who believe in B. Obama birth certificate, birth place, and citizenship conspiracy theories.

Fox news listeners (literally/actually) believe that Obama is going to turn America into communists.
So they will attack Obama in anyway they can.


Barack Obama citizenship conspiracy theories - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fox news listeners don't just believe 10 separate Obama birth conspiracy theories. They believe Obama is a secret Muslim, Obama refuses to pray, Obama hates white people, Obama is a socialist, Obama is a communist, Obama wants to set up death panels, Obama wants to take away their grandmothers doctor, Obama wants to outlaw all guns, Obama misses important meetings, Obama hates America, Obama only cares about television fame, Obama disrespects US troops, ex.ex.ex.ex.


All of these anti-Obama/democrat ideas are created inside of corporate think tanks. Many large corporations hate democrats because they raise large corporations tax rates. So corporate think tanks create bad ideas about democrats so democrats don't get elected and raise their tax rates.

These corporate think tanks control what Fox news and Rush radio tell their listeners. Thats why Fox news and Rush radio say all these negative things about Obama.



These corporate think tanks also create negative ideas about democrat laws that will decrease their profits.

Example, ExxonMobile and GE hate global warming laws, so their think tanks get Fox news to say global warming is not happening, volcanoes put out more carbon than people, climate change is natural, global warming laws will destroy the American economy, ex.ex.ex.

Large insurance companies hate Obamacare. So their think tanks get Fox news to say Obamacare will take away your mothers doctor, Obamacare sets up death panels, Obamacare will destroy the America economy, ex.ex.ex.


And I only listed a small amount of the things that corporate think tanks get Fox news and Rush Radio to say.

The following Australian documentary explains what I said above.




The Billionaires' Tea Party (Full Length Documentary) - YouTube

Same thing that motivates truthers, to expose fraud. But the ignorant masses see no evil, hear no evil, even when it's standing over them with a machette. Obombya knows how easy it is to lead the lemmings to their own grave.
Truth is 9/11 was an inside job, and Obombya is a hologram, he is an image, what you see is not real, but the damage he is doing will last forever.

Mostly racism; the others are rationalizations for that.

Anyone using "retarded" in that way is completely lacking in credibility.

When things don't add up, there will always be doubt.

We will never know, until the dude is dead.

Patriotism - possibly misplaced.
