thanks for the vote of confidence.

sorry arjay, my views on birtherism come from my own research on the subject. nobody has told me to "represent one side". if there's something i've stated that is false please point out exactly what that is with evidence to support your claim.

Personally, I believe that the birther claim is wrong for a number of reasons, not the least of which is the vetting that Obama had to go thru to get elected and a security clearance. Yet it is possible.

You, on the other hand, seem to continually repeat claims that others on this forum have made and provide no evidence as to why. That, and disregarding all statements to the contrary.

So you must be getting your information from someone, who is in essence telling you what to think.

That answer your questions, or do you have to wait for someone to hand you more excuses/claims to make yourself feel correct?

I love how right wingers are quick to throw around the "paid shill" and "someone telling you what to think and say" on forums like this. Why can't you accept that people are very capable of reading and researching and forming their own opinions without some covert group in the background pulling strings like a giant ventriloquist? Who puts words in your mouth? Aren't you capable of reading and researching and forming your own opinions? If you answer yes, then it shouldn't be a stretch for you to believe others who don't agree with you can do the same.

only statements that are incorrect.

i'm happy to admit to the facts that support different aspects of the birthers beliefs ( obama'a literary agency did write a bio on him that stated he was "born in kenya", some of the first birthers were clinton supporters, stanley ann dunham was not old enough to automatically convey citizenship to a birth outside the US at the time of obama's birth.... )

Because you left wingers seldom provide any indication of an ability to think for yourself, without guidance from your supreme council. It is amazing how all of your statements match up, word for word, yet you claim to be independent thinkers. Proof that you are not.

As for the rest of your statement, utter balderdash. You attack no one other than me when similar statements are made, eloquent proof of my individual thoughts. If someone who disagrees with me makes a new and provably factual statement, I will examine it. So far no one, including you, has done so.

Judging from your own dictated perspective. Anything different from your own beliefs is wrong, according to you. No evidence necessary .

Only facts that you dismiss out of hand without investigation or attempt to push off on someone else to try and diminish your godchild.

Typical of one who refuses to even consider a different position than his own. Don't read it. Assume that you just have to be correct and everyone else is wrong.

As for your claims that you haven't supported, re-read your posts in this thread. Plenty of evidence.

people answering with facts will tend to give the same answer. if you ask a group of people what 2 + 2 is, those answering 4 are not lacking "an ability to think for [themselves] without guidance from [their] supreme council".
