On "the Birthers" and Lou Dobbs

See: Dobbs Joins ‘Birthers,’ But CNN Pushes Back

I'm curious: would this controversy have any legs where his name "President Barry O'Bama" and his father were from Ireland?

Barack means "blessing" in Arabic, in Aramaic it is spelled Baruch and occurs 24 times in the Bible (for all you Christian right-wingers)!

5/27/2009 Briefing by White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs

The White House Press Secretary, Mr. Gibbs states:

"MR. GIBBS: Lester, this question in many ways continues to astound me. The state of Hawaii provided a copy with the seal of the President's birth. I know there are apparently at least 400,000 people -- (laughter) -- that continue to doubt the existence of and the certification by the state of Hawaii of the President's birth there, but it's on the Internet because we put it on the Internet for each of those 400,000 to download. I certainly hope by the fourth year of our administration that we'll have dealt with this burgeoning birth controversy."

Snopes.com debunks it: Obama Birth Certificate

Here's a link with the seal of the 50th state of Hawaii:

Racism. A narcissism of self-centered, paranoia resulting from the notion that right or wrong, all things are "good" when someone like "me" is in charge.
