These guys make me look sane and rational

I'm a paranoid conspiracy theorist, and I know it. I'm 100% certain the CIA, the Bavarian Illuminati, and the aliens are all out to get us - together. Well, maybe not 100% certain. The CIA might have their own rogue agenda.

But next to these birthers and teabaggers, I look downright rational. Skeptical, even. Case in point:

COLMES: Do you really believe – you know he was born in Hawaii right?

TANCREDO: I have absolutely no idea where he was born.

COLMES: You’ve seen he was born in Hawaii; he was in two Hawaiian newspapers within two days of his birth.

TANCREDO: Anybody can put an article in a newspaper. Just show me your birth certificate!

That's what they're proposing. They're claiming that within two days after his birth, there was already a scheme to take a random Kenyan kid and groom him to become the President of the USA. They just knew, right then, that it was going to one day be very beneficial to his political career to be able to claim to be a native-born citizen, but not actually be one. So, rather than fly over to Hawaii prior to your delivery date to give birth to a U.S. Citizen, instead you fly over just after giving birth, and place newspaper announcements of your son's birth.

Ridiculous bullshit!

Even I can see that, and I set my alarm clock to wake me up at random intervals throughout the night so I can catch the Aliens with my pants down.

Rolfe, I changed the post time of this so that it topped the list for the day. It is better and more culturally relevant than either of mine today. If people visit and just want to read the first post on the list, it should be yours, not mine.

If you really wanted it to be posted at 9AM, I (or you) can change it back.
