You know, it is really a good thing Kurt has restricted the political forum to "members only". On this thread the idiocy and stupidity expressed by many on such a topic when it is so obvious we have really great problems facing us in this nation is really frightening and scary.
Barack Obama is our elected President. He will be so for at least two more years. I have to live with it and so does everybody else but that doesn't mean I'm racist because I might have questioned where he was born. I didn't but some of the idiocy expressed by some makes me almost wish I had. What a falicious position when it took so long for him to satisfy a segment of the American public, whether you agree with their doubts or not.
Also, may I suggest that some look at 30ashopper's grades on the President's performance on another thread before accusing him of being a "birther". He is far more generous than I would be because overall, I think he has done a poor job. We are all entitled to our opinions and, as I said, it is probably just as well they are not spread any further than they are because some are not only without merit, they are also without civility, thought or reasonable evaluation.
