Why Obama liked the Birther movement

This is by far the most clear, and best point, I have read regarding the whole Birther scandal. Truth is he could have done this four years ago, and he didn't. He may have had a good reason, but I don't see what it could have been. Also I doubt he does anything for less than political reasons.

At least not everyone on the right is a birther...

I think everyone has had enough of these silly birthers and their crazy ideas.

clipped from hotair.com Dave Weigel has been covering the Tea Party Convention in Nashville for the Washington Independent, and earlier today walked into an unplanned but heated debate between World Net Daily’s Joseph Farah and Andrew Breitbart.  Farah claimed that the Tea Party movement was partially fueled on the notion that Barack Obama isn’t really a native-born citizen of the US.  When WND reporter Chelsea Schilling asked Breitbart- to comment on Farah’s speech, he criticized the attack and said the Tea Party movement would do better to focus on substance.  Weigel asked Farah for a response, which led Farah to start an argument:

Lindsay Graham says birthers are "crazy"

Lindsay Graham says birthers are "crazy": "From CBS News:

Asked how he deals with fringe elements in his party, Graham said, 'I go to a town hall meeting and say 'you're crazy' - in a respectful way.' He said the so-called 'birthers,' who doubt that Mr. Obama was born in the United States, fall into that catergory.

They are crazy, but not just because they believe that Obama wasn't born in the US, and shouldn't be president. They are crazy because they think they are going to get someone to believe them, and they think they can remove Obama from office. They are crazy, because at a time when so many other things need their time and focus, they are spending it on a losing battle.
