Conspiracy theories are blankets for people that simply can't handle thinking about the civilized world as the complex, unpredictable, seemingly-chaotic entity that it is. They are the circular constructs of vein individuals who cannot accept the fact that most things do not happen "for a reason", or at least not "for a reason" visible to them.

I have to agree with Wolfmason. Conspiracy theorists live with thick blankets on their heads and under that blanket is their version of the world and their own explanation for everything. They refuse to listen to any other opinions or views of the world except for themselves. Ignorance is their bliss, selfishness is their lust, and stupidity is their blood. The man who has never won an election Keyes has proven time and again how off the wall he is. Clearly, this man is dying for attention and will hop on any screw loose issue in order to get that attention. He did the same thing with the anti-abortion rallies when Obama was at Norde Dame. Just another man taking up an idiotic cause no matter how much of an idiot they look in the public eye because he's a spotlight hog. I honestly don't see how anyone can take Keyes for their cause. The man is an idiot and damaged goods whose cause will result in nothing. As for the military deserters, they are not patriotic. A true patriot would look into the best interest of the country. They are not doing that. They are deserters.

No wonder I am a huge Daily Show and Jon Stewart fan. He just shows how crazy the birther wingnuts are and punches them down within a span of less than 5 minutes. Here's hoping the birther movement dies soon. There are so much other problems to take care of besides these hopeless and doomed losers.

Dude, you are creeping me out. Your letters ring like a horror movie with sweet child's voice while someone is getting stabbed the crap out of. "She is nice...Aren't they nice people...wouldn't you like to see them in the white house someday?" Oh good lord, no! I read your letters and you are not helping me see anything good about Sarah Palin. And no, I will not have a beer with her. I would probably fall asleep on her and find a younger woman to chat with. Besides I'd much rather be in the place with Obama, Professor Gates, and Officer Crowley (remember that whole incident last week?) had their beers. Now that discussion I would love to see.

Sorry, but I'd never bought or worn Crocs in my life. They are just ugly and I could find shoes that are fashionable and just as functionable than those fugly shoes. I won't miss them and thank God, they will be extinct.

You're either with them or against them.

Sorry, I'm not watching Octo-freak and her off-spring. It's going to be like watching an entire family go into a slow trainwreck. I have better things to do than watch that like go to my job and work and clean my apartment. I'll let the bloggers watch it for me and I'll read it several days from then when I'm bored.

the Birther Movement is critical

americans deserve to know the truth.

I have heard this from many asshat birthers and honestly, I have yet to see any kind of legitimate, logical, and without a shadow of a doubt evidence that anything being put up as evidence to show Obama is a U.S. Citizen is a fake. I have seen the certificate, plus the birth announcements, etc, etc, time and time again. Wow, I must really be dumb to deny all of the evidence before me. Unlike the "super intelligent" birthers. John McCain was born in Panama and I don't see them going after him since he's in a top government position. Oh that's right, he lost the election. Pity for them. I agree with an earlier poster that this whole thing probably wouldn't be such an issue with right wing nutjobs if Obama's middle name wasn't Hussein. These people have their own warped sense of reality (denial) and they still won't be satisfied despite of mountain of evidence proving them wrong (insane and more denial). This ordeal is not critical, it's an annoyance and distraction from legitimate issues like healthcare, education, DADT, and the two goddamn wars we are fighting that look to have no end. This ordeal is nothing more than a scapegoat for Republicans and right wing nuthacks to blame for their problems and are in denial that a black, democratic president is in the office. I didn't think racism would play into this, but the more I read about birthers, the more I think they are racists in their own way. There is nothing patriotic about these people. It's not patriotic to make a huge issue about of something that have no credible evidence to justify it while there are bigger problems in this country that desperately need attention to. Healthcare is a big one at that. I don't think people are concerned about the birth certificate of the president when they need urgent medical care. But then again, I don't think birthers are concerned at the very least about the suffering of the people. They don't have solutions to that problem after all.

(By the way Mary, use decent grammar at least, all of your letter are making me illiterate.)
