Bill Maher and John Stewart

"Why, in this country, is it always the religious right that won't take anything on faith?” - Bill Maher

Fear and trembling are brewing among the anti-birther brigade.  For evidence look no further than a sad and confused polemic in the LA Times against conservative truth-seekers by leftist comedian Bill Maher. 

In setting out to attack legitimate public concern over such issues as Barack Obama’s birth certificate and Senator John Kerry’s earlier claims about his Vietnam War experience, Maher only deepens the growing American suspicion about the left’s commitment to the truth. 

Even worse, Maher’s pathetic tirade against conservatives never rises above an eighth-grade schoolyard tantrum, which should raise further concerns about the effects of drinking kool-aid on a person of otherwise normal intelligence.  In short, although Maher tries to pose as a hip, erudite, and progressive mouthpiece of the left his essay raises disturbing questions about the state of the modern liberal mind.


 
For example, Maher attempts to lampoon those who simply want to see Obama’s original birth certificate:

    “And there's nothing anyone can do to convince these folks. You could hand them, in person, the original birth certificate and have a video of Obama emerging from the womb with Don Ho singing in the background ... and they still wouldn't believe it.  Which raises the question: Why, in this country, is it always the religious right that won't take anything on faith?”

Well, Bill, you’ve got an interesting theory here but for some reason you don’t want to test it.  The fact is that the original birth certificate has not been shown. Why? 

Maher, incredibly, goes on to blame the media for not being courageous enough in smothering the “lies” about John Kerry and the Vietnam War: [continue American Thinker, Anti-Birthers are Beginning to Worry]
I know when the left media get hysterical over someone, it's because that person or idea represents a political threat to the Democrat party.  One that needs killing.   It's this "birther" hysteria, more than anything, that leaves me 99% certain that doubts over Obama's citizenship are legitimate.

I embedded John Stewart's ( America's most trusted newsman,  now that the reigning king of agitprop is planted in dirt)  own eighth-grade schoolyard tantrum video, where he lashes out at Orly Taitz, who I view as something of a Renaissance woman, and CNN "birther" Lou Dobbs. Now that Taitz has produced what appears to be Obama's Kenyan birth certificate,  Maher and Stewart's next performances ought to be doozies.

Really sad that most young people get their news from Jon Stewart.

We have a Harvard Professor of Literature who doesn't know the difference between William Shakespeare and Robert Burns, and a President who doesn't know the difference between Natural Born and "Native" Born. I blame Infirmative Action.

You are partly correct, Rodge. The anti-birther Lefties are not worried. They are laughing at you people. The anti-birther Righties are beginning to worry because they do not want to see you lot hang yourselves and them by pushing this nonsense.

It's much more likely that Obama was born in the US but there's something else on his birth certificate that disagrees with his carefully constructed image. Wouldn't it be interesting if in addition to being America's first black President he was also the first one to have been born on the wrong side of the blanket?

If I was running interference for Obama, I'd create a very authentic looking hoax document that got attention at a national level, and then "discover" how it was a hoax. That tarnished halo would then attach itself to any subsequent revelations, and that would be that.

Anyway, I'm with you that details about Obama's actual birth circumstances are deal breakers for him. That's what I want every American to understand. But, as a practical matter, just as the left have used countless lies and innuendo to poison the public on Sarah Palin, this continued focus on Obama the "Kenyan wetback" has the same effect. Ooh-rah!
