Liberal hypocrisy exposed yet again. CNN has become the birther news network

Because there was no need for him to do anything any differently.

The people with the most to lose, Hillary Clinton, John McCain and Mitt Romney, two of them being known for their absolutely brutal, ruthless campaign tactics, looked thoroughly into the matter and did nothing about it. Even when they had 1 foot in the grave in their respective campaigns and would have done ANYTHING to sink Obama, they never bothered with the birther claims.

Why do you suppose that was? Because there was nothing to it. The only people who thought there was something to it were the conspiracy theorists on the right who were either desperate to get Obama out or were extremely racist and hated Obama. There was no mainstream furor over this WHATSOEVER until attention wore Donald Trump went around flapping his gums about it to get attention for the next season of his show.

Obama thoroughly discredited him when he released the birth certificate right around the same time as Trump's BIG announcement on the matter. Trump looked like an idiot, birthers looked like idiots and the only thing that was accomplished by all the constant ranting of the a few right wing nuts was it made the entire party look stupid.

 

So why did he finally release the birth certificates after so long? He was not compelled to, was he?

Politics is always ugly. I was more offended by the "ageist" slant of the Hope and Change campaign than the "birther" stuff.

 

Because when Trump made it mainstream news it became a great opportunity to embarrass Republicans by releasing it. It worked.

LOL. Ridiculous.

 

Sure you were.....

 

The Birther nonsense only hurt the Republicans and going after Cruz would do the same thing. There is PLENTY of other things to attack Cruz on, and to be honest, he is probably the least likeable politican in years..... he just reeks of *******.

Uh......what? He did not renounce this years ago?

 

Tell that to Fox News.
Oh wait, this never became an issue until CNN and NBC started doing things that differed from your narrow-minded point of view.
Another failed attempt to place yourself on a moral pedestal.

 

I am pretty certain that Gandhi would ignore BigTexxx and skip right to winning. Which I think everyone should do.
