Quote from AK Forty Seven:
Koppelman underestimated how loony and resilient birthers are.When most people make a statement or claim that is proven to be false they stop making those claims,not the birthers.
Look deeper.
Birthers have literally founded a new religion to cope with the changes in the world around them. Obama is not real, he cannot be, for a host of reasons. He has to be made up. Else, all assumptions they used to build their world view would be destroyed. The equivalent of Vulcans knocking on your door.
If they got into a time machine and went back to watch Obama come out, they would say he is a clone. The America they know is changing and change is always hard. Spend a few hours and listen to Glenn Beck. When I was younger and did not know the inherent harm Schadenfreude does to the bearer, I would be laughing at these poor misguided people.
Some are actually getting ready for another civil war.
We should meditate on them finding a way to find peace.
