a href="http://www.castle.house.gov/"Mike Castle/a is a moderate Republican (I thought they'd all been purged from the GOP by now - you live and learn) from Delaware. Former Governor and current House Representative from Delaware.br /br /He got booed in his own state for declaring that President Obama is a US Citizen. The Washington Independent has the story:blockquotepA little evidence that [the birther] conspiracy theory is showing up in uncomfortable situations for Republicans: Here’s Rep. Mike Castle (R-Del.), a moderate Republican who hasn’t announced whether he’s running for re-election or for the U.S. Senate next year, at a town hall meeting earlier this month./p pspan id="more-51736"/span/p pA woman gets up, holding a baggie containing her birth certificate, and unleashes a rambling, minute-long tirade tirade about how the president is a “citizen of Kenya.” The crowd hoots and cheers when she’s done. Castle responds, diplomatically: “Well I don’t know what comment that invites. If you’re referring to the president, then he is a citizen of the United States.” That elicits roars and boos from the crowd, so Castle presses on. “You can boo, but he is a citizen of the United States.”/p/blockquote Take a look:br /br /centerobject width="425" height="344"param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9V1nmn2zRMcamp;color1=0xb1b1b1amp;color2=0xcfcfcfamp;feature=player_embeddedamp;fs=1"param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/9V1nmn2zRMcamp;color1=0xb1b1b1amp;color2=0xcfcfcfamp;feature=player_embeddedamp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="425" height="344"/embed/object/centerbr /Even in little Delaware, teh crazie flourishes.br /br /Then there's Pat Boone. In his Newsmax column he hits all (and I mean ALL) of the Anti-Obama wingnut points. First on the birth certificate:blockquoteI know; this suspicion, this question about whether Barack Hussein Barry Soetoro Obama was actually born in the United States — as the Constitution explicitly demands — has been circulating for months, since before he won the election last November. He, or somebody in his confidence, posted a supposed copy of a Hawaiian "Certification of Live Birth," or COLB, on his presidential campaign Web site — even though a COLB, under Hawaiian rules, does not necessarily prove in-state birth. Some found the document, which does not list the hospital of birth or attending physician, to be fake./blockquote "Some" also believe the moon landings to be a hoax. That doesn't mean there's any evidence to support it. Same here. Pat goes further:br /ulliCorsi's trip to Kenya where he was denied entry (the cover-up's gone international!!)br //liliThe videotape (which, again, "some" have reported to have seen) showing Obama's paternal step grandmother saying she saw his birth -in Kenya/liliAnd then this convoluted conspiracy:blockquote Many, who know more than I do about what actually happened, notably the United States Justice Foundation, have surmised that baby Obama’s mother, about to have her child in Kenya, had booked a flight to Hawaii but was prohibited from flying because delivery was so imminent. But soon after baby Barack was born, USJF theorizes she flew with him to Oahu and obtained some kind of "record of birth" as if he'd been born there./blockquote/li/ulOR he was simply born in Hawaii.br /br /Pat sums up the importance of this issue with:blockquoteYes, it is important, crucially and everlastingly important. America’s very future depends on the defense of, and obedience to, our basic constitutional laws./blockquote Good to know. But where was Pat and the other birthers when the previous President was lying the country into a war? Okaying illegal domestic surveillance? Ordering torture?div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8213262-8902635541117777554?l=2politicaljunkies.blogspot.com'//div
