Why do otherwise intelligent people believe outlandish bullshit when election season comes around???

I mean come on, if Obama wasn't born in Hawaii don't you think Fox News would have been all over that already? Don't you think Hillary would have jumped on that? Do you honestly believe he would have gotten this far? Smarter, sneakier people have already vetted all that shit and if there were anything there it would have already blown up all over the place.

Who gives a shit about how much the RNC spent to put clothes on Palin!!!! Do we talk about how much the suits the guys wear cost??? Think they wear the same suit everyday?

What I care about is that eight years ago we had a projected surplus and now we are borrowing money from CHINA!

We're supposed to be the greatest nation on Earth! What the hell are we doing watching our middle class become the poverty class while job after job is outsourced to another country and the corporation doing it gets a big fat tax cut in reward? And why does anyone believe it's a good idea???

I think it's crap so I will not vote Republican thank you very much. Oh, and yes, I have voted for Republicans before. I vote issues not party and I diligently research before I make up my mind. I do lean a bit left of center but I'm not a left wing liberal by no means. I actually wish there weren't such a thing as big political parties. I wish more people could think for themselves instead of needing a party to tell them what to think.

I don't care if he is muslim or not. Most likely it was said he was Muslim because his Muslim step father had adopted him, not because that was his actual religion. Personally I find the church he actually attended the last 20 years way scarier than Islam. Regardless, I know people personally that went to school in Islamic countries and didn't renounce their faith, and had no problems because of it.

People get snotty and tell me to read the constitution and post cute little macros like I'm just retaining random opinions that have long been dubunked, and yeah, this campaign it's been a common theme to just beat down and call someone stupid for questioning Obama but come on?

When the judge dismissed the lawsuit he essentially said 'someone would have caught this by now if it were true' Huh?

This isn't a republican vs democrat thing. The person that brought the lawsuit forward was a democrat albeit a Hillary supporting democrat. In the future it could be a republican skirting around the laws and stomping the rules, and no doubt people will be furious and crying conspiracy.

I do hope that it is all fake and stupid. I'm not a petty person. I'd like to believe we have a system and it works. There is a lot of hiding going on in regards to Obama and releasing his school records and birth certificate (as in actually releasing, not posting on ones website or giving to a single group with which there is a large conflict of interest) that I personally don't understand, partly because McCain had no problem doing same.

I simply have a lot of questions that Obama himself would need to address and prove, not random websites like snopes and factcheck. It's great people would essentially bet their life on snopes, but having studied history at great length, honestly nothing would surprise me in regards to what sounds crazy actually being totally true. Stranger things have happened for sure.

A similar lawsuit was brought against McCain and was dismissed on the same grounds, namely that it's a bullshit lawsuit.

I happen to know that you can buy anything in a 3rd world country for a carton of cigs. Remember that my husband spent 22 years in the Navy most of that spent in the Pacific theater. A handwritten ledger from a school in Indonesia means jack shit.
