>> It is evidence — not of the President's foreign origin, but that Barack Obama's public persona has perhaps been presented differently at different times.
Okay, so it is evidence Obama is a liar. I don't know which it is evidence of but it is one of the two.
But that's beside the point. The point was that Z claimed is that believing what Obama, himself, said, is somehow indicative that a person is "crazy". Yet, apparently, Obama believed at the time that people WOULD believe it.
I have stated time and again that I don't know.
What I DO know is that mine is a more thoughtful position, based on the available evidence, than the absurd claim that we DO know. The man personally claimed he was born in Kenya. As an attorney, he KNEW that that comment could adversely affect him somewhere down the road. Yet, he only bothered to change it when he began his run for the presidency.
Personally, I think he was born in Hawaii and lied about that for some reason for a full 15 years. But this is something there should not be any question, whatsoever, about.
It is fine to claim he was born in Hawaii. But he needs to be called on to account for the lie. And he hasn't. His claim that some literary agent made it up is nonsense and any reporter worth his or her salt knows that.
Apparently, Obama believed people would buy it.
Is a liar who tells a lie any less crazy than the people who are sucked in by it? I think not. |
