The old Kenyan Prince Birth Announcement Scam
It’s been reported that CNN boss, Jon Klein, has told the odious Lou Dobbs to put up or shut up. Dobbs has has been pandering to right-wing birther wackaloons for months now, feeding the ridiculous urban myth/conspiracy theory that Barack Obama is not eligible to be president because he wasn’t born in the US. From Klein’s memo:
“Since the show’s mission is for Lou to be the explainer and enlightener, he should be sure to cite this during your segment tonite. And then it seems this story is dead – because anyone who still is not convinced doesn’t really have a legitimate beef.”
Not that this would have the desired effect on these morons: you could show them original film footage of the birth, with doctor, hospital chief, mayor, governor and chief justice in the room all testifying the authenticity of the birth they are witnessing – and they would still insist it’s all just a conspiracy.
John Stewart has a very funny take on it:
