If a birth certificate is enough proof that Mitt and his mother were born in the US though his father wasn't -- the EXACT same circumstances -- he should be held to the SAME standard!

of most of the Kansan government have my deepest condolences. I should feel guilty for laughing at them but watch this:
How ya like that, idiots?

we're doing out best. Imagine how it feels to be a serious scientist in Kansas.

I am in Kansas. The nicest,friendliest people I have ever known and loved are here. But they are so naive and inconsistent with their reasoning that it's nuts.

Probably because they're listening to, and trusting, all the wrong people.

I'm originally from Missouri. Look who's running for a Senate seat there!

I believe you--I'm a big fan of the Midwest, and "Minnesota Nice" isn't just limited to Minnesota. It must be frustrating to be surrounded by such sweet, nice, genuinely good people without being able to persuade them that the party that really reflects their kind-hearted principles is the Democratic party and not the GOP.

Sometimes it's more than frustrating ; it's infuriating. Highly educated people defy all logic in favor of the rumor emails and Limbaugh.

at every turn. I feel so sorry for you. I have to go to Arizona for cancer treatment and although I honestly care for the people I've met, I LOATHE THAT STATE! It actually feels heavy.


At least, I'm able to leave and come back to northern California. You have my most sincere condolences and sympathies.

mostly by Republican pols. Time to kick out the morons in Congress.

the Onion.

From your link, Playinghardball..

but someone on the team is a smart ass. I mean that in a very positive way. The only way to answer dumb assery is with smart assery.

...a great new vocabulary word, which I will definitely be adding to my word stash.

One of my favorite "words that aren't words but should be" is "ignoranus" - one who is both stupid AND an a$$h*le.

If you are capable of smartassery, you are not an ignoranus!

For cluing me in!

after the state"--as a big Kansas fan, I have to LOL! (I know, it's probably satire)

From here:

“I would appreciate it if people would not call anyone associated with me, whether a personal or professional association.”

I suggest you keep those cards and letters coming in, folks....

PB

hit it hard!

They are all trying to act independantly.
It's all about me me me... like the RNC where they mentioned their candidate as an afterthought.
It's like Romney today after the solemn respectful ceremony of the receiving of the remains.... here he's at a political rally and acting all cheery AND SMILING as he refers to the dead and has the people behind him holding up the letters of his name.
Ptooie on them. Me me me me indeed!

So Kansas is on board with Pres Obama on the ballot..while ol Joe Montgomery licks his wounds.

Here's to the White House for not putting up with his assholeness.

Joe Montgomery is an ass.

Dildoes or dildos?, I thought they were fun...but I don't know for sure.

I have a feeling you will be hearing from us again.

the idiots in charge of the Secy of State's office (and board of elections) who are continuing this! They seem to enjoy making the whole of Kansas look like the idiots they are! It really starts with our repugnicant gov Brownback - now Kansas is known as Brownbackistan!

got really pissed off. How can KSU vet med be considered a serious scientific program with a nut as their "communicator"?

embarrassment. Because THEY aren't native Kansans. THEY come from all over the world. And medical/scientific types tend to be quite liberal, especially in academia - unless they seek professional suicide (since conservatives hate genuine universities, esp when publicly funded like KSU).

According to the full article, the Board of Objections still plans to meet on Monday to "further discuss" the case and to discuss and get to the bottom of the "unprecedented withdrawal" of the complaint. The republican idiots on the board are NOT letting go of their chance to stick it to Obama.

This is what we live with here. The few of us who venture out with liberal ideas and and work for the good of ALL the people live under (I do mean under) these bozos. You think it is bad now? You aint seen nothing yet. If we have 30 Democrats anywhere in the vicinity of the Legislature this year we will be lucky and the moderate Republicans have been decimated. We are now in the hands of the talibornagain teabillies lead by the head of the talibornagain cretins, Brownback.

Wish us luck. Don't tell me about leaving, not even going to consider it. This is my state too, once called a Free State and I am not leaving. We could certainly use some help here though. Hell, I am tickled to death that the White House even knows we exist! The Democrats certainly don't.

spiritual fervor, for a few dollars more.

He is loud and known but there are so many of these nutjobs here now.

I am beginning to think I need to drop out. Just live on my little farm, go into town as little a possible. Turn off the news, stop reading all political sites. I love it here but the crazies are making me a wreck.

of the other. No job, no health care.

I do have a couple of very young movement-politics Dem candidates I'm interested in though. They're wanting some changes in the state party, not unlike a few others I can think of.

TehCrazy™ is everywhere.

Edit to add - Tweety is talking about this now.

One who invests in his own country with his tax dollars? Or one who looks for every loophole?

The birthers get bit in the butt.

They certainly don't view Hawaii's registrar as qualified. Betting Sheriff Joe is the only one they view as qualified.

said that anyway? Good lord.

I wonder why I hadn't seen that before?!?

Yes I live in Wichita, I have come to the point of not even bringing up politics. These guys are KRAZY!!! I am trying to quit smoking its been over a month since I have had a cigarette--every time I try to quit someone has to come over and make me want to go buy a pack. !!!

Truly an hilarity.

You think the White House said that?

it's just harmless wishful thinking.

He thinks everyone is serious about this.

than sitting there with your head in your hands. The problem is these guys really believe this shit. I personally think they are a bunch of bigots. They are racists and don't like black people. I grew up in a very white small protestant town- these guys are not exposed to a lot of different cultures or ethnic backgrounds. They will always vote for the white guy who acts like he is one of them. Bush Jr could do that-Romney can't. But he is white and Obama is black. Or half anyway. Bigots, really-sad isn't it. I think I feel pity on them. I still can't laugh.

He's claiming he has been subjected to "animosity and intimidation".

They said they were dropping it, It brought about a two minute spot (very short). I will have to go over to their web site to read it. I think I was walking through the living room when it came on. KWCH.COM

I was SURE this one was fake.

These people are an international embarrassment.

Who gives a fuck?

if they declare it's no longer a state?!?!

I mean really, how fucking crazy is that?

should go through the same level of scrutiny to prove their US birth using the the same standards they're imposing on Pres. Obama. These people are disgusting.

The DC office of McClatchy news on August 31:



(Captured by a relative, before McClatchyDC.com fixed their error - so unfortunately I don't have a direct link)

The person I got it from was pointing out that her sister (who lives in Kansas) was homeless, and that her brother (who lives in Nebraska) had been moved south a few miles...unfortunately by the time I got to the link the image which wiped Kansas out was gone.

Of course, the comments by people looking at the image, trying to figure out what was wrong with the map were also amusing...

I'm glad i finished my coffee.

I'll buy a few rolls.
