Trump insists that Obama was born in Kenya

(Ok, Mittens when you have your big dinner with Trump and he begins spouting all of this, how are you going to respond?)

Donald Trump told Lloyd Grove that President Obama was born in Kenya, not the United States.

Said Trump: "That's the way life works... He didn't know he was running for president, so he told the truth. The literary agent wrote down what he said... He said he was born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia... Now they're saying it was a mistake. Just like his Kenyan grandmother said he was born in Kenya, and she pointed down the road to the hospital, and after people started screaming at her she said, 'Oh, I mean Hawaii.' Give me a break."

It wouldn't have mattered if was Ferengi. It was Chekov's voice I heard in my mind.

On the other hand, when I hear Rmoney's voice, I hear Sulu in response to a scary voice, "With an arm full of this, I wouldn't be afraid of a supernova."

Live long... Etc.

But he'll get yet another pass on it.

Trump was on the View today and BaBa Wawa (who often brags about her close friendship with the Birther King) gave him a pass on all of his birther lies. None of them asked him what ever happened to those supposed Hawaiian investigators and the 'amazing things' they found.

The man has no credibility, yet the media keeps giving a forum and treating him as an honored guest.
And they let Romeny off the hook for cozying up to him.

If a Democrat campaigned with a 9/11 troofer or some other conspiracy extremist, I'm sure the press would be just as willing to look the other way.

Then maybe that roadkill-wearing, money-losing, Repub-spawning failure would shut the fuck up already.

Am I in 1990? Why are Rush Limbaugh and Donald Trump's opinions still valued and paid attention to?

....Romney to crazy shit Trump said TODAY.

In my opinion, if Mittsy wants to hang with Trump and his cash, then Mittsy gets tagged as a "birther" too.

Maybe a working journalist can ask Mittsy about the birther issue when he's in Vegas for a fundraiser with his pals, Trump and Newt, next week.
