Oh you poor dumb birthers, I actually pity you. Almost.
This message is for any lurking birthers/freepers.

Look. Look where your madness has led you. You are laughingstocks, your name synonymous with "crackpots." Your knight in shining hairpiece, the only one loony enough to pick up your banner after even Sarah Palin thought it was too crazy, was roundly mocked and humiliated by the president on national television. He sat, stony-faced, while the entire room laughed at him, even those who you might think would have had his back.

Your party lies in ruins. The president has already begun his re-election campaign and is building his war chest; a war chest which is projected to dwarf even his last impressive effort. You? Your front-runner was just obliterated. Who else is running? Mitt? You hate him, and he's a (gasp!) socialist with health care baggage. Huckleberry? Yeah, good luck with that. Sarah? Nope, too busy spinning tweets into gold. Herman Cain, the guy who nobody's ever heard of, but whose name sounds like the guy who lost last time? Good luck with that, too. Huntsman might have had a shot, but it looks like he's keeping his powder dry for '16. Smart man. Really, you've got nobody but the last election's also-rans; nobody else wants to be the sacrificial lamb for 2012's slaughter.

Nobody is coming to save you. To have a chance at winning, a candidate would have to be hitting the trail already, have their PAC working hard ringing phones and gathering funds... at least have an exploratory committee put together. You can try to draft a governor, might be your best shot really. Still, they'd be playing catch-up right out of the gate, and nobody campaigns like Obama.

Face it, you've lost before you even begin. Obama might as well be running unopposed.

So thanks, birthers! You sure do put a big ol' smile on this Jester's face.
:evilgrin:
