Well, the verdict is in.
OK. It’s over. Limbaugh is praising The Donald as a hero. Trump forced Obama to produce his birth certificate. Now it’s time to move on….
No… Not so fast. I’m not going to drop this. In several interviews, eminent domain whore Trump is on record as saying, quote:
Calling it potentially one of the biggest scams in the history of politics, Trump said he’d like Obama to show his birth certificate.
“And to be honest with you, I hope he can,” he told “Today.”
If, say Larry Flint or Michael Moore were issuing similar statements about a conservative candidate, lets say Sarah Palin and the birth records of Trig, and then it turns out that Flint or Moore were proven wrong and no one in the media called them on it, the Conservative talking heads would be screaming about how they are getting a pass for these outrageous statements and the “Lame Stream Media” isn’t doing their job! Yet they are pronouncing Trump victorious and moving on, as if none of Trumps flatulent braggadocio matters.
Trump wins???? What rubes!
Anyone claiming that, please get eminent domain whore Trump to answer the obvious follow-up to these statements:
“I’ve been told that it’s not there or it doesn’t exist. “, and “I have people that actually have been studying it and they cannot believe what they’re finding,”.
How I would love to see Hannity or Levin challenge Trump about these bold statements…. But I won’t hold my breath.
PS. This latest move by the Obama camp is yet another reminder of just how inept they are at public relations. A smart media team would have let Trump produce some of the stuff that his investigators couldn’t believe they were finding… THEN release the long form certificate.
But no, they snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.
… Or something.
Andrew Sullivan asks “why wait so long“?… And then answers his own question thus:
I know it was politically savvy because, by the rules of jujitsu, Obama allowed the nutty right (is there any other variety with influence now?) to make fools of themselves.
Because, you see, Obama is the Road Runner, and all his opponents are the coyote (Meep, Meep), which of course explains why Obama’s poll numbers are so low, he’s morphing into G. W. Bush redux, and can’t seem to get much of anything right. When Sullivan became disillusioned with the war, he simply couldn’t understand why so many others didn’t follow his lead and still stuck with Bush. Strange, after everything that has happened, botched health care reform, botched stimulus, botched cash for clunkers, botched Gitmo policy, botched 2010 elections, botched and incoherent Middle East policy implementation in Egypt, Lybia, and Syria, including entering yet another war of convenience, you would think that Sullivan would finally realize that Obama is more like a regular run-of-the-mil real life roadrunner than the cartoon version….
But this is what it’s like when you have some serious political blinders on.
Personally, I would have waited until the heat of the campaign. I mean, what a blown opportunity! Just think of the damage you could have inflicted if one of the GOP nutters ended up winning the nomination! I mean, you could have done the whole Rick Lazio to Hillary Clinton thing and walked right up to the opponents pudium and… FACE… Here is the long form!!!! You Just Got PWND!!!!
Oh well.
But, on the bright side, now we get to see the idiots at World Net Daily squirm and slither and try and twist their way out of this one. The fools that follow WND just got seriously PWND!
