Finally! This ought to put the whole Birth Certificate controversy behind us once and for all.
Of course, there are a few folks out there whom I’m certain will never let this go and will claim this is a forgery or has been tampered with in some way. Well, there’s just no pleasing some people, I guess.
So that all of you can now decide for yourselves, here is a copy of the official document released earlier today by the White House…
The Ron Paul candidacy in ’08 was really good to IMAO for the purposes of humor, so I thought I should give his entering the race more fanfare. What better way, I thought, than to draw a picture of him? Well, there are probably lots of better ways, but I drew a picture anyway:
Can’t really disagree with anything he says.
That got me thinking I could draw all the other GOP presidential candidates. That could take time, though, and I’ve never been clear who is officially running or not. Still, I thought I’d draw one of my favorites candidates from those who (I think) declared their intentions to run: Tim Pawlenty!

President Obama released his birth certificate and gave a statement on it, so that’s all we’ll be talking about today.
This seemed to be an issue that just fell into his lap to make people opposed to him look like cranks, but as Obama became more unpopular, more people were willing to believe that he wasn’t born in America. It certainly is an easy explanation for his disconnect from the American people — he’s not even one of them! Now the issue is actually hurting Obama, so he puts it to a rest.
Still, some birthers claimed this wasn’t about whether he was born in Hawaii but whether he’s a “natural born citizen” — whatever that legally means. But I doubt many people will care much anymore. The big money will now be in insinuating he’s secretly a Muslim. Ever seen pictures of Obama eating bacon? I haven’t. Only explanation for that: He’s a devout Muslim terrorist!
You lose an argument as soon as you bring up Hitler. That’s a lesson Churchill never learned.
Those “Bush = Hitler” signs gave me a good idea for a sign if I ever protest Objectivism: “A = Hitler”
The reason politics seems to get dominated by crazy people is that most of it is utterly asinine.
“I’ve come to bury Caesar, not to praise him. Oh, he’s being cremated? Guess I can just leave then.”
So when was the last time the GOP nominated a right-wing extremist for president? Reagan?
If I were king, I’d pass a decree that all songs must be named from whatever line is most prominent in the chorus. “Rainy Day Women #12 & 35? Off with his head!”
When you spend all day playing in the holodeck and eating your favorite food from the synthesizer, it doesn’t seem like much of a “trek”.
