    Well, well. Who’d thunk it? One of my pet theories is being tested. I’ve always said that fictional TV shows advance the liberal agenda far more than TV news shows, or anything else for that matter.

    Frankly I had not heard of NBC’s show Parks and Recreation until I read Bob Unruh’s piece:


    Birth-certificate fracas hits popular TV show
    NBC episode alludes to Obama eligibility dispute

    One thing is certain, if the issue made it to a fictional TV show Hussein’s ostriches are in deep do-do.

    Thank you NBC for testing my theory in your laboratory.

    The below shows what happens when you get your 'news' from WND. Garbage in, Garbage out.

    No matter what you might believe about Hussein’s eligibility, after reading the linked article, I asked myself “What are the odds two candidates in the same election would raise doubts surrounding their eligibility?” That question prompted a followup: “What are the odds that both candidates, McCain and Hussein, would be the MSM’s choices?”

    This is an example of what happens to people when they get their information from nutjob pseudo news sources like WND.

    Everyone in the chattering class is determined to put up a Republican candidate with eligibility problems. I can understand Democrat reasoning. A Republican candidate with eligibility problems is a win-win ticket for Democrats. Conservatives will not vote for him, and Hussein becomes respectable. I can even understand RINO and the global government crowd, but I’m baffled by conservatives with a public voice.

    On numerous occasions Marco Rubio said he will not accept the VP spot on the ticket in 2012. He repeated it to Bill O’Reilly in an interview taped last Friday:


    http://www.foxnews.com/on-air/oreil...arco-rubio-in-no-spin-zone/?playlist_id=86923

    Later in the show Brit Hume pooh-poohed the notion that Rubio would say “NO” to the offer. I tend to believe that no presidential nominee is dumb enough to choose a running mate carrying a very large monkey on his back in the eyes of many conservatives; so Hume’s view of Rubio will probably never be put to the test.

    As if Rubio is not enough, some folks are calling for Bobby Jindal:


    Could Jindal Run for President?

    Landslide re-election should garner consideration.

    http://spectator.org/archives/2011/10/25/could-jindal-run-for-president

    Jindal has the same eligibility problem that disqualifies Rubio.

    Let me close with by saying both Rubio and Jindal are as good as most of the wannabes who are running; better than a few; nevertheless, the individual is yet to be born who is so brilliant the country must have him even if he is not eligible. Anyone who thinks otherwise should be pushing Congress and the Supreme Court to eliminate the wiggle room in the Eligibility Clause. Should it be decided they are eligible they can run in 2016. If it is not settled definitively before 2016 both Rubio and Jindal will face the same resistence from conservatives —— in addition to leaving the door open for another Hussein.

    p.s. Not one journalist ever asked Rubio or Jindal if they believe they are eligible?

    None of them have asked whether slavery was outlawed or not either. Or whether they believe the earth is flat.

    Everyone born and raised here in the United States knows that anyone born in the U.S. can aspire to grow up and be elected President. There is no 'Conservative' question- there are a few dozen people who want to change the definition because of their xenophobia.

    And yet, not a single question about any of the pure white candidates, ever.

    I wonder why?

    Absolutely. People should stick to reasonable sources like MSNBC, CBS, ABC, Reuters, and the NYT. I would have written more but my giggling got the best of me.

    I don't question Obama's eligibility. Ability? Sure, who wouldn't? Intelligence? Absolutely, but that problem is rather glaring. Honesty? Get serious. This isn't SNL.
