1. I saw this referred to on the Ed Show on MSNBC tonight. Republican Rep. John Boehner said something like (I'm paraphrasing)......"I don't know a doctor that supports Obama's health care plan...."
Ed Schultz shot back with a group called Doctors for America. Ed quoted the Doctors for America website that shows that 13,988 doctors support health care reform, and quite a large number are from Boehner's state of Ohio. I guess Boehner just doesn't talk to doctors.
2. Huffington Post had a link to Firedoglake about Roy Blunt. Here is an excerpt from Firedoglake:
...Roy Blunt (Blunt is no small potato: He resigned his #2 GOP leadership position—that of Minority Whip—so that he could focus on running for Senate in Missouri.):
Blunt: What I don't know is why the President can't produce a birth certificate. I don't know anybody else that can't produce one. And I think that's a legitimate question. No health records, no birth certificate. . .
Stark: He's produced a certificate of live birth, right?
Blunt: Not that I. . . I don't believe so.
Stark: No, he has. Chris Matthews held it up on Hardball the other night.
Blunt: Take it up with Chris Matthews. . . .
Seriously. These birther Republicans are idiots. I guess I never realized that Roy Blunt was such a racist fool. You learn something new every single day.
3. Glenn Beck's claim that Obama is a racist is a horrible attack. Do you know what Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, and Sean Hannity have in common? Each of them dropped out of college because they couldn't cut it. Doesn't that say it all? These Republican birthers just can't handle the fact that an African-American lives in the White House.
