I think this is the best way to combat this nonsense: mock the ever loving shit out of them until they are so embarrassed they slither back to their basements and KKK rallies.

ROFL!!!

You can’t be president now Amanda!

De Beauvoir was 69?

She should have just said “non”.

12 siblings, with none deceased? Your Hollyweird parents weren’t having nearly enough abortion parties!

The truth is out there…

Comment #6: Maureen  on  08/05  at  10:58 PM

Hysterical.  Thank you, Amanda.  Did you know I was the secret love child of my mother and her teen idol, Ricky Nelson?  Who’d have known.  Least of all me.

My favorite is still the one that Jesse cooked up a few months ago.

Try this one!

Turns out Bugs Bunny is Kenyan too.  I saw his birth certificate.  Another childhood delusion shattered.  Weirdest thing though - he was born in New York City, Kenya.  Didn’t know there was another one.

That’s nothing. There’s a Los Angeles in South Patagonia.

Actually, they got a bunch down in Moleville, too.

(They got one in 2525 - works just like a beehive.)

oh oh ... in los Angeles ... I want to live in the pourin’ sun!

Are they seriously saying that he was born in Mombasa?  That would make absolutely no sense since Obama’s family all lives in and around Kisumu on the complete opposite side of the country.  If she wanted to give birth in a more urban area she would have gone to Nairobi.  It is closer, they have better hospitals and the weather is 75 degrees rather than 102.  If these people are gonna make up a place of birth, they should at least do a little research first.

Also, at the time of Obama’s birth, it was part of Tanzania.

Hahahaha!  I “found out” earlier today that despite being born on my closet floor, King Marley was actually not a Real American®.

wasnt Tanzania still Tanganyika back then?

Comment #20: jefft452  on  08/06  at  12:11 PM

“wasnt Tanzania still Tanganyika back then?”

Tanzania is Tanganyika and Zanzibar; Mombasa was part of Zanzibar.

Comment #21: Just a Singer in a Rock 'n' Roll Band  on  08/06  at  01:18 PM

Does that mean that Zombie Freddie Mercury is not qualified to be PM?

Comment #22: Ms Kate  on  08/06  at  01:21 PM

Ms. Kate, hahahahaha!  I didn’t think about that until the husband said the same thing.  I hope no-one takes it as racist, as I did not mean it that way in the slightest, but rather, in the sense of, See, you can even produce a birth certificate to prove the Kenyan birth of a cat you witnessed being born in your own damned American-located house.

(You wouldn’t believe how gorgeous and goofy-affectionate Marley is, which completely debunks all those myths about foreigners not liking Americans and Britons.  We almost lost him earlier this summer when he swallowed a plastic bag that clogged his bile duct and kicked off a dreadful case of hepatitis—he went from 17 pounds to 11 in the space of ten days.  But he’s all better now—and back to his former, aubergine-shaped self—thanks to my superior shoving-pills-down-the-throat technique.)

Okay, back to the topic: birthers are nuts and deserve to be mercilessly MOCKED!

Comment #23: litbrit  on  08/06  at  01:24 PM

“Q.  Where are you from, son?

A. Nairobi, maa’m—isn’t everyone?”

Catch phrases from my youth in the distant 70’s suddenly take on strange new meanings.  Oh, well—everything I know is still wrong.

Comment #24: rea  on  08/06  at  02:10 PM

But, this is a “certified copy of registration of birth” not an actual “birth certificate”, so that means you must have actually been born in…The United States!

Comment #25: bananacat  on  08/06  at  04:00 PM

Oh, Rea, countless stoned hours for that one!

Comment #26: Iam138  on  08/06  at  06:22 PM

Amanda—you’re half—shudder—Republican?  Jimmy Stewart came to UCLA when I was a student there in 1984 and spoke for—horror of horrors—Ronald Reagan.

Wikipedia tells me it wasn’t just a one-off thing for a fellow actor—ick:

oh well, the embedded link doesn’t work (drops the parnes for some reason), but cut and paste works
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Stewart_(actor)#Politics

Politically, Stewart was a staunch supporter of the Republican Party[78] and actively campaigned for Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan. He was a hawk on the Vietnam War and told interviewers that he “absolutely hated” students who dodged the draft, condemning them as “cowards”.[79] Following the assassination of Senator Robert F. Kennedy in 1968, Stewart and Charlton Heston, Kirk Douglas and Gregory Peck issued a statement calling for support of President Lyndon B. Johnson’s Gun Control Act of 1968.[80]

One of his best friends was Henry Fonda, despite the fact that the two men had very different political ideologies. A political argument in 1947 resulted in a fist fight between them, but the two apparently maintained their friendship by never discussing politics again.[81] There is brief reference to their political differences in character in their movie The Cheyenne Social Club.[82] However, in the last years of his life, his political views may have taken a less hard-line stance, as he supported Bob Dole—a moderate Republican—in 1996 and supported Florida governor Bob Graham in his successful run for the Senate.[83]

Thank U Amanda, I sent this around to my family.

Comment #29: atheist  on  08/07  at  06:00 AM

triozyg: Republicans, if they have pretty good lives, often mellow out toward the end. I’ve seen this in action.
