Federal judge in Ga. sanctions 'birther' attorney

Who agrees that NN should be fined H$20,000 for continuing to post 'birther' stories later shown to be misleading? :-)
Hubdub needs a Judge Land!

To try to avoid group polarisation, I note that the following joke is quoted:
CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS: Knock, knock.
BARACK OBAMA: Who’s there?
CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS: Kenya.
BARACK OBAMA: Kenya who?
CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS: Kenya show me your birth certificate before you’re sworn in?

thanks, bookie, I just quote some paragraphs from the article you cited:
"So unambiguous is the evidence that a spokesman for the Republican National Committee has called the question of Obama’s birthplace an “unnecessary distraction,” and most elected officials have either ignored it or dismissed it as nonsense."
...
"Several decades ago, a detachment of the American right cut itself loose from reason, and it has been drifting along happily ever since. If the birthers are more evidently kooky than the global-warming “skeptics” or the death-panellers or the supply-siders or the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, they are, in their fundamental disregard for the facts, actually mainstream."
...
"That such a wacky idea should be so persistent is, to put it mildly, disquieting. Here we are, quadrillions of bytes deep into the Information Age. And yet information, it seems, has never mattered less."

hey bookie, didn't want to spoil the fun and just posted the parts related to this forum topic.
there's still much to learn for them in the article, since it doesn't only reflect what they say, but also why (I can dieseldog crying that someone's "interprut"ing again already).

@kruijs:
Don't can dieseldog... he's one of the good guys!

@kruijs:
