Seriously, people, get help

NewMexiKen is taking the day off to celebrate the blog’s sixth anniversary.
The posts today are being written by readers just like you. This is from Jill.

According to a poll released last week by Research 2000, only 42 percent of Republicans believe that President Obama was born in the United States.

Twenty-eight percent believe he was born elsewhere and another 30 percent are “not sure.”

Is it because he is black? Is it because he was born in Hawaii? Is it because his father was African? How can so many people actually subscribe to this idiocy?

I used to think only crazy people believed this. But even I can’t argue that 58 percent of Republicans are crazy. (Demented, maybe, but not crazy.)
