I demand to see solid proof that it isn’t true. Otherwise, we must all assume it is true.

I think the way it works, according to his rules, is that unless he can provide proof to _our_ satisfaction we’ll just have to assume that he is the bastard son of a hydrocephallic dwarf and a two dollar whore.

Of course, according to the same rules, we can NEVER be satisfied.

Gosh, I _really_ hate leaving it up in the air like that. One the one side, we have his posting style, and on the other side we have, well…nothing at all.

I still can’t believe there are people that really don’t think Obama is a U.S. citizen. I mean Dopers have been talking about it for a while, but I can’t help but shake this feeling everybody’s trying to pull a colossal prank on me. Like seriously, people have lost touch with reality to this extent? Yeah right guys, I’m sure you’ve got a bridge to sell me too.

(FWIW, my uncle was born in the exact same hospital as Obama, and his birth certificate looks exactly like Obama’s, only with a totally different name!!! Clear evidence of fakery.)

Finally, you’ve said something sensible. I have absolutely zero doubt that if you were challenged to a battle of the wits, your move would be to fall asleep and poo yourself.

No, real satisfaction would require a five-dollar whore at least.

If I perceived a threat to myself, wouldn’t I be avoiding airing my opinions on a public messageboard? That’s a sure fire way for them to find out who I am!

Don’t worry. Post #55 of this thread has dispelled any thought on our part that you are sincere when you post on this board. How is that evidence concerning your family tree coming?

Oops, I nearly altered your quote then with a bit of the dreaded bolding.

Birthers can’t seem to grasp the simple concept that since they are making the accusations, the burden of proof is on them. And all they have is nutty theories and zero in the way of facts or evidence. Anyone supporting this bullshit is either a partisan consumed with hatred or a dumb-as-a-rock simpleton.

Or, in Ivan’s case, a troll. I don’t believe his involvement in that cluster-fuck of a thread was serving any aim beyond his personal amusement.

This is the second time today you have altered a quote of mine in a feeble attempt to be humorous. You know that this is against the rules, so please stop.

What, I can’t snip bits from one of your posts now? Fuck me sideways, when was that rule introduced?

See the “forum rules” sticky at the top of the thread list:

[Quote=Ed Zotti]

Quoting: do not alter words within quote tags beyond fair usage standards

Do not change quotes of other posters or off-board citations beyond fair usage standards. If you delete material, use either ellipses or descriptive tags (e.g., \<snip\>, [material deleted], etc.) to indicate you’ve done so. To add non-editorial explanatory material, use square brackets, which means things like [sic] or replacing a pronoun to make a partial quote clearer. If you add formatting for emphasis, please indicate you’ve done so, either in square brackets within the quote or immediately after the quote. Quote tags are for actual quotes only - don’t use them to paraphrase another’s argument or make a joke.  
[/Quote]

Just sayin’.

As an outside observer of that thread, it was amazing how dense **Don123** appeared to be, all of the evidence presented to him and all blatantly ignored. Of course that’s what I have seen from most of the Birther’s ranting.

As for **Susanann** , she was no better than talking to a walnut. Her little grape of a brain rolling around in her cranium apparently was over come by the arguments presented and dropped out early. To much evidence and information for her to process.

I also believe that little grape exploded, which will eventually re-coalesce. She will than take her beliefs to a newspaper comment section where there is less resistance.

As for **Ivan** , it appears he’s just poking at it with a stick for amusement.

And aside from the debate about quote mangling, yes, we _are_ the Borg. All your base are belong to us - though you will _not_ be assimilated, as doing so would dramatically reduce our collective intelligence, debate skills, and social skills.

Also, it’s so _cute_ how you think you’re outwitting us in this thread. It just makes me want to pinch your cheeks, you snookum wookum wookums, you.
