I'm a hero to the Birthers. Oh, joy.

So I find this page.

It appears to be some sort of call to action for Birthers (those people convinced that Obama was born in Africa and is “President” only through nefarious deception and a cunning plan launched, apparently, moments after his birth by placing an announcement in a Hawaii paper). There’s talk of creating some sort of citizen’s grand jury to expose the whole complicated plot.

Look at the paragraph about halfway down the page:

Does that brilliantly written text sound familiar? It sure did to me, since I wrote it in 2006 as part of a joint Staff Report I did with GFactor. It’s amusing to me that the “cite” they provide at the bottom is to the court case from which the penultimate paragraph is quoted, while the first paragraph is lifted verbatim from our Staff Report without so much as a nod.

Bastards.

Holy plagiarism, Batman.

Action being taken? Or no?

You can’t prove that.

Sure I can. I have the short form of the Staff Report receipt right here.

To the Bat-Bars, Robin!

Groan!

Not good enough. Where’s the notarized version?

Well, that should be good for a couple of free drinks. Somewhere.

I think he’s joking- doctored birth certificate, doctored original Staff Report, yada yada.

Indeed, Esquire, you’re not fooling anybody with that “Certificate of Live Staff Report”. We know that Staff Report was actually written by your Kenyan doppelganger.

Bricker… is there something you’d like to tell us?

Probably an honest mistake—“Sam” the blogger probably has a lot on his mind, tending to his… “steady drip”…

Ummm… whoosh.

Hawaii “short form” birth certificate. As opposed to the “long form” that will reveal the REAL truth.

Oh, I see.

Man, Bricker, it’s getting harder and harder to disassociate yourself from the freakshow. You try so hard here to present yourself as a rational conservative (and mostly succeed) and then…this. I’d laugh, but if it were me going through it I’d be headdesking, so I’ll be nice and not get a chuckle at your expense. Unless you say it’s okay, in which case…HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

That’s hysterical. It looks like someone there did a straight cut and paste job. I think that they are missing the point, in that someone has to convene a grand jury to investigate their claims and I can’t imagine any public official wanting to waste tax payer dollars on that.

Is it so hard to believe someone equally brilliant as yourself wrote the same paragraph, independently? It’s not like it goes into specific details or anything.

Silence, knave! Nobody is as brilliant as Bricker. Except me, and only on weekends.

That’s it! The birther movement consists of a million monkeys with keyboards! I knew it!

Word for word? Yeah, that’s pretty hard to believe.

More unbelievable than two whooshes on one page of a thread?

I find that fairly believable, so yeah.
