I’m telling you, it’s getting harder and harder to believe the human species is intelligent. I’ve now lost count of the number of supposedly intelligent individuals who have told me personally that I’m an idiot because I’m _not buying into the latest WONJCT_! Well, sorry, but I don’t see “The Obama Deception” as documentary. It’s pure propoganda!

Anyway, can The Teeming Millions help debunk this drivel? I’m just flat-out too tired to give it a go without your help.

Thanks!

Oh… it’s an Alex Jones bit? The guy who believes in the Illuminati, and uses them to explain his conspiracy wonkiness?

Honestly… I’ve found that taking the time to refute his points individually is a waste of time. Like clearing up the mistakes a creationist makes. As fast as you clear them up and point out that they’re bullshit and/or fabrications, they just fabricate new ones.

Now that y’all have had your fun, can we actually address the query posed in the original post?

I believe there’s a forum around here for asking honest queries and expecting posts to remain useful and on-topic. What’s it called, um, the… BBQ Pit? Oh no, I think it’s another one, um… something about… questions, I think?

And I don’t personally see anything wrong with a War On New Jersey and Connecticut, except maybe it should be expanded to include Pennsylvania.

It is dopese for asking you to flesh out your thread. There are a lot of anti Obama nut theories. Please tell which one we are supposed to argue. We already proved he was not a citizen and every government agency , writer and newsmen in the world agreed to cover it up.Whats your poison?

Sure.

Ahem.

It is untrue.

That’s really about as good an explanation as I can give, considering people couldn’t figure out WONJCT without your help let alone what the fuck you’re talking about despite numerous requests for clarification. And frankly I don’t think this thread deserves this much of my typing effort to even inform you of this fact.

Your post did nothing to reverse this trend.

Even if Obama was born in Kenya and a few days later got rushed to Hawaii for a fake “certificate of live birth”… so what? It’s not like Kenya programs newborn sleeper agents.

…or do they?

Not any more, they don’t. But they did in 1961, when Obama was born and it was still a British colony. The Queen foresaw that she might need protection some day for her drug-running operations.

Are we sure about that date? We’re through the looking-glass, so maybe it’s turned upside-down!
