29. Godamn but we can dream
"It's not beyond the ken to imagine Jeff Sessions or John Boehner or some other half-wit taking up this birther thing, demanding an investigation, special prosecutors, and 27 eight-by-ten glossy color photographs with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one. Why not nip it in the bud?"

That would be the best thing this week. If they did manage to make it into a real to do, they would come out looking twice as stupid as they already do, and in the mean time it would suck all the life out of any political re-animation they are planning for the republican party. It would take the focus off of anything they might want it on, and focus it completely on how beyond idiotic they are.

Why "nip" such a potential gift? If someone gives you a prize winning flower bulb, you wouldn't rip it out of the ground as soon as it looked to be sprouting would you?

I begin to think you would. Interesting.
