American Idiot

MANIFESTO

The story is told that the Sage of Baltimore was once asked why, if he could find nothing to "revere" in the United States, he continued to live here. His rhetorical response: "Why do men go to zoos?"

So it is with a lot of current happenings in the republic, not least of which has to do with birther queen Orly Taitz. Of her latest escapades, David Kurtz opines at TPM

I've started to wonder if her apparent prominence in the birther movement isn't some big joke. Or maybe it just drives home how fringe these folks are.

Justin Elliott provides details of the latest plot wherein a mysterious man with a "trim upper lip mustache, not large of stature and general olive complexion" plays an important role.
