That a lot of Obama policy has been supported by Republicans over the years doesn't seem to be particularity of interest to the Birthers or those Republicans riding on their coat tails.
Really? Blanket statement? The problem is that when we are discussing the problems of the left you call it a fringe element yet when it goes to the right, the shadow casts far and wide as clearly all Tea Baggers are birthers are Republicans are racists. All one has to do is connect the dots.

P.S. - Obama's mother is a born US citizen, what else do we need to know?
