A serious concern

Uh, everyone knows that Iraq had nothing to do with the 9/11 attacks right? Everyone knows that in 2009, right?

AP fact checks healthcare reform myths

Interesting article about how many Americans are misinformed about what's in the health care reform proposal. Some people actually believe that we'll be providing health care to illegal immigrants, funding abortion, and giving up on grandma if her bills get too costly. Where do people get these ideas?

FACT CHECK: Health overhaul myths taking root

By CALVIN WOODWARD, Associated Press Writer – Wed Aug 19, 4:11 pm ET

WASHINGTON – The judgment is harsh in a new poll that finds Americans worried about the government taking over health insurance, cutting off treatment to the elderly and giving coverage to illegal immigrants. Harsh, but not based on facts...(more!)

Bill is epic!

'Kenyan' Obama Birth Certificate Is Mine: Aussie

Forgery by birthers 'so laughable it’s ridiculous'

(Newser Summary) – President Obama’s “Kenyan” birth certificate, posted online by lawyer Orly Taitz, has been debunked as a forgery, and the original document—an old Australian certificate—it was based on has even been discovered. The Australian Broadcast Channel tracked down David Bomford, the man whose genuine birth certificate was used for the forgery. Bomford was quite shocked to have been an unwitting pawn for the US birther movement:

“That is ridiculous,” Bomford said. “Little old person in Adelaide, the president of the United States. I don’t know whether to laugh about it or not, be worried about it. Oh I definitely confirm that the birth certificate was mine. That was quite easy to see—my address, even the style of the birth certificate was an old South Australian one.” Click the Salon link below to see both documents.
