Tin Foil Hats

Oh my goodness!!!

The tin foil hats are out in full force now that Obama won the election.

Let's see, where should we start?

President elect Obama was born in Hawaii. Shoot, the birth announcement was even in the local newspaper.

Do the tin foil hats listen to reason? Nope!

Do the wack jobs that blather on about every Internet rumor realize just how stupid they sound? Oh, yeah, you're right, they don't.

Every piece of proof presented to the conspiracy theorists is somehow not enough. Of course, LOL, the truth is never enough for someone who is bound and determined to believe in every crazy fantasy that comes down the road.

And why do these clowns believe it?

Well, I suppose there's lots of reasons. Probably not good ones for those of us who don't live over in their alternate reality. But then, like I just said, we don't live there.

Is it because Obama is African-American?
Is it because his father was born in Africa?
Is it because he spent part of his formative years living overseas?
Is it because he's a Christian?
Is it because he's a Democrat?

Or is it all of the above mixed with a definite lack of medication in the tin foil hat world?

I suppose I shouldn't make fun of these guys. It's not nice to mock the reality-impaired.

But good grief people, get a CLUE!

Just because someone SAYS that there's a conspiracy, it doesn't mean that it exists. Just because one of these guys is trying to take the question to the Supreme Court doesn't mean that he has standing or that the case has merit.

In fact, before you blindly follow that trail of shiny bits of tin foil, maybe you should do a google search of the conspiracy theorists first. Try just using their full names. In fact, I took the time to google it up for you.

Remember, don't believe everything you read. When in doubt, go to the source, which in this case would be the State Department.

Not some clown on the Internet.

Tin Foil Hats are not the latest fashion statement -- despite all the hype.
