The RNC is partly to blame for Trump's birtherism



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

Kombiz reminds us that it's not exactly like the RNC tried to squelch the birthers in its ranks.  Yet now the RNC seems to be blaming Obama for somehow, supposedly, raising the birther issue himself!

In my view, Obama's only mistake was not releasing that other birth certificate three years ago.  It's not clear at all why he waited all this time when the document appears to contain nothing new at all (though, granted, the wingnuts would have found some other reason to question his nationality).  Perhaps it was pique, or ego ("To hell with them, I'm not releasing it!"), that led the President to sit on this document all this time.  Then again, steadfast resolve isn't exactly the President's strong suit.
