re: #80 palomino

If you read the whole article, you’ll see Arpaio’s claim that he’s “doing the President a favor by trying to clear up this whole mess.” Haven’t we already heard that BS from the Donald? Arpaio is holding a press conference next week to announce his findings. Oooh, I can’t wait, maybe it will be as scintillating and informative as Trump’s absurd press conference.

And what special evidence does a fucking sheriff in AZ have about birth certificates in Hawaii?

Only his hostility to Barack Obama and his pathological need for attention. Arpaio’s birtherism is what Jonathan Kay calls the “clinical conspiracist” variety, meaning a conspiracist who is actually mentally ill. Arpaio’s birtherism seems to me a variation of Munchhausen’s Syndrome.
