Yeah, or another angle could be, “the administration is nurturing it by failing to provide the REAL nirth certificate as they’ve been requesting!!111!”

Exactly.
Stages of Wingnut Blame-Shifting:

(kinda like Kubler-Ross on grief, but with one crucial difference!)

1. Denial — “There are no extremists on the right”. “No one cares what Glenn Beck says.”

2. Anger — “Why the GOP? It’s not fair!”; “How can this happen to me?”; “Who is to blame?”

Once in the second stage, the individual recognizes that denial cannot continue. Because of anger, the person is very difficult to care for due to misplaced feelings of rage and envy.

3. Bargaining — “Ok, maybe there are some wackos in the GOP, but can’t we all talk about Ayers and Wright now? What about Soros!!!11!”

4. Depression — “I’m so sad, why bother with anything?” “Maybe it’s a false flag operation….there are no Republicans, only RINOs and mobys.”

5. Reboot to stage 1, repeat as necessary. “The liberals are the ones making the nirth certificat an issue; it’s all Obama’s fault anyway for not producing it!”
