re: #218 tradewind

Hell’s bells. They’d be fools not to nurture it. Any time your opponent gives you an opportunity like that, why would you let it die?
I would expect the Republicans to do the same thing.

The way I see it even if the Democrats “let it die” it wouldn’t die. The amount of “nurturing” that is done is only in the capacity of reporting it or talking about it. It’s not them that are stoking the fires of nirtherism, it’s the fringe elements of the right and this is seen at the Tea Party gatherings, World Net Daily (who sells their email list to the GOP), the infamous Orly Taitz, and other previously mentioned groups and individuals.
