Chris Matthews: The GOP Has Become the 'Birther Party'

Chris is absolutely correct. The Republicans are nuts. Unfortunately, the Democratic party has in great measure become the party of Michael Moore.

Fahrenheit 9/11 enthusiastically endorsed by:

Bill Clinton (“everyone should see it) , Mario Cuomo (actually tried to get the “R” rating reduced so kids could see it), Terry McAuliffe (said he believed in the conspiracies that Michael Moore presented as to Bush’s motives for war), Jimmy Carter “favorite movie (along with Casablanca)”. Oh, Moore and his films have been endorsed by one more notable: Rachel Maddow (check Maddow’s transcripts and teasers for interviews with Moore—she actually believes he is a source of wisdom. )

Imagine you are an Arab and you see Fahrenheit (it was a big hit in the Arab world). If Michael Moore is correct, what is the right thing to do when you see those American servicemen and women coming towards you? I have to admit I get emotional on this subject. I have many former students who have served in Iraq—-one female student part of the bomb detail. It bugs me (even though I can’t stand Bush) when people make films which encourage foreigners to shoot them.

America is in trouble. The Democrats listen to the Daily Kos and the Republicans listen to the birthers. What a minute, I mean the Republicans ARE the birthers.
