Donald Trump must have flipped what is obviously his wig this morning when President Barack Obama shockingly unveiled his long-form Hawaiian birth certificate -- thus putting an end to the conspiracy based controversy over his citizenship (for anyone with half a brain, that is).
Why did the president finally release the document? He says it's because "we're not going to be able to solve our problems if we get distracted by sideshows and carnival barkers."
Trump, the most obnoxious noisiest sideshow and loudest barker, is taking all the credit.
Once he learned of the president's disclosure, "the Donald," who's
currently pretending to run for president, met with reporters in New
Hampshire where he patted himself on the back for putting an end to the
issue he's fueled for the last two months.
"He should have done it a long time ago. I am really honored to play
such a big role in hopefully, hopefully getting rid of this issue," Trump says.
Arizona has been at the forefront of the Birther debate -- ya know,
being the only state in the entire country to consider ridiculous,
conspiracy-based legislation addressing the matter, and all.
Arizona's legislative lunatics have introduced legislation requiring
presidential candidates to prove their U.S. citizenship before their
names are allowed on the ballot in the Grand Canyon State.
The bill failed last year, but passed this legislative session with a few modifications -- namely, allowing for documentation describing what a candidate's penis looks like as a means for proving citizenship.
Thankfully, Governor Jan Brewer had the sense to veto bill
when it got to her desk, calling the bill a distraction, and noting
that she "never imagined being presented with a bill that could require
candidates
for president of the greatest and most powerful nation on earth to
submit their 'early baptismal or circumcision certificates' among other
records to the Arizona secretary of state."
There you have it, birthers -- the party's over, now shut up.
