Tancredo (on the birth certificate): IT'S A TRICK!!! RUNAWAY!!!
http://thinkprogress.org/2010/04/28/tancredo-obama-birther/

Tancredo’s Conspiracy Theory: Obama Hides His Birth Certificate To Stir Up The Right And Make Us Look Crazy

COLMES: Do you really believe – you know he was born in Hawaii right?

TANCREDO: I have absolutely no idea where he was born.

COLMES: You’ve seen he was born in Hawaii; he was in two Hawaiian newspapers within two days of his birth.

TANCREDO: Anybody can put an article in a newspaper. Just show me your birth certificate!

Tancredo then claimed that Obama is purposefully withholding his birth certificate in order to fuel birther conspiracies that make the right wing look nuts:

TANCREDO: Now they very well not want to show it because they want to propagate this whole thing that’s going on about birthers. … They may be doing it for that reason; I don’t know why they don’t want anyone to see it. … They want it propagated because you know –

COLMES: It makes your party look nuts!

TANCREDO: Yeah well maybe that’s why they don’t produce document, I don’t know.

3. Being crazy makes them look crazy. And he has a funny way of hiding his birth certificate.
I mean me, I want to hide something, I don't put it on the internet. But these people aren't going to find it unless he starts taking out ads in End Times Quarterly and Mobility Scooter Enthusiast, or getting copies stuck on the side of those 55 gallon drums of diet coke they sell at drive through places instead of game tokens.

4. I guess they figure the birthers are just too stupid to realize this has been debunked
Tiresome, stupid critters, those knuckle dragging neanderthals are.

5. So he subscribes to the theory they specially left Hawaii for the birth
but knew they needed to cover it up, so they arranged for a Hawaiian hospital to insert Barack in the list of babies for that day that they sent to the newspaper ...

He thinks they had to go to great lengths to make it look as if Barack was born in Hawaii, but to really have him born in Kenya/a secret base in an extinct volcano/wherever else they think he was born. When it would have been so much easier just to have him born in Hawaii, where they already were. :shrug: Tancredo must think Barack's dad had some religious belief that his son had to be born outside the US, and he was willing to go to any lengths for that to happen, but to make it look as though he was born in the USA ...

Yes, Tancredo is nuts. And this has helped demonstrate that. There is a silver lining to it.

15. Tancredo must also think President Obama's parents were rolling in money
Two college students, neither from wealthy families, packing up and flying from Hawaii to Kenya and back. Riiiiight. Like they could afford to do that.

9. Making Republicans look nuts is about as hard as making Limbaugh look fat.

14. What kind of an idiot spouts lunacy, then 2 minutes later, says the other side is making him do it
to make him look nuts. You claim you're being manipulated, acknowledge it publicly, then go ahead and say exactly what you just claimed they are tricking you into saying.

Makes my brain hurt. ;)
