CNN/U.S. president Jon Klein's tap-dancing as fast as he can as he attempts to explain why Lou Dobbs is devoting so much time to questions about President Obama's birth certificate.
"There are the facts and there are the flaps," says Klein. "There is no doubt" that Obama was born in Hawaii [and is thus a native-born citizen], but there are also people who don't believe it.
"What Lou's done," according to Klein, is to host people with a wide range of views on the subject.
"He's exploring the issue, but the facts are a settled issue," Klein said. "We're expected by our viewers to do the reporting, present the facts and a range of points of view."
Asked about his position on the "birther" story, CNN's John King said,"I think that we live in a world where there are conversations going on...that occasionally reach a point at which if you're a political reporter...they're worth keeping an eye on."
"If people still think something that is not true," then maybe CNN isn't being clear enough, he said.
So be clear! Jon Stewart was so right about you jerks.— clarktacular
Comment removed.- I thought this was going to be an article about Greg Dobbs. CNN sucks.
- Why is 0bama hiding his *original* birth certificate? He could put all of this to rest by just releasing a copy of it - therefore, he and his minions *want* this to go on and on. (That thing you see on the web is *not* the original birth certificate - it was printed on a laser printer, which didn't exist in 1961.) In Hawaii, a document like a birth certificate cannot be released to a third party. Only the 0bamassiah himself can get a copy of the original certificate of his nativity. Then he can give it to his presstitutes. But he won't. And the Democrat-Media Complex won't ask him to do it. So he's either stringing people along, or there is something there that he wants to keep secret. But we can't depend on the media, because 0bama is their guy and they are in the tank for him.— fafafooey
