When I open Recent Posts and have to sift through the birther BS to see the important threads, it makes me want to just log off.

Now that the President has released his official long form birth certificate from the state of Hawaii and exposed those 'birthers" for the absolute nut jobs they are, isn't it time to relocate these "Birther" threads into the Hoax forum? After all, the Hoax forum clearly states that it is the proper place for "Lies, Scams & Fakes." If these threads don't qualify for that forum now, they never will.
It's bad enough that these people are dead set on destroying what little bit of credibility the republican/tea party had left, it seems that they are also dead set on labeling ATS as "the place" to gain unlimited access to spew their Lies, Scams & Fake accusations regarding the birthplace of the President of the U.S..
Actually, I think it may be time to create a new forum called the "Garbage Forum" which would be an ideal location for placement of this type of thread. Now that the proof is out, what are you waiting for? Put this crap where it belongs.edit on 28-4-2011 by Flatfish because: (no reason given)

A digitized image on my comp is proof??
Who has actually held this piece of paper in their hands??
FactCheck.org staffers have now seen, touched, examined and photographed the original birth certificate. We conclude that it meets all of the requirements from the State Department for proving U.S. citizenship. Claims that the document lacks a raised seal or a signature are false. We have posted high-resolution photographs of the document as "supporting documents" to this article. Our conclusion: Obama was born in the U.S.A. just as he has always said.
The Associated Press quoted Chiyome Fukino as saying that both she and the registrar of vital statistics, Alvin Onaka, have personally verified that the health department holds Obama's original birth certificate.
Fukino said she has “personally seen and verified that the Hawaii State Department of Health has Sen. Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures."
Seeing how you ask the question, www.factcheck.org...

Yeah, I can't wait for November 2012 just to see the look our your faces when he wins re-elction to 4 more years. At this point, I don't think it would matter if he produced the actual afterbirth and mucus plug from his delivery, it wouldn't be good enough for the "birther" nut jobs. Good luck with garnering enough support to remove him from office, I'll believe it when I see it.

Should All "Birther" Threads Go Directly To Hoax Forum?

You can easily identify people who choose to be ignorant and deny facts. It's useful to be able to mark someone as being completely detached from reality and then know for future reference that anything they may say is suspect to being insane.
I would even suggest a "I'm still a Birther" badge...just so we know that we are dealing with an unstable mind so that we can send out an alert to all hospitals to see if any of their psych patients are missing.
Great ideas, while we are at it, we need a special "I'm a Paid Government Shill" or "I Believe The OS Regardless" badge for some members too.
Maybe then they would remember this is a conspiracy site...
A conspiracy site doesn't mean you should ignore FACTS.
Not everything is a conspiracy...sorry.
