I had someone tweet at me the other day that birtherism (which was started by Hillary Clinton, by the way) wasn't about race, but about a particular Illinois law.
Because, you know, Illinois law is how we determine President.
"This birtherism stuff is a soft place for racism to land. It is a soft place for racism to land plain and simple."
It's ... what, now? "A soft place for racism to land." So, is birtherism, like, a pillow for racism? Racism can drink a sip of Brisk brand birtherism and fall over in bliss, landing in the soft place?
these awesome buttons that Best Tax Assessor-Collector in the known universe created to commemorate DVRs who register 100 or more people. I saw one who registered, at last count, 855 people!
My husband was born in the states but raised in the Phillipines, Uganda and Pakistan until age 12, due to being born to a family in long-term UN service. Nobody ever says anything to him about his "otherness."
I shook me booty once. The bag broke and me doubloons went all over the poxy deck!
Well, if we're going to talk *that* way, y'know, Castellanos doesn't sound like a Real Amurkan name, it sounds other, like maybe a Messican rapist....
JFC who even listens to that old, dried up dog turd anymore. He's been incredibly wrong for years now.

WTF ARE THEY EVEN SAYING?
"Yeah, you know there's an otherness to this candidate."
"She has a hoonanny?"
"OH, NO, I WOULD NEVER SAY THAT! I just meant that she's ... uh, aloof, maybe, and stuff."
You mean that wasn't a commercial for the new fondue place up the road?
They're saying *dogwhistle* it's okay to express racism in the form of birtherism.

Sounds more Portugese to me. Or maybe Greek?
Eh file it under "Others"
Sounds dumb
Requires Congressional investigation(s) to be sure.
The real actual Silent Majority, yes.
Unfortunately that's not the case for the vocal minority....
