The birthers are insane (and as a side note, I'm being threatened with a 
lawsuit for saying so)... just like truthers are insane (which include a 
high proportion of anti-semites).

The point is, no party or ideology has a lock on f*ing nutjobs.

I won't go there on the black thing (while it is worth noting that all the White Supremacists are reccing the same 
videos the Birthers are, it doesn't mean they are a single set.  IMHO the birthers are a superset that include the 
skinheads, and unfortunately provide cover for them, but that's another issue.)

But it does - for whatever reason - go beyond "opposing his policies".  I like the guy but I still oppose some of his 
policies (though since he's a Dem I'm no more shocked than I was that Bush promoted GOP policies - and I hope/d that 
turned out to be correct).  There is a more strident tone to this opposition, a more "he is Satan" tone.  Much more 
commonly stated as:

I didn't say that he was the anti Christ but I agree it may have been harsh (unless it is true).

(i.e)"I'm not saying my dog is the AntiChrist (unless it's true, in which case I am)."
