Um.. One question.
What exactly is being protested?

BIRTHERS vs. TRUTHERS: WAR OF THE LOONS
Rick,
You're an honest dude... BUT:
ROY BLUNT: "What I don't know is why the President can't produce a birth certificate. I don't know anybody else that can't produce one. And I think that's a legitimate question. No health records, no birth certificate."
That is "supporting them overtly," not just pandering.
You want the link to the video?

Yeah - forgot about Blount. But those others introduced the birth certificate bill and said that they believe Obama was born here.

Rick -
I agree with you up to a point. Not one "mainstream" Democratic politician ever gave credence to the truthers.
On the other hand, you have DeMint, Blunt, and several other elected GOP politicians giving support to the Birfers.
Sad, but true.
If you haven't seen it, head to TPM and watch the "leader" of the birfer movement in all her glory. If anyone can take this woman seriously after that performance today on MSNBC, then those people need help.
That is incorrect. Those legislators are pandering to them, not supporting them overtly.
In a similar fashion, John Conyers held impeachment hearings on Bush and invited truthers to testify. True, it wasn;t a real committee hearing in that it was held in the Rayburn basement. But talk about encouragement! He broached the idea of onearticle of impeachment on Bush failing to prevent 9/11.
That's loony.
