The White House takes on the Birthers directly:
Attempting to put the issue to rest, once more, [White House Press Secretary Robert] Gibbs assured reporters: “The president was born in Honolulu, in the 50th state of the greatest country on the face of the earth…There are 10,000 more important issues for people in this country to [...]

50 State Strategy?

Why? No Democrat can win North Carolina.

Well, far be it from me to kick a governor when she’s down, but somehow I missed this and I thought it was too good to pass up.
