Phil Berg: Obama is not using a fraudulent SSN

In an email Wednesday (December 7, 2011), crusading anti-Obama attorney Philip J. Berg proves that there are differences among birthers. In a lengthy treatise on social-security numbers, Phil Berg firmly rejects claims that Obama is using a fraudulent SSN and adds:

False information regarding the eligibility of Obama makes the question into the lack of Constitutional eligibility of Obama serving as our President a laughing stock.

Berg is known for bringing the first notable eligibility lawsuit against Barack Obama. That case contains many of the conspiracy theories and rumors related to claims that Obama was born in Kenya, and/or lost US citizenship while he resided in Indonesia. Berg contributed considerable false information himself, and served to set up birthers as objects of derision early on.  Berg, however, does not agree with the fraudulent social-security number theories of Orly Taitz, nor does he have any sympathy for the crank legal theory of a “two-citizen-parent” requirement for presidential eligibility propounded by Leo Donofrio and Mario Apuzzo.

It is not readily apparent why someone reject one impossible theory but buy into another one equally outlandish, but it happens. (Birther attorney Gary Kreep also rejects the “two-citizen” theory, and Leo Donofrio rejects a Kenyan birth.)

You can read Berg’s press release on the ObamaCrimes web site. The article contains some correct information on SSNs and then follows with arguments in favor of other crank claims, perhaps material for future articles here.

    Yet another birther circular firing squad.

  3. Chris says:

    Berg’s point about all these SSNs for Hawaii residents being issued out of Connecticut is new, as far as I know, For those more knowledgeable, please correct me if I am wrong. It’s not only new but rather interesting, because it effectively debunks the idea of any strict identity of state of residence and issuing office for SSNs. In theory, this should undermine one of the main birther arguments about Obama’s alleged SSN, but, as we know, that would assume rationality which appears to be in short supply among the birters.

  4. The Magic M says:

    > It is not readily apparent why someone reject one impossible theory but buy into another one equally outlandish, but it happens.

    Well, I suppose every birther more or less knows that not all the birther crap can be true at once. So some may pick one particular part of the whole and elevate that to “the only one that will blow the thing wide open” – in the hope of being the sole hero in the end.

    Which is why the “Kenyan birth” birthers, the Vattelists, the “Indonesian adoption” birthers, the “forged BC” birthers and the “fraudulent SSN” birthers all have their preferred part of the ideology. E.g. the Vattelists believe that their theory is the only true one, that one day they’ll be the shining heroes whereas the “Kenyan birth” birthers will end up a total failure.

    It’s an interesting variant of a common theme among cranks: at some point, there’s a schism, and it’s mostly due to the vanity of some leadership figures.
    (Luckily, this holds for politics as well. For example, in Germany, our two strongest right-wing (read: borderline Nazi) parties never managed to work together because both had an egomaniac wannabe Führer as leader, and neither wanted to step back to second rank.)

  5. dunstvangeet says:

    Let’s see if Berg approves my post of “The Supreme Court has already rejected your legal theory over 70 years ago. Why do you think that you don’t know that?”

    Gotta love a Supreme Court Case that is directly on point and is binding precedent directly against the exact theory that Philip J. Berg is actually putting out there.

    Absolutely nothing special about this. Just go to the rootsweb SSDI site and put in HI as last residence and CT for state of issue. It returns 500 hits (it may be query limited). Don’t you think it just might be possible that 500 people, who once lived in CT, moved to paradise and died there?

  7. GeorgetownJD says:

    Look who pops up in the comments at Berg’s blog: Cort Wrotnowski. Out of curiosity I went back to his original filing to the Supreme Court, fashioned as APPLICATION FOR EMERGENCY STAY AND/OR INJUNCTION AS TO THE 2008 ELECTORAL COLLEGE MEETING AND ALTERNATIVELY AS TO CONNECTICUT ELECTORS, filed on November 25, 3008.

    Not one mention of the “two-citizen parents” theory. Vattel is not cited. Minor v. Happersett is nowhere to be found in the brief. To his credit, the Dred Scot decision is absent.

    Only a single case is discussed. United States v. Wong Kim Ark, which Wrotnowski describes — actually, he concedes — is “a dissertation on citizenship.”

    We’ve known that the Vattel/two-citizen parent theory is a post-election construct by the birthers and until today I had thought it was first raised in December 2008 by Wrotnowski (whose SCOTUS filings were authored by Leo Donofrio). However, it is clear that Vattel was not mentioned, much less popularized, as a theory until sometime in early 2009.

    If anyone can locate an earlier source for this pseudo-legal theory, I’d be interested.

  8. GeorgetownJD says:

    Oops, November 25, 2008. Although I’m sure the birthers will still be peddling their CT well into 3008.

  9. G says:

    Yeah, it really comes down to the self-deluded ego of these particular birther “leaders” in defense of their personal pet conspiracies that they cling to…and in Berg’s case, quite a dislike of the particular Birther leaders who’ve peddled the other brands of nonsense, which he is willing to actually approach rationally enough to debunk.

    Of course he is not going to carry water for Orly’s crazy SSN lies. He & Orly can’t stand each other. For similar reasons, he has no reason to drink the kool-aid on the “2 citizen parent” bunkum either.

    That he still clings to such long debunked nonsense as the Indonesian adoption cr@p and the ludicrous born in Kenya…

    …well that just shows how myopic he is in facing reality when it comes to his personal pet smears. His excessive ego short circuits his ability to face the facts on those issues…

    My first inclination wen reading something like this is to experiment with the data. If you query about born in NY and died in HI, you get 4,435 records. MA is 1,354. RI is 197. CT is 500. This tells me NOT that CT had some sort of special system about issuing SSNs to folks living in Hawaii, but that people move to Hawaii, esp. to retire. Of the 500 CTers, 445 were 60 and older.

    I’ve engaged one who seems to be able to accept both that President Obama was born in Kenya and born in Hawaii as a foreigner. He was an infamous USENET troll, though, and I have a feeling that we witnessed his decline into severe alcoholism and his disappearance makes me think he died.

  17. Joey says:

    I guarantee with 100% metaphysical certitude that none of the “ballot challenges” to the President will be successful.

    How can I make that claim? Because, unlike birthers, I have actually READ Article IV, Section 1 of the Constitution of the United States.

    The President (and anyone who can read) has apostilles from the state of Hawaii verifying the authenticity of his birth records, from the previous Republican administration of Governor Lingle and from the current Democratic administration of Governor Abercrombie.
    The certified copies of birth records plus the apostilles (letters of verfication) are all that the President will ever need. to overcome a ballot challenge.

    The Constitution guarantees FULL FAITH AND CREDIT to any states’ records.

    Chris Berg has done only half a research job on those numbers. Just look at the names. Not one is a typical Hawaii name. Since he got those names from the SSA death list it is most reasonable to believe that all those people were people who lived in Connecticutt at one time and moved to Hawaii. Otherwise you would have at least 1/2 those names as native Hawaiian names.

    Who is Chris Berg?

  20. Just as I thought. And all I needed to do was to go to the first male name on the list. Anyone that knows anything about genealogy it is much easier to follow males than females due to name changes. When you plug John Suprano’s name into genealogy on line files you will find he lived the majority of his life in Connecticutt. There are several years worth of city directory listings for him. So he lived in Connecticutt and got his SS# in Connecticutt. But he moved and died in Hawaii. Berg just did a terrible job of research on this.
    You know that ineptocrats and Hussienites will post Berg’s comments all over the internet. A guy they to this point have claimed to be a crack pot. Well I don’t think he is a crack pot. I just think he did a poor job of research this time before he made a claim that Obama was using a valid SS# based on the SSA death list of people with Conn SS#’s who died in Hawaii. He assumed that if they died in Hawaii they were living there when they got their SS# which is totally not true.

  21. Scientist says:

    Neither Berg, Orly, you nor I can say why any individual has been assigned a particuar SSN. The people who can are the SSA and the IRS. Since the President has filed taxes under the SSN commonly assumed to be his for many years (beginning long before he was President, or even a Senator), we know that it is legitimately his. Not because I say so or Berg says so, but because the folks who issued it accept it as such. You are of course welcome to file a report with those agencies if you believe that someone is using a fraudulent SSN. Attempts to guess why someone has a particular SSN is like trying to guess why the dollar bill in your pocket has a particular serial #.

  22. Majority Will: Who is Chris Berg?

    Chris is the person I responded to. Berg is the person who is using Hawaii SS death records to claim Obama is using a valid SS#. This basis is wrong. The people Berg ID’d are people who lived and got their SS# in Connecticutt. They moved to and died in Hawaii. Very poor research on Berg’s part.
    Now we will be seeing all over the internet ineptocrats and Husseinites claiming Berg is a great debunker of the SS issue. And he is the one they have all called a crack pot up to this point. But just as soon as he puts forth a statement that is not true he becomes their hero. That doesn’t surprise me tho. They cling to a lot of falsehoods.

  23. Scientist says:

    Majority Will: Who is Chris Berg?

    Chris de Bergh is a songwriter who has written some pretty good songs.

  24. Scientist: Neither Berg, Orly, you nor I can say why any individual has been assigned a particuar SSN. The people who can are the SSA and the IRS.

    Your comment is not on the whole factual and therefor unacceptable.
    First “filed taxes under the SSN commonly assumed to be his for many years (beginning long before he was President, or even a Senator), we know that it is legitimately his.” His uncle has an illegal SS# too that he used for many years. That didn’t make it “legitimately his.” No use of an illegal SS# can make it “legitimate” for anyone. Second, “because the folks who issued it accept it as such”. There is no way to know how Obama got his illegal SS#. What we do know is that the “SSA HAS VERIFIED THE NUMBER 042-68-4425 THE ONE OBAMA IS USING NEVER WAS ISSUED TO HIM.” You are correct Orly, Berg, you, or I can’t say why a SS# IS ISSUED to any particular person but we all can say Obama’s SS# is illegal BECAUSE IT WAS NEVER ISSUED TO HIM BY THE SSA.

    We know no such thing. And don’t give me the E-verify-once Taitz and her goons leaked his # then he was assigned a new one, as anyone who was a victim of identity theft by the Russian Mafia would be.

    Lets review the facts and you will see there is not the slightest evidence that Mr Obama is conducting SS fraud:

    1. He was born in the US and was entitled to an SSN.
    2. Pretend if it makes you happy that he was born outside the US. His mother was a citizen, so he was entitled to citizenship upon his arrival here (we have been through these laws numerous times here, sorry you missed it). Failing citizenship, he would have been a legal permanent resident, as any mior child of a US citizen is automatically. They also get legitimate SSNs
    3. Is he some SSN scammer? He lived in cheap apartments in NYC. Then he lived in cheap apartments in Chicago. He got federal student loans, which require a valid SSN (we know because people in Iowa were arrested for breaking into his student loan records). In fact, he lived very simply until his book became a best-seller, at whiich point he bought a house whose porchase price was comfortably affordable given his book royalties, as declared on his tax returns. No evidence at any point of unreported income. If he has been running a giant scam for the last 30 years, show me the money.

    As for his uncle, who cares? His uncle did not have a US citiizen mother and was not entitled to a legal SSN. According to you if some uncle that I saw once or twice iin my life were a bank robber, then I must be one too. Neither the facts, nor logic, nor common sense supports your assertions. You are simply an ignorant doofus.

    You make no refutation to anything I said. “1. He was born in the US ” I said nothing about where he was born. You are beating a dead horse there. “2” is nothing more than a rehash of #1. Again I never mentioned anything about his birth. So far you sound like a broken record debating something that was never said. The more I read your rebuttal the more I think you are debating yourself. I never mentioned anything about his tax records (I think you did) I never said anything about the R.E. he claims on his tax return. (But interestingly the Chicago tax records show no property taxes paid by Obama on the house he supposedly owns in Chicago) And then when all your rantings fall aside you make a personal attack. Typical very typical. And simply to make up stories ” don’t give me the E-verify-once Taitz and her goons leaked his # then he was assigned a new one” SSA does not and has never re-issued any numbers. Its your statement prove it. And I never mentioned E-Verify either. I would love to post the document by the SSA on here that says SS# 042-68-4425 WAS NEVER ISSUED TO OBAMA. You can not get around that. You ask, “Is he some SSN scammer?” Well according to the SSA evidently so. It is their offical report you are arguing against not me.

  40. G says:

    Wrong. SSA has an entire process and *several* reasons for re-assigning someone a new SSN. One of the key reasons listed is Identity Theft. *duh*

If it is capable of posting images tell me how to get them on here if you REALLY want to see it. But I doubt you want to see anything that contains the truth.

  42. G says:

    No. You are obviously the one who has no ability to comprehend an argument.

    Nobody here is saying that particular number didn’t belong to Obama at some point. So, you are merely making up arguments and arguing with yourself on that particular issue, I guess.

    The points are simple:

    1. There is no fixed correlation to the SSN prefix and the state you live in or were born in. The SSA clearly states such on their site. Therefore there is nothing strange about the SSN number you seem so obsessed with for Obama.

    2. Yes, that appears to have been his number for most of his life and it also is quite clear that number recently had to be changed to a different one. Yes, Identity Theft arguments apply here. What Orly’s minions did in claiming to be him in getting that info is itself a form of Identity Theft. Second, once Orly or anyone else publically and irresponsibly displayed his SSN online for the world to see, that was clear justification for the SSA to issue him a new number going forward. Pretty simple, really.

    Now, you keep claiming to be making a point about something… yet I fail to see any actual point or argument being made by you. Just some debunked nonsense and rambling whining…

    jollyroger88805: I would love to post the document by the SSA on here that says SS# 042-68-4425 WAS NEVER ISSUED TO OBAMA. You can not get around that. You ask, “Is he some SSN scammer?” Well according to the SSA evidently so. It is their offical report you are arguing against not me.

    jollyroger88805: You are correct I’ll be happy to post the actual copy here if it is possible to do so. So far ever way I have tried to post it this forum evidently is not cabable of taking. If it is capable of posting images tell me how to get them on here if you REALLY want to see it. But I doubt you want to see anything that contains the truth.

  44. G: Wrong. SSA has an entire process and *several* reasons for re-assigning someone a new SSN. One of the key reasons listed is Identity Theft. *duh*http://ssa-custhelp.ssa.gov/app/answers/detail/a_id/79/kw/issue%20new%20social%20security%20number

    Thanks for posting those re-issue guidelines. You still have the same problem tho. Re-issues are all after the fact. It does not change the fact Obama was never issued the SS# 042-68-4425. You have already admitted he has used it. The SSA has already verified it never issued that number to Obama.

  45. Northland10: And where is Orly from?

    Did I say I had any credence in her? No I haven’t said that. But she is a naturalized citizen from California. The Magic M indicated they are German or at the least a German citizen now. If The Magic M is a naturlized U.S. citizen I’ll be happy to provide an apology for misreading their statement.

But just as soon as he puts forth a statement that is not true he becomes their hero. That doesn’t surprise me tho. They cling to a lot of falsehoods.

    You seem to be missing the point. The point is that birther just can’t agree on what their concerns are.

    No, you are the one completely missing the point and lost on some fools errand.

    All I’m saying is that whatever SSN number belonged to the president, IF it was publically revealed, would be able to be legitimately changed by SSA to a new number to use from that point forward, due to issues of Identity Theft. Simple as that. Of course re-issues happen after the fact!

    You still have YET to demonstrate that the President *ever* had anything but a valid SSN during his lifetime. That burden of proof is on you.

    jollyroger88805: Thanks for posting those re-issue guidelines. You still have the same problem tho. Re-issues are all after the fact.

Oh wait a minute there is one other possiblity but I only mention it as the only other way to collect any money but it wouldn’t be from SSA. He could sell the stolen numbers. But this is all pretend. I like to deal with reality. And the reality is the SSA has verified SS# 042-68-4425 was NEVER ISSUED to Obama.

  83. misha says:

There are several democrats in and forced out of Congress that fill that bill but they are still citizens and as far as I know have valid SS#’s

    His story is the American story — values from the heartland, a middle-class upbringing in a strong family, hard work and education as the means of getting ahead, and the conviction that a life so blessed should be lived in service to others.

    With a father from Kenya and a mother from Kansas, President Obama was born in Hawaii on August 4, 1961. He was raised with help from his grandfather, who served in Patton’s army, and his grandmother, who worked her way up from the secretarial pool to middle management at a bank.”

    The IRS’s Integrated Data Retrieval System consists of multiple databases, including a TIF (Taxpayer Information File) that contains contains taxpayer data information for every singletaxpayer. IDRS matches the name, SSN and date of birth to SSA records.

    It simply is not possible to file a tax return using a SSN that was not assigned to the individual.

    Anyone who knowingly and willfully uses SSNVS to request or obtain information from SSA under false pretenses violates Federal law and may be punished by a fine, imprisonment or both.

    Regardless of all that, this probably isn’t anything different than the person who illegally used the Self-Check system to try and see if Obama’s reported SSN was valid.

    They also have some funky limitations too. I remember reading about a woman who was fired from her job because her employer used E-Verify, and after they spelled her middle name incorrectly. They weren’t allowed to use it to verify a current employee, but some employers do all sorts of strange things.

    As for this system, I wouldn’t necessarily trust that it is the be all and end all. There apparently is a category for verification result that says “1 = SSN not in file (never issued).”

    http://www.socialsecurity.gov/employer/ssnvshandbk/return.htm

    I wouldn’t take it at face value that it’s 100% accurate. Most of us suspect that Obama likely has a new SSN because of how his initial SSN was made public. I could imagine that an invalidation might cause some strange results if the invalidated number is used for any kind of verification purpose.

    Keith: Just so you understand, it appears that this service is for employers to verify the SSN details of their employee for the purposes of filling out tax forms.

    Are you the direct employer of Barrack Husein Obama and are you filling out his tax forms?

    I thought not.

    You would then appear to be breaking the law by using that service in the manner you are using it.

    People who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.

    Isn’t it illegal to post the unredacted SSN of another person?

  104. Scientist says:

    jollyroger88805: How would he be collecting any money from SSA until he is either retired or disabled? Oh wait a minute there is one other possiblity but I only mention it as the only other way to collect any money but it wouldn’t be from SSA. He could sell the stolen numbers.

    How can you sell a number that isn’t connected to a name? If that is possible, then I will just generate random strings of 9 digit numbers and sell them on EBay. There are 999,999,999 of them, so if I can get $1 for each one, and add iin $1 of my own, I will be a billionaire.

  105. You know if Doc wanted to do it he could report jollyroger88805’s IP address to the FBI tip line for jolly’s illegal access to the SSA employee verification system and encouraging others to violate the law.

    That’s a great idea since they would likely perform all sorts of background checks on this person, perhaps visit him at his home or place of employment, maybe recommend an IRS audit or any number of fun, time passing adventures.
    That *would* be Jolly!

    Well there’s your problem you’re not even spelling the President’s name correctly

    Then they will intern him at the FEMA camps they have set aside for birthers

    If I use Birfer logic I would also conclude that encouraging others to violate the law is a conspiracy and would invite a RICO action.

    Yep, he cannot even illegally access the eVerify system properly. I wonder how jolly manages to ties his shoes each day.

    The SSA has its own enforcement division. The direct approach might work better.

  112. The Office of the Inspector General website doesn’t specifically list misuse of the SSVN site as something they would investigate but I am sure they would forward such a report to the appropriate group.

  113. sfjeff says:

    I will just point out for the third time- Jolly behaved exactly as Jolly behaves every time he ‘participates’ in a thread.

    Big claims, insults, and when everyone refuses to play by his rules, he stomps off in a huff.

    Notice- for example- that he never responded to anyone’s suggestions that he report this to the SSA. I have always found Birthers faux outrage rather peculiar in that they are convinced that they have ‘proof’ of this or that against Obama, but the extent of their outrage is only to post it on the internet, rather than stomping into the SSA or FBI and announcing that they will be occupying the office until someone investigates their ‘proof’.

    I am not a huge fan of the Occupy movement. As an aside, their attempt to block West Coast ports next week is particularly asinine for many reasons. But they are showing far more courage of their convictions than Birthers are.

    Fortunately, he has “TGIF” tattooed on each of his feet. Now, if he could just figure out the left-right dichotomy.

    Yeah, I pointed this out in another forum- regardless of what is true or what is not- this claim in particular means that no matter what Birthers are liars.

    They either lie to get into the SSA database, they lie about whether they entered in the data correctly or they lie about the results. We really don’t know for certain which lie is the correct lie, but no matter what, it shows Birthers are willing to lie for their cause.

  116. Jolly could use the OIG link posted above to report SSN fraud if he thinks that it has been committed by President Obama. Of course he will not do that because the first question they would ask is “So exactly why would someone from Circle Jerk, Ohio be poking around in a system that clearly states that it is only to be used by an employer of the person in question?” Then he could try Greg Hollister’s excuse that the President works for all of us and see if the OIG was amused.

  117. Keith says:

    Majority Will: Isn’t it illegal to post the unredacted SSN of another person?

    Dunno. I expect it is.

    Used to be a very restricted number of people that could legally insist on seeing your SSN and they were certainly forbidden to do anything with it that didn’t specifically pertain to the reason they were allowed to use it (e.g. income reporting for your employees). So many organizations tried to use it as ID (which the card specifically forbade), like Universities that it is possible that the rules have changed since I have lived in the USA.

  118. brygenon says:

    GeorgetownJD: Oops, November 25, 2008. Although I’m sure the birthers will still be peddling their CT well into 3008.

    The long-dead citizen parents theory seems to have first been dug up by Leo Donofrio. A form of it appeared in his application for stay to the U.S. Supreme Court, Donofrio v. Wells, which dates from shortly after the election. Donofrio noted it on his old blog on 10 November 2008.
    http://blogtext.org/naturalborncitizen/myimages/album2141.html
    http://blogtext.org/naturalborncitizen/index1/index.html

    Not all the documents from Donofrio’s pre-election New Jersey filings are available (as far as I’ve been able to determine). His “Supplemental Fact Sheet” of 27 October 2008 references Obama’s birth certificate, but not the Vattel argument.

    In fact, could the eVerify failures be as simple as not entering our President’s name exactly as it appears in the SS DB? Some of the DB’s are quite explicit in their requirements.

  120. The Magic M says:

    Sef: could the eVerify failures be as simple as not entering our President’s name exactly as it appears in the SS DB?

    As I use to tell birthers: if that were the case, eVerify would return either “not found” or “mismatch”. It doesn’t, so it means this is/was the SSN assigned to Obama.
    Birfers keep bitchin’ about eVerifiy saying something as vague as “marker set” (very likely due to him having been assigned a new SSN after his old one becoming public), but of course they spin it as if it had returned “mismatch” or “never assigned”.

    There’s another possibility that I haven’t seen discussed. It might well be that for security reasons the SSA and other government agencies block access to information about the President and other high officials in public databases such as eVerify. This could be long-standing policy for all we know. It’s all very nice to pretend the President should be treated like everyone else, but he isn’t. He doesn’t have to take his shoes off to get on Air Force One nor does Air Force One end up 23rd in line for take-off. I wouldn’t expect to find his persoanl phone number in the Washington, DC directory. Just out of curiousity, did anyone ever run Bush through eVerify while he was in office? It’s quite possible you would have gotten the same answer you get for Obama now.

  122. SSNs were issued centrally in 1961. I have an article on it here somewhere.

    Chris: For those more knowledgeable, please correct me if I am wrong. It’s not only new but rather interesting, because it effectively debunks the idea of any strict identity of state of residence and issuing office for SSNs.

  123. More likely is that the President applied for a new SSN once his was plastered all over the Internet, thereby making the old one invalid.

  124. To the best of of my knowledge there is no federal law preventing it.

    Majority Will: Isn’t it illegal to post the unredacted SSN of another person?

  125. Obviously I have other ways to waste my time on fruitless gestures.

    Dr. Conspiracy:

    From what I’ve gathered, It’s not illegal for someone to post it online but if someone else uses the SSN to commit a crime, then the poster could be charged with aiding and abetting if you can prove the poster was knowingly and willfully aiding somebody in the commission of a crime.

    Intent is a long road.

    That would be hard to prove. But I would think that you could be opening yourself to civil liabiility by posting a person’s name and SSN, if an identity thief got hold of it and caused damage to the person’s credit rating or hurt them in some other way.

  129. ASK Esq says:

    Not that it would have done any good, but why didn’t anyone bother to tell jollyroger that the SSA never said that Pres. Obama’s SSN had never been issued to him, just that it was no longer matching him? When Susan Daniels (if I remember correctly) got that response from her illegal access of the SSVS, Orly declared just what roger is saying now. So, we know where he got it from, and it should have been a simple matter to shoot him down immediately.

    How many estimated millions has he paid to conceal these records?

  131. The Magic M says:

    James M: How many estimated millions has he paid to conceal these records?

    The way birfers have been inflating the “2/3/4/… Obama millions” every time they mention, they should have arrived at “150% of the GNP” by now. Which probably is why they have switched to just saying “millions”.

  132. Horus says:

    G: Yeah, it really comes down to the self-deluded ego of these particular birther “leaders” in defense of their personal pet conspiracies that they cling to…and in Berg’s case, quite a dislike of the particular Birther leaders who’ve peddled the other brands of nonsense, which he is willing to actually approach rationally enough to debunk.

    These leaders of the different factions of the movement are in competition with each other as they fight over a very limited amount of Birther cash.
    Naturally they are going to try to trivialize and debunk the theories of their competitors in their quest for the lions share of the cash.
