Orrin Hatch-Headline of the day-"Hatch scrubs his website?"
The birthers are all riled up over President Obama's long-form birth certificate. It's fake! And they can prove it (but only by
completely misunderstanding how PDFs work). So the birthers are even more crazy than they were before.
Well, there's one GOP Senator who's not planning on getting caught without his finger in the wind. According to the report, "Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) -- anxious about a possible conservative primary challenger in 2012 -- has scrubbed evidence on his website of ever having supported repealing the requirement that presidents be natural born."
See, way back when Arnold Schwarzenegger was the GOP flavor-of-the-month, Orrin Hatch got the idea that he'd make the perfect presidential candidate -- with the only problem being that Ahnoldt was born in
Kenya Austria. So this was something that needed to be fixed. It didn't go anywhere, but who cares?
Hatch pulled any mention of the sponsorship of a constitutional amendment repealing the "natural born citizen" requirement from his website. He says it's because his website was redesigned. Of course, I've redesigned my blog a couple times and lost absolutely nothing, but that's just me. I'm not a big-money web design firm, so I probably did it wrong.
In any case, Hatch's office assures us that this has nothing to do with the fact that his amendment would've allowed a
SECRET MOOSLIM TERR'IST to become president and that the birthers wouldn't like that.
Case closed. (
