i have two vocal teabaggers in my practice - husband and wife: [View all]

[PCIntern]

the wife was in today for an 'emergency' right before the holiday of course...

She tells me: "They're still trying to find out who Obama really is and where he came from. Did you hear that they're close to finding out?" And she looks at me with those eyes that penetrate to the back of one's skull.

My reply paraphrased: "Well, your problem is that Orly Taitz poisoned the well for you. She and all the other whack-jobs posited theories and so you'll never know even if the 'right' one ever comes out. (Let me just say for the record that my method of dealiing with these loonies is to partially 'agree' with them and then diverge to sanity). See, they did that with the assassinations - by having all these theories, no one will ever know the real circumstances surrounding them - (under my breath) - except Richard Sprague (to myself I said that). Moreover (yes I really do use words like that when I'm pontificating), 'we' don't have a candidate whose likeability approaches Obama's, due to the fact that they've been in attack mode unceasingly. And that's what has happened to your cause - you're dismissed out of hand. Sorry."

She was dumbfounded...
