No, I don’t believe Obama was born in Kenya, but he certainly let that image get out years ago, and only recently stopped that. As late as 2004, even the Associated Press was referring to "Kenyan-born" Barack Obama<\/a>. Laugh all you want at the birthers, but they at least had this sort of thing to back them up (for a while).<\/p>\n The Family Research Council has a count of the number of states that have legislated against same-sex marriage<\/a>. Depending on how you choose what kind of legislation (law, constitutional amendment, etc.), the number changes, but here’s the biggie.

As recently as 2006, 51 percent of Americans described themselves as \u201cpro-choice.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n And speaking of the war, the actual, physical<\/em> war on women by Planned Parenthood gets exposed by hidden camera videos<\/a>. Predictably, the media yawns<\/a>.<\/p>\n Further, "Congressional Black Caucus Upset By Pro-Life Black Americans"<\/a>. Those tolerant folks. <\/p>\n The Washington Post took 20 years to realize that Dan Quayle’s argument against the TV show Murphy Brown was right<\/a>. It took Candace Bergen 10 years herself<\/a>. And of course some of us knew that from the beginning<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n
