We Alabamians have brawls at high school basketball games to embarass us in front of the nation. And we have Senator Shelby to do likewise. Whether it's passing along bogus chain emails, or juvenile emails geared to the mentality of 13-yr olds, or repeating baseless accusations, the Republicans can't seem to control their political id.
The Cullman Times reports that Alabama Sen. Richard Shelby, in a meeting with constituents, appeared to give some thought to rumors questioning President Obama's citizenship.
Another local resident asked Shelby if there was any truth to a rumor that appeared during the presidential campaign concerning Obama's U.S. citizenship, or lack thereof.
"Well his father was Kenyan and they said he was born in Hawaii, but I haven't seen any birth certificate," Shelby said. "You have to be born in America to be president."
According to the Associated Press, state officials in Hawaii checked health department records during the campaign and determined there was no doubt Obama was born in Hawaii.
