Former New Hampshire Gov. John Sununu (R) said on Monday during an appearance on Fox News that President Obama is “inciting” birther conspiracy theorists by planning a trip to Kenya this summer.
“I think his trip back to Kenya is going to create a lot of chatter and commentary amongst some of the hard right, who still don’t see him as having been born in the U.S.,” Sununu said on the show “America’s Newsroom.”
“I personally think he’s just inciting some chatter on an issue that should have been a dead issue a long time ago,” he said.
Obama announced Monday morning that he plans to travel to Kenya in July to attend the 2015 Global Entrepreneurship Summit. Conspiracy theorists have long claimed Obama, who was born in Hawaii, was secretly born in Kenya and therefore is not legally qualified to be President.

So, once again, we find it’s Obama’s fault Republicans are stupid and crazy. Thanks, Obama!
Just as, as Lindsey informed us a few days ago, its Al Gore’s fault stupid, crazy people are climate change deniers.
“Once upon a time, a monster made all the children in the village afraid”
“Daddy, what’s a ‘monster’ ?”
“Let me show you…”
My oh my… how he has become a vile old man.
The President obviously likes Schadenfreude as much as the rest of us.
Obama should troll the shit out of birthers by saying “Ahhh, good to be finally home.” when he gets off Air Force one in Kenya.
