Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
I found it sad that Bob Metz had to bring up the Obama conspiracy citizenship theories…give that up guys! Facts only please!
Romney didn’t loose the election because he was against Big Bird.
As a matter of Fact, there has never been any issue about Obama’s citizenship. When the issue originally gained prominence in the news media, it was about Obama’s place of birth, not his citizenship, which is a central concern regarding qualification for presidential candidates in the United States. The news media who carried the story at the time were legitimate national broadcasters and reporters, not conspiracy theorists.
As a result, on May 5, 2011, Robert and I devoted a single one-time segment of Just Right #198 to the subject of “Obama’s Fake Birth Certificate – A Real Fake Or A Fake Fake?” in which we reported all the known Facts about the issue at the time, and we have never mentioned it since. Nor do we have any particular interest in the issue, per se. So it’s a complete puzzle to me why anyone would advise us to ‘give that up guys!’ as if to suggest we’ve been harping on the legitimacy of Obama’s birth on some kind of regular basis.
As to this current broadcast of Just Right, the issue was merely mentioned in conjunction with numerous other issues in my very simple and factual observation that I was unaware of any previous president who had to endure such unusual controversies and vitriol. Among the vitriolic incidents I raised, included with, and in addition to, the birth certificate debacle, were: Ann Coulter’s calling Obama a ‘retard’ during an interview on a coast-to-coast radio interview, the popular YouTube video “If I wanted America to fail…”, Obama’s history-setting deficits and his being accused of being a Muslim. There were many others I could have mentioned but I felt were unnecessary and time-consuming to make my point. I chose to mention the incidents that had some direct connection to Just Right (i.e., Ann Coulter was a previous guest on the show; we had in fact once, and only once, discussed the issue of Obama’s birth certificate; we also had previously played an excerpt from the YouTube video mentioned.
All of these things are factual; they actually happened. Each report of each event has been archived along with direct references to the source. I could not possibly have made them up. But even so, AS FACTS, they mean nothing and can often be used to promote falsehoods just as much as truths.
If all our listeners wanted was the facts, then Just Right is the wrong show to be listening to.
Fact: Obama won the election. End of Fact. End of story.
Fact is, it’s what people think and say about the facts that ends up determining future facts. Fact is, philosophy (reality, reason, self, consent) is what drives the opinions behind the facts, which in turn will be the determinant of future facts. Fact is, that’s what Just Right is all about.
So there you have it: just the facts.
