There is nothing in that radio broadcast that is new or that hasn&#039;t been discredited.  If you&#039;d like to discuss any aspect individually here feel free to select a topic of your choosing which you feel is relevant to the Obama POTUS eligibility question.</description>

		<description>cane You got to be kidding. Not the vast right wing conspirance. You gotta stay out of the koolaid. If there was a shred of evedence to your proposterous claims, Oberman and Matthews would still be running spots on it. At some point in time one has to take responcibility for their  actions.</description>

		<description>@1superdave: I got to know PUMAs by coincidence some time ago. 

The original aim of “the movement” had nothing to do with supporting Hillary. At least a part of its leaders has already being debunked as imposters and liars. 

It was a neo-con plot aimed to split Dem base - that failed desperately. Palin was meant to be Hillary’s instant proxy, but c’mon… they have nothing in common except gender. 

A large part of neo-con activist - posing as enraged Hillary democrats, but acting like ultra cons - already left that nuthouse, while the rest (like Darragh Murphy) want to milk some more donations and admiration from those few remaining delusional devotees.</description>

		<description>Precisely, superdave.  It really boils down to the benevolence we have for the democratic process of election except when the process doesn&#039;t produce the desired result.  History is littered with examples in which one group of people promoted the democratic process of election, but then cried foul when the end product was denied by the same group because their expected end product was not produced.

What&#039;s interesting, particularly within the PUMA circle, is that the level of disaffection has created this viral contagion that has run totally out of control to the point where they have to subsist on unsubstantiated rumors, fear mongering, and sweeping conspiracy theories.  They rattle their sabres against Obama as a sort of prophetic con-man, but they themselves are beholden to these platonic mantras.  You can&#039;t remain non-hypocritical when you admonish one side for being &quot;brainwashed&quot; when your entire platform centers around repeated platitudes.  If you say it enough times, it really does start to take on a sort of twisted truth.

I can respect and listen to anyone who might bring up a valid point, and the PUMA&#039;s have had several from time to time.  But the steadfast refuse to allow for an open discussion on their own blogs to really explore what the truth might be, and when one of their claims is debunked(like the Obama fake birth certificate), they begrudgingly admit their error, yet persist in clinging to the claim by raising their demands(by finding some amateur interpretation of Article II of the US Constitution and the meaning of &quot;Allegiance&quot; to proof that Obama is not POTUS eligible).  I give them points for their fervor, but points off for their lack of civility.</description>

		<description>This is a very interesting post. It&#039;s almost comical to see liberals go after each other. In all fairness these people are disaffected democrats after all. After being bitter and protesting George Bush for eight years, what would they find to do with themselves for the next four years. It&#039;s kinda like a dog chasing cars, with no real idea about what to do with it, the car , if they caught it. What&#039;s to happen when wide spread  buyers remorse set in.</description>

		<description>[...] PUMA Radio Program On KPFT Goes Awry  KPFT in Houston recently broadcast a one hour radio program hosted by “Jennifer”, a self proclaimed PUMA.  “Jennifer’s” special guest was none other then PUMA founder Darragh Murphy.  Ironically, the bulk of the show’s callers where not PUMA supporters, but rather callers who disagreed with “Jennifer” and Murphy.  And time after time, every caller who aired any disagreement were summarily dismissed or, worse, quickly interrupted.
