Kobach--a birther?

GOP Secretary of Statel candidate Kris Kolbach told a not very funny joke the other day at a party event in Tonganoxie. According to the Lawrence World

Kobach asked what Obama and God had in common. He said neither had a birth certificate.

Kobach tried to talk his way out of this mess, by saying he was just joking.

Well, that means Kolbach was pandering to the worst sort of ignorance and prejudice in the GOP ranks.

The conservative talk show host Michael Medved has referred to the birthers as "crazy, nutburger, demagogue, money-hungry, exploitative, irresponsible, filthy conservative imposters" who are "the worst enemy of the conservative movement."
