April 30, 2012 5:53 PM The Conspiracy Widens

By Ed Kilgore

The ravings published by Birther Central, World Net Daily, would not normally be worth even noting, but its craziness may have now reached a level of posing a public mental health emergency. Check out this lede from a “story” for WND by Joe Kovacs:

Medical examiners in Los Angeles are investigating the possible poisoning death of one of their own officials who may have worked on the case of Andrew Breitbart, the conservative firebrand who died March 1, the same day Sheriff Joe Arpaio announced probable cause for forgery in President Obama’s birth certificate.

Whoa! What does Breitbart’s death have to do with Arpaio? Oh, that’s easy:

The night before Breitbart died, WND senior staff reporter Jerome Corsi arranged for Breitbart to interview Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio, who the very next day held a news conference to announce there was probable cause to believe President Obama’s birth certificate released on April 27, 2011, was a forgery, as well as Obama’s Selective Service Card.

So the idea here is that the someone in or associated with the medical examiner’s office murdered a medical examiner who either covered up or was in a position to reveal the murder of Breitbart to keep him from alerting the world to Arpaio’s revelation of Obama’s “forged” birth certificate. The allegedly murdered medical examiner, BTW, “may” have been involved in the examination of Breitbart’s body, or may not have, but with so many conspiracies underway, why wait for confirmation?

I dunno. I think the logical chain of suspicion here may well lead to the conclusion that Barack Obama leaked damaging information about his past radical connections to Andew Breitbart to distract him from the crucial birth certificate issue. The plot could have been hatched even back when Obama was consorting with radical racialists at Harvard and the ghost of Saul Alinsky in Chicago in order to make himself appear to be an American communist instead of a foreign-born jihadist Muslim, throwing even the intrepid Breitbart off the scent, at least until the fateful interview he planned with Arpaio. Either way, Obama has a lot of blood on his hands, which patriots must avenge.

    Its very clear that someone at The Onion has hijacked the WND website.
    Either that, or WND and Corsi have decided to murder parody, once and for all. RIP

    You poor deluded man. Wouldn't it be nice if it were that simple? I'm afraid you, like so many other sheeple, are just incapable of seeing how deep this REALLY goes.

    This is nowhere near as interesting as Clinton's clandestine cocaine airfields in Arkansas.

  • Mark-NC on April 30, 2012 6:07 PM:

    I think Elvis did it.

    I'm sure we'll soon learn of the link to Vince Foster.

    (Meanwhile, I personally believe Jimmy Hoffa was involved in the killing. Probably with the support of Judge Crater. And little green men from a galaxy far, far away.)

    It was the Clinton's!

    Bill and Hillary are more experienced at covert killing's than a SEAL team.
    More clever than James Bond.
    And better at body disposal than the Mob!
    Look at what they did to poor Vince Foster!

    What?
    His bodies still around?
    Heh-heh-heh... Check tomorrow...

    K in VA,
    I swear I didn't copy your idea!

    It's just that great minds sometimes think alike - but how that explains MY having a thought along similar lines as yours, is kind of like the the explanation that an infinite number of monkey's with keyboards will eventually type "Hamlet :-)

    This isn't funny. Recall an Army veteran, who bought into what today would be considered mild conspiracy theories, parked a truck bomb outside the federal building in Oklahoma City in 1995.

    The kooks have only gotten kookier in the last 17 years, and a helluva lot better armed.

    A very good point. Sadly.

    By the way, "Dr." Jerome Corsi's Ph.D. really does stand for "Piled Higher and Deeper."

    Is Boehner not Bat Boy grown and tanned?

    I found Mr. Kilgore's final paragraph to be very amusing. Unfortunately, There are a few people I know who would be sitting around, nodding in solemn agreement!
    What a waste...

  • Jon on April 30, 2012 11:03 PM:

    Arpaio and Breitbart and Corsi, oh my!

  • Skip on April 30, 2012 11:24 PM:

    "the murder of Breitbart to keep him from alerting the world to Arpaio’s revelation of Obama’s “forged” birth certificate...?"

    A secret that only Orly Taitz and her thousands of STILL loyal head-nodders know for sure? And have been screaming about for years without being "silenced"?

    Where does Majestic-12 and the "Greys" figure in?
    Oh, I know you'd say Area-51... But that's WHAT THEY WAN'T YOU THINK! No, it's much more sinister than that. Obama is actually a Mi-Go!
    Call in DELTA GREEN!
    Wait!
    It's worse than even that...
    All the Republicans are SHOGGOTHS IN DISGUISE, like Dr. Shiny! AHHHHHHH!!! Send hel---"#¤¤¤%%
