WASHINGTON – House Speaker John Boehner says Americans have a right to think what they want to think, even when they're wrong about President Barack Obama's citizenship and his religion.
Some people believe that Obama, a native of Hawaii, was actually born outside the U.S. or in some other way is not a natural-born citizen eligible to be president. There is also a persistent belief among some that Obama, a Christian, is actually a Muslim.
When the host of NBC's "Meet the Press" asked Boehner whether he, as speaker of the House, had a responsibility to "stand up to that kind of ignorance," Boehner told David Gregory: "It's not my job to tell the American people what to think. Our job in Washington is to listen to the American people."
Boehner continued: "Having said that, the state of Hawaii has said that he was born there. That's good enough for me. The president says he's a Christian. I accept him at his word." He later called those "the facts" of Obama's background.
Gregory asked, "But that kind of ignorance, about whether he's a Muslim, doesn't concern you?"
"The American people have the right to think what they want to think," Boehner replied. "I can't — it's not my job to tell them."
Boehner denied that he is willing to let those misperceptions remain because they weaken and delegitimize Obama.

Funny: I dont remember Chrisitians supporting abortion out of convenience and viewing children as a "punishment".

This is why he is a coward and lying puke. Tell me what faith actually supports abortion as a doctrine?

You should know by now I HATE ALL POLITICIANS no matter what country they are from, whether they are a citizen of the nation they preside over or not. But I will say with all of the "SECRET and UNDISCLOSED" information on him, it certainly makes a person look at him out of the corner of their eye....

Boehner also said that Obama was correct on his Egypt response too.
Anyone saying otherwise is just agreeing that the GOP speaker is full of shit too.

Yes, Boehner is FOS.
Obama probably just had his "mission accomplished" moment with this whole mess.

Did Boner cry when he delivered this message?

No. He just made all the GOP 2012 hopefuls cry because now another leg on their campaign platform has been kicked out. Kind of hard to argue a point of view against someone that your own party leader supports and advocates.

Reporting from Washington —
House Speaker John A. Boehner said Sunday he thought the Obama administration handled "a very difficult situation" in Egypt about as well as possible, undercutting potential Republican presidential candidates who have charged that President Obama botched the U.S. response to a popular revolt against a key ally.
Boehner's remarks contrasted with those of Republicans who are pondering presidential runs in 2012, several of whom stepped forward over the weekend to criticize Obama.

You really think a majority of voters is going to care what Boehner thinks on that topic? I would venture to say that less than 50% would even recognize his name or could name the position he holds.

Not really. I am playing to the sarcastic hypocrisy of his actions.

Its still fun picking that scab off though knowing that Obama and his lackeys can't provide any proof whatsoever than microfiche blurb in a old newspaper he is a NBC.
