Byron York posted this smug piece about how birthers should read nationality law concerning Obama’s citizenship.

Seth Mandel at Commentary Magazine has a rather thorough piece on how Obama has been inserted into the historical biographies of other presidents: Many of President Obama’s fervent devotees are young enough not to have much memory of the political world before the arrival of The One.

NYT and Media Bias Part Eleventy Billion
Posted: April 25, 2012 by ShortTimer in Barack Obama, Democrats, Leftists, MediaVia HotAir: Last Sunday the New York Times Public Editor, Arthur Brisbane, publicly chastised his paper for not providing adequate scrutiny of President Obama’s record, admitting that they had perhaps “basked a bit in the warm glow” of Obama’s election.
