The eternal wackiness of (some) Georgia politicians
Researchers at Cornell University have succeeded in creating what they call “temporal cloaking.” In effect, they can create a tiny moment of time in which whatever happens can never be detected by outside observers.
At the moment, that “temporal cloaking” lasts just 50 trillionths of a second, which is too bad. We could have used it this week to save Georgia some national embarrassment.
On Wednesday, state Rep. Judy Manning, a Republican from Cobb County and a Newt Gingrich supporter, made news with an attack on Mitt Romney’s religion, suggesting that it disqualified him from office.
“I think Mitt Romney is a nice man, but I’m afraid of his Mormon faith,” she told the Marietta Daily Journal. “It’s better than a Muslim. Of course, every time you look at the TV these days you find an ad on there telling us how normal they are. So why do they have to put ads on the TV just to convince us that they’re normal if they are normal?”
So … “normal” good, Mormon bad, Muslim worse? You better memorize that, because we have to keep such things straight if we hope to protect the Constitution and American freedom.
Meanwhile, another Republican state representative, Mark Hatfield of Waycross, is representing two Georgia men in a lawsuit alleging that Barack Obama is not a natural born citizen and thus cannot appear on the Georgia ballot for president. (Hatfield himself had sponsored legislation last year requiring candidates to submit their “long-form” birth certificate to prove their eligibility, but the bill failed.)
Two similar suits have also been filed, including one by the infamous Orly Taitz. Her filing alleges that Obama’s Hawaii birth certificate is a forgery, as is Obama’s Social Security number. The other two suits accept the birth certificate but claim that Obama is nonetheless not a natural-born citizen because his father was a non-citizen.
Earlier this week, a Georgia administrative law judge refused to dismiss the three suits and instead set a hearing for Jan. 26. However, while that decision immediately set the rightwing fringe all a-flutter, it’s absolutely meaningless and will have no impact except to extend the embarrassment.
Under Georgia election law, any registered voter has the right to challenge a candidate’s eligibility. The ruling by the administrative law judge does nothing more than recognize the existence of that right, and is silent on whether the plaintiffs have any legitimate grounds for complaint.
Which of course they don’t, because Barack Obama is a legitimate, natural-born president just as Mitt Romney’s religion is of no consequence to anyone except himself and his God.
Oh, and one more thing: If science really wanted to contribute to making our lives better, it would come up with a system of stupidity cloaking rather than temporal cloaking. The market potential is enormous.
UPDATE: Rep. Manning has “apologized,” to a degree, if by apologize you mean blame someone else. Here’s her statement:
In an attempt to compare Romney and Obama, a seasoned reporter manipulated my comparison using verbal judo and made my choice for a Republican Presidential candidate appear to be motivated by religion.
NOT SO! I am supporting Newt Gingrich because he is the smartest, most qualified man for the job. I believe he is the only candidate that can turn this economy around. In the 2012 elections, I believe constituents should focus on the crucial issues plaguing our nation; Foreign Policy, Healthcare, the Economy and Education.While I believe Newt Gingrich is the best choice for President, I can assure you, I will be supporting whomever wins the support of Republican America on the ballot in 2012.
Elizabeth Kubler Ross said, “I believe that we are solely responsible for our choices, and we have to accept the consequences of every deed, word, and thought throughout our lifetime.” These are words to live by. I sincerely apologize to Mitt Romney and for offending people of Mormon faith.”

Well, you can call it wacky because you work for the AJC. But me, I’ll be forever thankful to be saved from being chased down and having a chip put in my brain. Other states don’t have that protection. You ought to be on your knees giving thanks to God before you leave in the a.m. that you can go out for the day and return with a head as empty as it was when you left.
Anyhow, that Cobb County woman never missed the mark by much. This Mormon stuff is a made-up religion. It don’t say nothing in my Bible about Jesus Christ showing up in North America or about a angel named Mormon. I think what happened is, this Joseph Smith was out painting the town and needed a good excuse when he come home real late so he made up the whole story about golden tablets and all that junk. And the more his wife give him the evil eye, the more he went spinning the story. You know how women are. Make one little mistake and your wife will remind you of it for the rest of your natural life.
And this Obama birth certificate is as phony as a 3-dollar bill. You know it and I know it. I just never imagined that somebody would go to the trouble of making up a birth announcement and then putting it in a old newspaper. That’s taking things a little too far.
Anyhow, it’s getting close to time to knock off work and head home to Fox News and a good supper of pinto beans, chopped onions, and biscuits, with fried potatoes. Yum, yum. Have a good night everybody.

As Georgians, such as Rep. Mark Hatfield, continue to play out the “birther” ideas – long after those ideas have been proven false – they reinforce how terribly biased many Georgians remain, years after the Civil Rights era.
And, the remarks by Rep. Judy Manning that she is “afraid of (Romney’s) Mormon faith,” but that “It’s better than a Muslim,” are so narrow in spiritual vision, and human vision for that matter, as to be simply sad.
From my post on this blog yesterday:
“We need to open our hearts to more compassion and open our minds to experience the natural evolution of ideas. When we are afraid of changing and evolving, we often tighten our hold on ‘what is’ – even when that is more limited than what ‘can be,’ which is often more expansive and inclusive. When we are afraid to grow, both as individuals and as a nation, we often tighten our hold on what we know and what is ‘ours’. . .”
These two sad examples, from Rep. Hatfield and Rep. Manning, make my points perfectly. How does one ever expand consciousness when fear of change is so prevalent in Georgia?

Bookman,
I am sure that in the 130 or so years that Democrats held sway in this great state of Georgia, there were more than a few gaffs which they might of wished to take back, especially about minorities and civil rights. To cherry pick this lady’s comments while ignoring this rich Democratic history shows just how biased you are and how inconsequential this lady’s comments were. I am sure that if Romney is successful at winning the nomination, there will be more than a few Romney rants that we will have to endure which will have more than their share of bias and liberal opinion. As a comparison, they will make our Republican representative’s comments mild indeed.

I’m unsettled with Gov. Romney’s membership in what I think is a cult. Me and millions of others can look past that knowing that there’s a disaster in the White House whose claim to Christianity is highly questionable. Still, Gov. Romney or anyone else would be better than what is sitting in that Oval Office at this moment.
It’s worth it for the honorable state Rep. Hatfield to investigate the legality of Hussein Obama’s appearance on the Georgia ballot. Why did ‘Lil Hussein wait so long to show the longform? Why DID it take Mr. Trump to get the Hussein Obama team to produce that fake document? I also glad that Ms. Taitz is telling the truth about how this installed-president was able to get a generate Social Insecurity number.
I’m thrilled that there are good folk out there who aren’t afraid to stare down the libtard media and the inside-the-Beltway intellectuals. Onward Christian soldiers!

That is hardly an apolopgy by Rep. Manning. She apologizes if she offended the Mormons. But it doesn’t change her thought process (or lack thereof). And she didn’t bother apologizing to Muslims. Guess that is because they are the worst and not worthy of an apology. The current slew of Georgia politicians ARE AN ABSOLUTE EMBARASSMENT, and it is shameful that the people of Georgia can still support and vote for these imbeciles.

Your analogy is poor, at best. There is no need for a law requiring people to own SUVs or guns. Your not owning either is no skin off my nose…or anyone elses. Your owning one increases the chances that my job security remains intact but that’s only good for medical personnel. Your not having health insurance, however, affects my pocketbook. If you can’t pay for your medical care in some fashion or another, my medical costs increase in order to pay for the services that go unreimbursed. And on a different level, the human one, while you obviously don’t give a $%#! whether the less fortunate can get the medical care they need, most of us do.

I am just waiting for the Romney rants. They will be many and vicious and there will be more than one reference made to Romney’s religion by one or more of your “well meaning” liberal clan. Count on it.

“did you guys know that terrible Fox News Channel is drawing more viewers than CNN and MSNBC combined.”
Since when does popularity equate to quality?

Jay. Q for Ron Paul
WSJ has an article on his investment holdings. 64% gold and silver mining stocks.
And he wants to go back to the gold standard.
Screaming conflict of interest…..

jewcowboy – quality has nothing to do with it. Otherwise, McCain would have won.

I often wonder why people even think about coming on this blog when all they do is cut down the host, whine about what he does or doesnt write about , and can even predict what other posters are going to say about a canidates’ religion.

“Maher, after the Boncos lost 40-14 to the Buffalo Bills Saturday, tweeted, “Wow, Jesus just f***ed #TimTebow bad! And on Xmas Eve! Somewhere in hell Satan is tebowing, saying to Hitler “Hey, Buffalo’s killing them.”
