Why do people believe flat out ludicrous things about Obama?
So I never like to get involved in internet politics (mainly because it gets no one anywhere most of the time) but I was just wondering what some people think. What I am talking about is that I was watching fox news (yes I admit that was my 1st mistake) and they were talking about how "Obama gave money to the Islamic brotherhood" and I was thinking about that and then the "he wasn't born in america" bullshit as well. And I am not even gonna talk about how wrong those two statements were, but I was wondering what you people think about that.
And I know that he has made bad moves as president and i'm, not happy with all his decisions but I was just wondering about those things because they are just flat out wrong.
But I do believe that he has done the right moves all in all just putting that out there.
Ok I promised myself I wasn't gonna say anything to people but this just pissed me off. So to 'Steel Rain" what do you call the aid that we have given to Egypt for the past 30 years (e.g the weapons). I bet you conveniently forget that they are our second highest recipient of our foreign aid (next to Israel) is Egypt? And yes the Islamic brotherhood is the controlling political faction (their candidate is the president now). But did he give it to them? No, he gave it to the country which is what we have done for the past 30 years, no matter who the president was or what we thought about them. And so you want us to not give aid to them just because we don't like their president? Yeah cus that wont make them hate us at all.

99% of the Republicans believe he was born in America, and they think its crazy to think otherwise. The Democrats just spread it around to make the Right look crazy. And the statement about Obama giving money to the Muslim brotherhood is referring to the Egyptian president and their government because they ARE the Muslim brotherhood, which Obama just sent a few fighter jets and other military weapons to. And not only does the Muslim Brotherhood hate America and Americans, they hate many of our allies and want to destroy our nations. This is what they were referring to.

The people that believe it are incredibly stupid. The people that propagate it are political dirtbags with an agenda. Obviously, there's some fool out there to believe any random lie
