So...are Trump and all the other Birther nutcases going to apologise to Obama and all the officials and other people that contended that there was a long-form birth certificate and that he was born where he claimed he was.
After all they were accused of lying and the least they should expect is an apology.
As for Trump gloating over this...whatever happened to his statement that he had investigators in Hawaii and "they can't believe what they're finding"?
What did they find?
He took over and perpetuated a sideshow that has been expensive and distracting to the country.
He should at least be embarrassed and he should apologise.
It could be argued that Obama has taken the higher ground.
He would have known that it would have been better, tactically, to hold the certificate back until closer to the election.
He would have known that it would open him up to accusations of caving into the nutcases.
But maybe, he saw the damage that the whole stupid issue was doing to the country and how distracting it was from the real issues.
Maybe he decided he would take the personal hit for the greater good...hmmmm?
