I'm beginning to think that the term "birther" is far too silly and easily dismissed. This is turning into some deep ugliness, and letting them hide behind a quirky conspiracy theory name isn't helping. Maybe we should all just start calling them crypto-racists instead.

and what would qualify as "unbirthers"? seriously, i suspect that the right approach is to refute them without engaging them, if such a thing is possible, as outright ridicule can be trivially dismissed. i hope that it is feasible to discredit them without stooping to their level.
