Get A Life: Really people? This is what you consider news?

Is it just me or do people need hobbies other than shooting down President Obama (which is what he is supposed to be called FoxNews). I have never heard such ridiculous, frivolous, just down right stupid "ish" from the media since they announced Palin was McCain's running-mate. The latest waste of good airtime was on Lou Dobbs today where he and Congressman Ted Poe wanted to know why the president hasn't come forth with his original birth certificate and were serious about this being a relevant topic. Roland Martin a CNN contributing reporter was also apart of this debate and was insulted that this was even considered news, and personally I agree with his opinion. Something as irrelevant as a birth certificate this far down in his first year as president is just plain stupid and petty. I watched as Roland Martin said the exact things that I was thinking; 1: He presented a LEGAL document from the state of Hawaii that shows that he was born there 2: He has made all the way through the campaign trail and won and 3: Why doesnt this even phase anyone? Dobbs and Poe were insisting that its not a big deal but still wanted to know why he hasn't given them what they wanted. Thats a big contradictions to say on national television to say "oh we dont care but really but its a life or death situation that you do this for us." there are plenty of other life altering issues that you could complain about like the ever dying economy, or the bullshit healthcare system, or better yet "(Jon and Kate+ 8)+ 1". If the electoral board was able to execpt all the paperwork he presented to them back before he started his campaign to run for the presidency then why can't the rest of America follow suit? I don't remember anyone asking for President Bush's birth certificate to be made public (even though I would have rather seen an IQ test for him). What is the real problem people? Is this really the issue?...Or have you not accepted that your president is BLACK?!?! But in all seriousness, Congressman Ted Poe, I know you have better things to do other than bitch and moan about a birth certificate when the man has obviously satisfied the requirements of the electoral board and the billions of American citizens, which by the way should be your main concern, have given him the stamp of approval that has allowed him to become President of these United States of America. For Lou Dobbs, please don't bore your viewers with such idiocy anymore its insult to journalism everywhere...get it together people or better yet, get a life.
