However, Think Progress' most egregious smear appears in the last paragraph of the article. "Despite his outlandish views, Jones' influence can not be underestimated. Richard Poplawski, the young man who gunned down three Pittsburgh police officers earlier this year after professing a fear that the government would confiscate his guns, was a die-hard fan of Jones. Jones, who rants daily about Obama's intentions to revoke the 2nd amendment, is also one of the loudest voices for the "birther movement."

Rep Doggett met with constituents outside a grocery store in south Austin regarding the health care bill.

A long brewing conspiracy theory has it that Barack Obama entered this world as a subject of the British crown in East Africa because his father was Kenyan. A Hawaii birth certificate and birth notices in the Honolulu press went some way to dampen down the feverish speculation when it first emerged during Obama's election campaign, driven by a handful of rightwingers who helped scupper John Kerry's bid for president.

Let me set down a couple of fervent beliefs that animate everything I do and everything I say. I believe that God created heaven and earth and every single individual on the planet. I believe that the God who gave us life gave us liberty and that freedom is our birthright. I believe that the States created the federal government and not the other way around. And that the power that the States gave to the Federal Government - they can take back.

They understand socialism. They understand tyrants. But none of us have ever had it here. We don't even know what it looks like. Part of what we're trying to do in "Saving Freedom" is just show that where we are, we're about where Germany was before World War II where they became a social democracy. You still had votes but the votes were just power grabs like you see in Iran, and other places in South America, like Chavez is running down in Venezuela. People become more dependent on the government so that they're easy to manipulate. And they keep voting for more government because that's where their security is. When our immigrants get here, they're worried, because they see it happening here.
