Fated to be the white man's salvation

Once again, Pat Boone has shown himself to be at the cutting edge of the culture.

It could be that you know him best for this, when he demonstrated that rock 'n' roll maybe isn't quite as universal as you thought:

So what can he do to top himself?

You had to ask, right?

Former singing star and now Republican activist Pat Boone has repeated his assertions that President Barack Obama was born in Kenya and therefore illegible to be in the White House.

In an appearance at a Republican convention in Los Angeles, Boone, a member of the Beverly Hills Tea Party, told reporters: “I was in Kenya a year and a half ago and everybody said, ‘You know, he [Obama] was born here.”

He added: “Why else would he be hiding all his records? He is spending millions of dollars so we do not have his records. And experts have already looked at and been able to verify that this long form document is a fraud. But the media ignores it; a total fraud. A photoshopped fraud.”

I'll leave it up to you which of these makes him a bigger clown.
