Founder of Hot Air, Michelle Malkin, attempted to convince readers that Tea Partiers began their grass root movement prior to President Obama taking office. The irony is that it rightfully should have begun during the Bush tenure, as Hot Air falsely claims happened.
In an effort to attract viewers to purchase and view the upcoming “Tea Party ‘Documentary’” 
of how the tea party movement has flourished under Dick Army’s Freedom Works, Malkin has posted a few absurdities that do nothing but match the ridiculousness of the contorted views shared by a populace convinced that Obama is not a legal citizen.
Whether tea partiers like it or not, they have collectively taken in the other whacks (Birthers) who dispute the authenticity of Obama’s birth certificate, and both shutter at the thought of the video in which they swear Obama touted himself to be a Muslim.
Never enjoyed being the bearer of bad news; Birthers' and Tea Party members are one in the same. This I discovered when I had the misfortune of covering one of their events. That particular event had members lined up across the street from a post office (which was closed at the time) with tea bag stuffed envelopes penned to the White House ready to be delivered for mailing.
Many discussions have taken place over the airwaves to convince the naysayers that Obama is in fact a genuine, born in America citizen, yet neither words nor photos have phased the hyped up lies and self-delusions. Gee, even Sarah Palin recently admitted on a talk show that elected officials and others have a right to know the truth and have questions answered.
Along with assistance from a newly released report from Annenberg Political Fact Check, one more time, we will attempt lying to rest such doubts.

raised seal Frequently asked questions led investigators on a fact-finding mission. Truth emerged from some ill conceived statements.

Refer back to Annenberg Political Fact Check for a full description of this investigative work that answers these questions and more.
A quote by one of the investigators summed up nicely, how those with logical thinking skills view, well, those who defy logic.
It is possible that Obama conspired his way to the precipice of the world’s biggest job, involving a vast network of people and government agencies over decades of lies. Anything is possible. But step back and look at the overwhelming evidence to the contrary and your sense of what’s reasonable has to take over.Let us delve into “Obama is a Muslim.” This diatribe also has had recent light shed on it by Annenberg Political Fact Check.
This widely viewed video seems to show President Obama stating that he is a Muslim.
It is false, and the product of dishonest editing.
This and other YouTube videos have taken original quotes by the President and maliciously edited out complete sentences’ leaving the ill informed to digress into the wilds of imagination.
In today’s world of advanced technology, logic, once again must supersede fiction. Camera’s now have the ability to place a smile on a photos subject where none really exists. When one witnesses first-hand, how mind boggling for some modern technology can be it is not difficult to link such a stretch of reality.
From the aforementioned video, investigators took the video piece by piece, placing side by side the edited quotes and graphics with the full veracity of what Obama in reality said.
