Crazy Right-Wing Idea of the Day

Every time you think Republican teabaggers can't get any more creatively insane, they come up with some new angle that just surprises the hell out of you. To wit: the Iowa Republican Party has a new scheme, aimed at stripping President Obama of his citizenship, that really puts the birthers to shame.

This dealio is actually a two step process, the first of which involves repealing the 13th Amendment (yeah, the one that got rid of slavery) so that it can be replaced by the "original 13th Amendment," which failed to pass in 1810 but stipulated that “if any citizen of the United States shall accept, claim, receive or retain any title of nobility or honor from a foreign power, such person shall cease to be a citizen...”

Once the "thirteenthers" get this portion of the Constitution corrected, they aim to strip the President of his citizenship because...{wait for it}...he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize last year. [Or so the "thinking" goes, apparently.] We are not making this up.
