Obama cracks birther joke

Two days after President George W. Bush's library opened in Dallas, Obama joked about the location of where his future spot would be built.

"I'm also hard at work on plans for the Obama library," he said. "Some have suggested that we put it in my birthplace but I'd rather keep it in the United States."

spot? I think it was PBO's first presidential vacation and Cokie saw fit to interject that bit of Solomonic wisdom in her commentary on a weekend show...

The next line was something like, "who didn't see that joke coming? Just Gallup? And Dick Morris?"
