CO-GOV: Dems unearth Beauprez ‘birther’ comments from 2010

NOTE: Bob Beauprez is considered the RGA's "prohibitive favorite" in the Colorado gubernatorial primary.

In June 2010, Beauprez appeared as a guest on The Talk to Solomon Show, and was asked about whether President Obama was born in America by the host, Stan Solomon, a favorite of fringe conservatives who is an anti-gay birther who said last year that Trayvon Martin “deserves to be dead.”

“On the birth certificate, I don’t know,” Beauprez said, responding to Solomon’s claim that there “is no birth certificate.”
“I’ve heard both sides of it. I find it absolutely astounding that, if he has one, if this is all just a myth, why in the world not put it to bed? There’s a reason why they haven’t at least settled that controversy.”

(...)

“I address it another way: if this guy is an American citizen, he’s a different kind of an American than virtually any that I know,” Beauprez said.

Some evil person who has had it up to his/her neck with whiffle-ball mainstream Democratic questions should ask Beauprez about Tea Party Fav Ted Cruz's citizenship, then tear him apart for any inconsistencies.

Of course that would mean that someone would have to be a (gasp!) meanie!

Xxxxx

FYI folks, Ted Cruz was born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada and his papa was a foreign citizen at the time of Ted Cruz's birth.

Any party activists or lame-stream corporate media news critters out there with the courage of a bunny-wabbit to ask the question?

I've heard it a lot from the ones I've spoken with out here... Not a real surprise as neither group seems to have much of a handle on reality regarding any other topic either.
