3. Email the 4 Tennessee Stooges
Please join me and send the 4 Tennessee stooges a request for immediate proof that they are U.S. citizens. Ask them to post their birth certificates online immediately because rumor has it they are all from freaking Mars:

rep.stacey.campfield@capitol.tn.gov
rep.eric.swafford@capitol.tn.gov
rep.frank.niceley@capitol.tn.gov
rep.glen.casada@capitol.tn.gov

Thanks for the link!

6. Martians are fine people....
IF they were from the '4th rock' nothing would be lost- but now Pluto! I hear Pluto-ans are greedy stupid tapeworms who would kill their own babies rather then allow them to share a lollipop with another child, which is 'socialist' to their way of thinking! Also, people from Pluto are all gay (though there's nothing wrong with that, it certainly should be noted, for the record, and for clarity etc)

7. Point taken
You're right. I shouldn't have insulted Martians. I've begun to think that Tennessee is the new Mississippi.

4. why is this a question, 1st place?
Surely a lawmaker with years in Senate and reputation would have been vetted on such a basic legality as his birth, yet the reactionary rightwing still gets to exploit racist sentimentality and anti social greediness to raise issues that would embarass the Flat Earth Society fund raisers...
what a benighted culture we've evolved into
