It’s been nearly three years since President Obama took office, and yet doubt apparently remains over his eligibility to be president. On his radio show, Sean Hannity stood up for the “crucified and beat up and smeared and besmirched” birther groups with guests Joseph Farah of WorldNetDaily and Hamas attorney Stanley Cohen suggesting that, if Chester A. Arthur had to prove he wasn’t Canadian, why shouldn’t Obama have to do the same?

Last week World Net Daily made headlines after it announced it was dropping Ann Coulter at the keynote speaker as their “Taking Back America” conference following news that she would be headlining GOProud’s Homocon 2010. The latest development is that Farah has taken to radio shows hosted by gay personalities to further skewer Coulter.

World Net Daily editor Joseph Farah made a public point to take Ann Coulter off the list of speakers at an upcoming event for her participation in Homocon this year.

Coulter fired back, calling Farah “swine” and a “publicity whore.” Last night on Fox News’ Red Eye, she took it a step further, referring to WND as “fake Christians.”

Conservative website World Net Daily has scored another meta-exclusive, announcing that World Net Daily has “dumped” lightning rod Ann Coulter over a “Homoconflict.” CEO Joseph Farah told his own website that it would be dropping Coulter as keynote speaker at its “Taking Back America” conference because she has agreed to headline GOProud‘s Homocon 2010.

A Saturday afternoon Fox News report revealed much about the situation on the ground at the Tea Party Convention this weekend in the lead up to Sarah Palin‘s keynote address. The Fox reporter, though, was careful to note that this convention is by no means representative of the entire movement, focusing on the issue of the Birthers, who believe President Obama is not a natural born citizen and are a cause for concern among conservatives wishing to focus more on substantive (factual?) issues.

Forget the Tablet and metered paywalls, here is an entirely new way to save journalism (or some faction thereof). Perhaps you are familiar with WorldNetDaily.com the “must-read website for anyone who hates Barack Obama.” According to the LA Times, the site is on track to pull in $10 million annually. Curious how they did it? One word: Birthers.
