The Irony! It Burns!

"A singularly remarkable event has taken place in the United States of America. This event occurred in Arizona on March 1st and was an earth shattering revelation.

A long awaited press conference was given by Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, a five time elected Sheriff, which should have made national and international headlines. Arpaio's credentials include serving in the United States Army from 1950 to 1953, service as a federal narcotics agent serving in countries all over the world with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA), and served as the head of the Arizona DEA. Without doubt, this is a serious Law Enforcement Officer, not one to be taken in by tin-foil-hat wearing loons.

....

On April 27, 2011, President Barack walked into the White House Press room with a Cheshire cat like grin and a "Long Form Birth Certificate" from the State of Hawaii in hand. From the podium in the press room, Mr. Obama said, "We're not going to be able to solve our problems if we get distracted by sideshows and carnival barkers,". Quite the barb from a man holding a forged document.

That's right, forged."

As an Arizona sheriff held a news conference claiming evidence that the birth certificate released in April is a fake, Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt (https://twitter.com/#%21/BenLaBolt) tweeted out what he called a "live feed" of the presentation -- which turned out to be a clip of the theme song from the old science fiction series The X Files (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdmtY0vux30).

LaBolt also told Twitter followers "birth certificate available here" -- and linked to an ad for an Obama coffee mug (http://store.barackobama.com/made-in-the-usa-mug.html) with the birth certificate emblazoned on it.
