Rep. Paul Broun (K-Ga.) said Thursday that he does not know if President Barack Obama is either a citizen or a Christian.

Broun made the claim during an interview with Sirius XM host Pete Dominick, which was first flagged by the liberal blog Think Progress.

Asked if he thought the president is an “American citizen and a Christian,” Broun first responded, “I’m not going to get involved in that.”

But pressed on whether he thought Obama is a citizen, he said “I don’t know.”

“Is he a Christian?” Dominick then asked.

“I don’t know that,” Broun responded, explaining that “I’m a Christian but only me and the Lord know that for sure.”

The Georgia congressman spent much of the rest of the interview attacking Obama as a “socialist.”

“I know he is,” a socialist, Broun said. “You look at his own writings. He said when he was in college he leaned to Marxist tendencies and is linked to Marxist professors. He joined Marxists clubs. And look at who he’s put in his administration, they’re devout socialists.”

“America has to stand up and decide if we want to be a socialist nation or if we’re going to be a free nation,” he said.

Broun spokeswoman Debbee Keller looked to clarify the Republican’s comments after they began to circulate, telling POLITICO: “Dr. Broun did not cast doubt on Obama's religious beliefs or citizenship. When someone else forced the question, he said it wasn't fair to speculate.”

How does someone this insane get elected to Congress? My guess is he's from rural Georgia.

I don't really see where the word insane would fit.  Maybe a racist since he does not agree with Barry, he must be a racist.  

What would fit is to use one of Barry's favorite things, to speak about opinion and state them as fact.  While it is my opinion Barry is in fact a socialist at heart, when you consider his ideas and policies, it is a fact he is a socialist.

I am sure he is referencing Kook.  Seems to be Libs best way to hide the failing policies of Obama is to call Repubs kooks so it gets people fired up and distracts attention from all the policies Barry is pushing that will be financially disastrous for the US if enacted.

Like the magician does- pay attention to my distraction over here so you don't see what is actually going on over here.

2nd theory could be the Klan since anyone who disagrees with Barry and the Dums is a racist.

After awhile I thought about it being the Kook party too.  
And since it was in GA, the KKK crossed my mind too.
But in Lib's defense, you could put a K in both the Dems and Repubs.  Both sides are rife with whack jobs.
But yet we keep electing them into office over and over .....

The Bush administration started off with a trillion-dollar surplus.
In 2002, the Bush administration overturned the Pay-Go provisions so they could start their six-year spree of unfunded spending.
The republican tax cuts for the upper class in 2001 and again in 2003 the MOTHER of all Deficits, then two wars without raising any taxes or even including the costs in the budget. Not to mention the deregulation and  laissez-faire style oversight that brought US to finical collape...Fiscal responsibility??
Barry as you called (President Obama) signed another Pay-Go bill earlier this year. every one of the Republicans voted against it...The just vote no strategy of the Republican party shows little fiscal sanity...Perhaps Kook Party is a better Moniker..
It would seem that Obama and the Democrats are pillar of fiscal responsibility; compared to the Republican Party and their plan for financial ruin...

Pay-go?  I like pay-go, it would be nice since they just passed it they would use it!

I don't want these huge entitlement programs that will crush us economically.  Health care reform in the current proposals is just that.

The dems are far from fiscally responsible, have you seen the deficeit under Barry?  That said, I want controlled spending and cuts, not new programs that they tax us even more to have paid for under pay-go!

Deficits incurred today can be attributed to the past administration's blunders..
We're bogged down in Afghanistan and Iraq in situations that will never stabilize and continue to drain resources..
As for National Healthcare we can no longer can operate under a  laissez-faire style government allowing the robber barons of the Insurance, healthcare, pharmaceutical, to reek-havoc without regulation oversight
As for our National debt we could just as well put Reagan's picture on the dollar bill, it will soon be worthless, maybe it would become collectors item, memorabilia of a once great nation before the Reagan Revolution...when interest rates rise we shall fall...

Yup, nothing Obama does matters because it is and always will be not his fault for anything he does.  His free pass is up and everyone knows it.

The Obama administration started off with a large debt and is trying to make Bush look like he had a balanced budget.  Bush was terrible and Obama is much much worse.

Health Care is not the fault of insurance companies it is us the people, how we live our lives and the health choices we make.  The Health reform does not address the problems only shifts who controls the problems and subsidizes some that can't afford it.  The only good thing coming from it is pre-ex conditions, the rest of it is garbage and does not address what is causing the problems.
