Sarah Palin: Stupid Conspiracies

On her Facebook Notes page, Sarah Palin addresses criticism of her answer to a question from talk show host Rusty Humphries on the matter of President Obama's birth certificate:

Stupid Conspiracies

Voters have every right to ask candidates for information if they so choose. I’ve pointed out that it was seemingly fair game during the 2008 election for many on the left to badger my doctor and lawyer for proof that Trig is in fact my child. Conspiracy-minded reporters and voters had a right to ask... which they have repeatedly. But at no point – not during the campaign, and not during recent interviews – have I asked the president to produce his birth certificate or suggested that he was not born in the United States.
