It is nice to see someone admit they were wrong.

Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett has backed off of his threat to keep President Barack Obama off of the state’s ballot in November and apologized for embarrassing the state with his questions about the president’s citizenship, according to Talking Points Memo. Bennett and his office have come under heavy fire in recent days for resurrecting the “birther” flap, the belief by some that President Obama was born somewhere other than in Hawaii, a conjecture that has been repeatedly debunked.

Now if the whacks on 285b would do the same.

I wonder where Obama was born?- No one seems to know exactly.

Actually, we DO know ---EXACTLY.

Only the Birther Morons... (Hence known as "BM"s)...don't seem to get it.

In Arizona -- not quite a swing state, but one that national Democrats are nonetheless keeping an eye on -- Secretary of State Ken Bennett said last week that he may refuse to put the president on the ballot in November unless the state of Hawaii authenticates Obama's birth certificate.
Bennett, a co-chairman of Romney's Arizona campaign, said he was only doing so at the request of his constituents.
On Wednesday, Bennett said that he had received the necessary verification from Hawaiian officials. "They have complied with the request and I consider the matter closed."

Apparently the response from citizens of Arizona was so overwhelming, (suggesting that he was f'ing CRAZY to keep pursuing the birther nonsense), that he decided to drop it before he made a bigger fool of himself. (Besides, who needs to make a bigger fool of themselves in Arizona when you have Joe Arpaio....)

There there's this putz:

http://www.9news.com/news/article/26905 ... n-comments

When 9NEWS was unable to schedule an interview with Coffman, Reporter Kyle Clark approached him in public.

Their conversation, in its entirety, was as follows:

KYLE CLARK: Congressman Coffman, how are you?

REP. COFFMAN: How are you doing? Good to see you.

KYLE CLARK: Good to see you. You're a tough man to find lately.

REP. COFFMAN: I am.

KYLE CLARK: Can we chat quickly before you go inside?

REP. COFFMAN: Sure.

KYLE CLARK: Alright, fantastic. Why don't we head right over here so we're out of the way. Thank you for your time. I apologize for showing up unannounced. I've been trying to call your staff. They won't return my phone calls. Let me ask you, after your comments about the President, do you feel voters are owed a better explanation than just, I misspoke?

REP. COFFMAN: I think that... Umm... I stand by my statement that I misspoke and I apologize.

KYLE CLARK: OK. And who were you apologizing to?

REP. COFFMAN: You know, I stand by my statement that I misspoke and I apologize.

KYLE CLARK: I apologize, we talk to you all the time, you're a very forthcoming guy. Who's telling you not to talk and to handle it like this?

REP. COFFMAN: I stand by my statement, that I wrote, that you have, and I misspoke and I apologize.

KYLE CLARK: Was it that you thought it would go over well in Elbert County where folks are very conservative and you'd never say something like that in the suburbs?

REP. COFFMAN: I stand by my statement that I misspoke and I apologize.

KYLE CLARK: Is there anything I can ask you that you'll answer differently?

REP. COFFMAN: You know, I stand by my statement that I misspoke and I apologize.

KYLE CLARK: Thank you, congressman.

REP. COFFMAN: Thank you.
