In December of 2010, former Astro Luke Scott vented some questionable thoughts about President Obama. The President of the United States was a fraud, or so Luke Scott thought. He graced the 2010 Winter Meetings with his presence and interviewed with David Brown at Yahoo! Big League Stew. Besides talking about his love for hunting and his Scottish heritage, he said the following head-scratching quote:
↵↵↵[Obama] was not born here...That's my belief. I was born here. If someone accuses me of not being born here, I can go - within 10 minutes - to my filing cabinet and I can pick up my real birth certificate and I can go, 'See? Look! Here it is. Here it is.'
↵
But it's pretty hard to argue a fact. So President Obama shot down such persistent rumors as the White House finally released a copy of his birth certificate.
↵So take a lookie here, Mr. Scott. Now you can focus on not hitting .240 for the Orioles. Wait. what's that? Obama's middle name is "Hussein"?
