Jack Cashill, crackpot author, gets the library’s stamp of legitimacy

Jack Cashill has produced another book-length conspiracy theory. Kansas City’s crackpot-in-residence has concluded that Barack Obama did not write his memoirs. In fact, in Cashill’s mind, the man who became president was incapable of the task.

The word “capable” actually appears on the official website for Deconstructing Obama, Cashill’s latest right-wing flake-out. Cashill believes that Bill Ayers, white guy and all-purpose bogeyman, is the likeliest author of Dreams from My Father, which was published in 1995.
