Let's assume for the sake of discussion that it can be demonstrated that Obama's birth disqualifies him from serving as President.
What then?
Someone still has to take action. Does SCOTUS? Does Congress? Does a Democrat-controlled Congress initiate the impeachment process?
What if it can't be demonstrated that Vice President Joe Biden did anything wrong in connection with this? Does that mean that Obama is removed and Biden becomes President? (If Biden is removed as well, doesn't that make Pelosi President?)
Are Obama's actions - the bills he signed into law, the Executive Orders he issued - automatically invalidated, only to have Biden or Pelosi restore them?
Does anyone really believe that Obama is going to be removed, and that it will end up making a difference?
I just don't see it.
What I do see are actions that Congress and the President are taking that I find to be troubling, and I would like to see more resources directed at countering or mitigating those things - offering credible alternatives. Card check, Obamacare, bailouts, porkulous, cash for clunkers, cap & tax, shamnesty... the general expansion of federal government... these are things we can fight against and make a difference.
We need to make the most of our time.
