Please don’t bother quoting Boehner—I care even less what he says than I do about what Obama says.
Obama’s own publicist, again, said for 16 years that Obama was born in Kenya. Other authors represented by the same publicist testified that they provided their own biographical details to the publicist, at the publicist’s insistence. The simple inference is that Obama himself claimed to be born in Kenya for sixteen years.
Like you, I would love an investigation. I would not hold my breath waiting for the useless, waste of skin Mr. Boehner et al. to get around to it. However, for posterity’s sake, the truth needs to be determined.
It doesn’t really matter what you or I think of Boehner, its what influence he has over congressional committees and possible investigations/hearings that matter. That’s the relevance of his statement.
There were ZERO objections to the certification of Obama’s electors in 2008 and in 2012 which means that no member of Congress was willing to stand up and take this issue on.
If Congressman Duncan thinks that this issue should be [re]visited, he is a sub-committee chairman of a relevant committee, HE could convene hearings beginning in his sub-committee.
