So, if the objection is made at the first mention of any vote or votes for B.O. the process must stop right there. Technically the overseer of the vote is the current Vice-President and that is Vice-President Dick Cheney. Where President Bush might waver at such a decision I can envision Dick Cheney with a mental smile in the back of his thoughts while he orders the proceedings to a halt until the shall have been finally disposed of requirement has been met. Based upon the nature of the objection to the vote there is only one way to “finally dispose of” the objection. Produce his REAL birth certificate, the one the Hawaiian “officials” have clearly stated is in a vault somewhere in the State of Hawaii.

Nope. Read the statute again-- it is "finally disposed of" by a vote of the two houses of Congress. If both do not vote to reject the electoral votes, they "shall be counted."

And what will they be basing the voting on? The objection is that he does not meet the criteria stated in the Constitution. They can either vote to require production of the B.C. or proceed without addressing the objection. If they proceed without requiring the original B.C. to be produced for all of the House, Senate and the Vice-President to examine, the Vice-President could refuse to certify the vote count. He has the final call.
