When contacted by their constituents who were concerned that BO was not a NBC, several Congresspeople, responding in strikingly similar language as if they had conferred in advance, dismissed these concerns. http://jbjd.wordpress.com/2009/08/13/if-drowning-out-opposing-facts-is-un-american-then-ignoring-unpleasant-facts-must-be-un-american-too/ I cannot say whether they were ill informed or just motivated by other interests.

Let’s not forget that there were 219 REPUBLICANS sitting there at the Joint Session of Congress held to count and certify the votes of the Electoral College. All it would have taken is any TWO (one Representative and one Senator) of those Republicans to object to the certification of Obama’s Electoral Votes due to his alleged ineligibility and both Houses of Congress would have had to hold investigations into the reason for the objections.
Not only did Vice President Cheney, in his role as President of the Senate not ask for objections, none of the Republicans lodged a point of order to make sure that objections were called for.
You can’t blame it all on Pelosi.

jamese777, who forgot? Haven’t you read the article that is the subject of this post? Who is letting anyone off the hook for not vetting this man as to Constitutional eligibility, even though no provision of any law, state or federal, including the Constitution requires such vetting? Read my blog. I maintain that the R’s are as culpable as the D’s in this situation. And that the R’s have the power in Texas to initiate a suit to prevent BO’s name from getting on the ballot in 2012; and have known since at least 2006 how to keep his name off the ballot in 2008.
