Dude didn't knock off a liquor store...

I can't believe you're really that simple minded about what has occurred.
I repeat, is there a statute of limitations on the constitutional issue of OBummer's eligibility?
Also, where is it written in the constitution that if he got over half the vote, it voids the constitution's eligibility clause and the rule of law?

WTF does “statute of limitations” have to do with any of this?

I am not suggesting Obama can't be convicted of a crime because the statute of limitations has expired. Sheeeesh!

While I believe most of the birther conspiracies range from misguided to ridiculous, there has always been only two possible, albeit implausible outcomes; impeachment, or the Supreme Court somehow invalidating the last presidential election. There was a legal window of “ripeness” for contesting the validity of the 2008 election (Ankeny v Indiana), but the further we got from the election results, the less likely a judicial remedy.

2 years and 80+ court cases later and still nothing. The courts have spoken loudly and repeatedly. They have no solution to offer. As a conservative, I am extremely grateful the judicial branch has recused itself from what is clearly a legislative issue.

As far as impeachment goes...since most of the Republican candidates were uncomfortable even talking about their kid's birthday for fear they would be mistakenly branded a birther, I seriously doubt there is much political support for birtherism hearings in the newly elected House.
