I regard this as a brave and correct statement by Santorum. Name a single GOP candidate who has even allowed for the remote possibility that Obama’s BC could be proved to have been forged by evidence!
Investigation of forgery is exactly what Arpaio’s posse is doing, so I don't feel let down at all, but very encouraged.
One of Orly's biggest mistakes has been to repeatedly make criminal charges against Obama in civil filings in federal court. Criminal defendants are entitled to basic protections under our constitution which Orly has ignored.
Now, for the first time, Arpaio is in a position to impanel a grand jury to properly indict somebody (not necessarily Obama) for forging the WH BC pdf if his posse finds sufficient justification.
I regard this as a brave and correct statement by Santorum.
You left off the first sentence of Santorum's response to the reporter's question:
Sen. Rick Santorum told WND, "My understanding is that issue was solved."
I'm sorry, but that is disappointing in the extreme to me, because nothing could be further from the truth. It makes the balance of his statement look more like a defense of Obama's eligibility than anything else.
It's a defense born of sheer ignorance of the issue. A statement like that sharpens the focus on a politician like nothing else. The man's credibility as a public servant is now in the trash, as far as I'm concerned.
