I've been thinking the same
This haste to make Obama look like the President already is a counter strike against the various court efforts bubbling up that question Hussein's eligibility
But it's also just a naked power grab
Liberals have no life except to govern
To grab power via government
Republicans seek power and success economically in the free market
I agree. In fact, making himself look as if he already had the job was one of his campaign's tactics all along (remember the faux "Presidential Seal" he used?). But I think he's moving very quickly now to consolidate power and eliminate even the chance that the SC or anybody else would have the courage to declare him ineligible, even if he is finally forced to reveal that he is not a natural born citizen. By then, he and his regime will be a fait accompli, and I doubt that the SC would dare to do anything about it.
