WASHINGTON (AP) -- Louisiana Republican Sen. David Vitter says he supports conservative organizations challenging President Barack Obama's citizenship in court.

Vitter, who is running for re-election, made the comments at a town hall event on Sunday when a constituent asked what he would do about what the questioner said was Obama's "refusal to produce a valid birth certificate."

Inasmuch as so-called “teabaggers” favor libertarian views on how government should conduct itself, she should be copacetic with that.

I know. But the dumber people are the more I like to put it in their faces. If only I could post it as an ad on Fox News once an hour.

What was the outcome of that? I thought it had passed.

I guess the Constitution really is null and void as the progressives have said all along.

Anyone who cares about their country would be very concerned that a POTUS had hidden every scrap of information of his life that he possibly could.

No other president, Rat or Pub, has been that way. All have been willing, if not positively glad, to show whatever official documentation was generated by the milestones in their lives.

You've got to give the cabal that's animated him credit. They're good.

When next year rolls around after Obama and the Dems are decisively hammered at the polls this November, the heat on Obama with getting a lot hotter exponentially.

He later cautioned that the matter could distract from policy issues.

Upholding the Constitution against the marxist usurper is the paramount policy issue.

It is too late to keep him from taking office but it’s not too late to make people face what a stupid thing they have done. It’s not too late to expose the MSM for the lying traitors they are too because they don’t have terms that expire.

“Birther” or “Tea Bagger” are terms the Leftist Media continue to say to demean Conservatives and their efforts.

Papers please, Mr. Soetero.

Most of them, yes. None has ever hidden this much. None could have AFAIK. The scale of it is downright bizarre.

I still think that thug politics have some surprises for Americans in Nov. They know they are going to lose, badly, without some intervention. History says not to trust Marxists in power.

>>> The question is, when they finally decide that BO is not American -born, what happens then?

Having BO declared ineligible would lead to his immediate removal, and most likely would clear the way for EVERYTHING he has done to be reversed by the courts, INCLUDING his supreme court picks.

Maybe this is why El-Rushbo is holding off on the issue... because getting him ousted now would only give the dems the chance to re-solidify/re-appoint/re-sign all of BO’s UNLAWFUL actions as president.

Like when dealing with the mob, you don’t just go after the boss (cause another successor just rises up)... you go after the entire organization all at once.

Republicans up to it??? That’s where the problem may be.

Bither schmirther. We the people have an absolute right to question our public servants if we so please. It’s not up to BHO, the LSM or anybody else—these nimrods work for us, not the other way around. Who cares whether one politician or another approves?

More like treason, perjury, lying under oath...he lied to get into power to take down our government...if that’s not treason, I don’t know what is.

Vitter is up by 15%-20% and will win. I’m willing to bet that he was used as a “test” by the GOP to see what will happen by this. I’d bet on it.

The Dims think that this is a winning issue for Obama. Hahaa...

It is nothing but a drag on Obama. The idiotic Dems think if they have the liberal media, who they have in their hip pocket, ridicule the 'Birthers,' that ridicule will change people's minds, and moreover, are delusional enough to think that it is a winner at the ballot box.

I believe all of his records are hidden because if they were public I believe they would prove he is nothing more than an affirmative action hire for every position he has ever held.

I wonder what my nickname is.

I said it back in 2008, I’ll say it again now. People need to pay attention to the tactics that they used in committing caucus fraud. It was a successful test run. They stole the nomination from the Clinton Machine.

Yes,...they better have something a thousands times worse than some Congressman sex-texting some Congressional page, or a DUI they dredged up from 20 years ago to overcome this election that they attempt to smear all conservatives with. I highly doubt that the Dims will be able to say anything that will overturn the butt kicking they are about to receive within 4 months from today. The electorate is getting wise to their mechanization, especially with Obama in the White House.
