I'm sorry. I thought perhaps you were a serious person, and had asked me a serious question. My error

You should be sorry for not understanding the Constitution. Apparently the socialists/marxists agenda to dumb down the schools by not teaching U.S. History, specifically the Constitution, has worked on you thereby reducing yourself to Walter Mitty.

You conveniently ignored my point regarding those court cases involving lawsuits regarding BO's/BS's eligibility where his henchmen demanded the court dismiss the case on the grounds the matter belongs in Congress or a judge ruled the matter belongs in Congress. Can you find those cases to buttress your claim it belongs in Congress or are you pulling a Walter Mitty?

I can do a lot better than case. Let us read from the Constitution, which Birthers prattle about a lot, without, apparently, ever having read it.

Art I, Sec 2: The House of Representatives shall chuse their Speaker and other Officers; and shall have the sole Power of Impeachment.

Art.I, Sec 3: The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments. When sitting for that Purpose, they shall be on Oath or Affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside.

That is the full story. Congress removes the President from office, and nobody else. Period. Ever. It is 2 + 2 = 4 simple. Has Congress failed in its responsibilities by first certifying BO as President Elect, then not impeaching him, because of (insert your favorite wack-a-doodle Birther theory here)? I don't think so, but even if it has, that doesn't change the Constitution. Congress, and Congress alone, can act on Birther theories. Which means a Birther with any sense will work very hard to elect Republicans to Congress.
