The fact remains that there are TWO bills floating about the Georgia statehouse, and that reconciliation IS to take place by committee. That much can be gleaned from the posted article.
As far as being a leftist shill goes, there is no need for such a role. The blatant insincerity of the official GOP in its failure to take on this fight makes it redundant. You want shills, talk to your Republican Congressman.
There is a very large element of dumb show in these "state eligibility" laws. The AG or the Sec of State of ANY state, already has the power to keep ANY candidate off ANY state ballot, pending the presentation of documentary proof of eligibility. They then have the power, right now, whether to accept that documentation or not, forcing the issue to court with the prospective candidate as plaintiff.
So state eligibility laws (none of which has been passed to date) would have the effect of forcing state officials to do their jobs. Well, I suppose that would be an improvement of sorts, but at the cost of adding another layer of litigation by those who do not want to do their jobs.
These endless circular discussions can only be ended with SCOTUS rulings: Is a "Native" a "Natural?" What then... exactly ... is a "Natural Born Citizen?" Next question: What do we do when we find out that the man, whose very name is an open question, living at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue isn't?
This is not a battle that has to be fought on one field only. I would bet my house that there is disastrous—as in, career-wrecking disaster—information on Obama’s original birth records (whatever they are). Forcing him to reveal what he’s been hiding doesn’t damage any other line of attack; it only strengthens our hand overall.
It does appear that you and I disagree on this, however. How about we just leave it at that? I have become convinced over time that eligibility laws are a good front on which to wage one aspect of the battle. You think otherwise. Fine. I’ve read your arguments, and find them unconvincing. Rather than waste any more of your time, or vice versa, let’s just leave it at that. Deal?
