If Speaker Boehner does not take that small step, I will wonder why. Is he afraid of the facts that would be revealed?
More specifically, is he afraid that he might find out that Obama is not constitutionally qualified, which might require an impeachment inquiry?
Or, is he afraid that he might find out that Obama is constitutionally qualified?
I don't know the answers to any of those questions, but I would very much like to see Speaker Boehner solve the mysteries with a simple subpoena. He's the only hope left. If he doesn't act, history will record that folks like me are just a bunch of poor losers and cranks who can't accept defeat or reality.

Well, in January, aside from Obama, Speaker Boehner will the only person who has the power to resolve these constitutional questions. With a wave of his hand, he could order that the relevant documents in Hawaii be subpoened and produced. No fuss, no muss.

“You know, during the campaign of 2008, I was actually in the mainland campaigning for Senator McCain. This issue kept coming up so much in the campaign, and again I think it’s one of those issues that is simply a distraction from the more critical issues that are facing the country.
And so I had my health director, who is a physician by background go and personally view the birth certificate in the birth records of the Department of Health, and we issued a news release at that time saying the president was, in fact, born at Kapi’olani Hospital in Honolulu, Hawaii. And that’s just a fact. And yet people continue to call up and e-mail and want to make it an issue. And I think it’s, again, a horrible distraction for the country by the people who continue this. It’s been established. He was born here.” [Former} Governor Linda Lingle of Hawai’i (R), May 2, 2010.
Finally, if Speaker Boehner were to go ahead and fall into the Obama birth certificate trap, the NEW Governor of Hawaii who would be releasing any birth information is Obama’s closest political ally, the far leftis, Neal Abercrombie. Guess what anything released by Abercrombie will say?
