Mel Martinez Decides Obama Eligibility Issue
Right Pundits ^ | 3/5/2009 | Maggie M. Thorton

Posted on 03/05/2009 10:15:20 AM PST by AJMCQ

Senator Mel Martinez (R-FL) has allegedly told a constituent that President Obama’s eligibility, his natural born status, has been decided twice by the voters.

Senator Mel Martinez has laid the vetting of President Obama’s citizenship on the people of the United States. Does Congress assume responsibility of anything?

The question of President Obama’s eligibility to be POTUS arose early in the election process. Congress, as a body, has been silent on the issue. For months, voters have received no information, and in fact, no one seems to know who vets a Presidential candidate. So, no one has. Now, it appears that Senator Mel Martinez made a statement to a constituent.

Mel Martinez, Snowe, Specter and Collins are f’ing OUT and if McCain and Graham vote for the Hispanic Amnesty Bill that is coming down the road, they should have all RNC re-election funds PULLED from them...

I sent Steele a scalding letter about his Rush comments...why did we hire a RINO anyway?

The rule of law...especially the Rule of Constitutional Law...doesn’t mean squat to this people.

Did any of these bastards ever meet a criminal illegal alien whom they did not
help bypass the law, and/or whom they were not eager to jump into bed with?

By this logic, there should still be slavery and Jim Crow laws through-out the nation.

Therein lies the problem with RINOS. They damage us more than the Dems do. In fact, they empower and enable leftist policies to become law, and the de facto way of life.

ESAD, RINO.

With brave leadership like Michael Steele and Mark Sanford, I am sure the Republicans will challenge Obama on this issue.

Thrice if you count the only voters who actually count when it comes to the office of President, the electoral votes.

Congress has the power to challenge electoral votes. Just takes one Representative and one Senator.

Old Mel has already had his ass handed to him during the Shamnesty Bill fiasco and is not running for re-election.

i will post his response to my email when i receive it...

He will probably ask you for a donation to his campaign for Orange County dogcatcher.

Agreed. Conservatives need to stake claim to a valid political party and platform. That used to be the Republican Party. But, the GOP is rushing headlong into the same socialist nightmare as the DhimmiRats and their anointed one. Pitch out all the incumbents, IMO. But, at least get rid of the left leaning RINOs so we can start to rebuild.

It’s time to take back the country.

Urge a conservative to run for local office and groom him or her.

Mel Martinez needs to just take his pay from the taxpayers, shut up until his term is over, and then go back to Cuber, never to speak again to free people.
