GOP Rep Supports Passing A Bill To Investigate Obama's Birth Certificate (parade, conspiracy)

[TempesT68]

And the GOP insanity marches on,..


Rep. Ted Yoho (R-Fla.) told supporters he would back a bill to investigate the authenticity of President Barack Obama's birth certificate, though he conceded the 'birther' movement was a "distraction" from more pressing issues.
Right Wing Watch posted audio of Yoho's comments from a Saturday town hall, in which the Florida Republican said he called his colleague Rep. Steve Stockman (R-Texas) to pledge his support for a potential bill that would launch an investigation into whether the president's birth certificate is fake.



Ted Yoho Says He Would Support A Birther Bill

He's probably facing a Tea Party primary opponent. Ya gotta feed your base some batchit-crazy red meat to get re-elected.

Good Lord. And this never occurred to any of them when Obama was a Senator among them ?

Each side has their buttons to press to get the base riled up.

The entire GOP or few?

Are you swiping the entire GOP as the same as this person?

And your thread title is a lie, it's not even a bill yet, by your own link.

LOL. What does he think would happen if he did introduce a bill in the House and it somehow passed? That it would pass the Senate, and then the president would sign it?

The parade of fools continues...

So what? You could spend your entire waking existence posting about stupid proposed bills that come from legislators from both parties, including some that actually get written and go to Committee.

And others that actually get passed
