    I didn't say that. No one said that. That is a strawman argument.

    Here's what was said:

    .

    I submit that BillKeepingTheFaith is correct in that the Republicans implied Obama was not a natural born citizen in an effort to remove a duly elected president.

    I did not say you or anyone said it. You all are comparing apples and refrigerators. Unless someone was actively trying to remove him its not the same thing.

    Pol: House could impeach president

    The point is that Republicans pulled impeachment stunts against Obama. It's just that they had the good sense not to actually prosecute their charges.

    Some wanted an investigation. None moved for articles to be drawn. Huge difference.

    I understand. But it was still a "stunt", like BillKeepingTheFaith posted.

    You interjected yourself into my response to someone else and then moved the goal post. Please go back and read his original post. It and my response was very specific.

    It was nit a stunt. It was a justifiable concern that should have been investigated.

    And what would be the purpose of the investigation? What would be the follow-up to it if there were evidence he was not a natural born citizen?

    He would be removed from office. That would have been a Constitutional removal from office.

    Actually, Hillary’s campaign raised the issue during her bid for the 2008 Democrat nomination. And it may have also been an issue a bit earlier.
