Bottom line
The Republicans are not that stupid that they would launch a birther investigation. The political fallout will be too heavy
This does not mean they will not launch dozens of frivolous investigations to tie up the Obama Administration.
This is how they operate
Yes, because we all know that no Democratic would EVER suggest "investigation after investigation" or "hearing after hearing" or anything along THOSE lines . . . .
How long did the Democrats tie up the Bush inauguration in 2001?
How long did they investigate 9-11?
How long did they tie up investigating Bush for the Iraq war?
How long did they investigate for torture?
How long did they investigate the Katrina debacle?
And how much time and money did we spend investigating Whitewater and Monica Lewinsky?
How long did the Republicans tie up Al Franken in taking his seat?
