Report: Arizona Rep. considering birther lawsuit - Glenn Thrush - POLITICO.com

Report: Arizona Rep. considering birther lawsuit - Glenn Thrush - POLITICO.com: "Taking the birther thing to a new level, archconservative Rep. Trent Franks (R-Ariz.) is considering filing a lawsuit to put President Obama on the spot over his birth documents, according to a Mohave Daily News readout of a Franks town hall over the weekend.

Oh, yeah, and Franks apparently didn't object when an audience member suggested Obama 'denounced' the U.S. as a Christian nation during an overseas trip, which never happened.

MDN's Jim Seckler:

The other main issue dealt with numerous speakers questioning Obama's birth certificate and why there wasn't an investigation into whether he is a naturalized citizen. One woman said a newspaper announcement of his birth in Hawaii was not sufficient. Another asked how he could have a passport without a birth certificate.

Franks said there was not enough evidence that Obama is not an American citizen. He did say there was a lot of conflicting evidence of Obama's citizenship and that he was considering filing a lawsuit, the only congressman to do so. Franks asked why the president did not simply produce a birth certificate."
