Statements like this really reveal the total ignorance of any particular court on this issue. Obama did not release his alleged COLB until AFTER the primary was OVER. No one knew prior to that point he was going to release a shady and shaky document. All the stuff about the length and costs of the campaign is completely irrelevent and speculative in regards to anyone challenging Obama’s eligiblity. The stuff about Congress being ‘satisfied’ is ignorant of the partisan make-up of Congress. And certainly no court is stupid enough to think a Congressional resolution = statement of fact, particularly in proving the details of one’s birth. As a matter of procedure, people don’t prove their citizenship with senate resolutions. What an embarrassment this Judge Land turned out to be.


The vote on the resolution containing the phrase “Hawaii, birthplace of the 44th President of the United States” was 378 to 0. As Judge Land mentioned, that’s
pretty “bipartisan” when ZERO members of the opposition vote against it.

Obama doesn’t have to “prove” his citizenship. Vice President Cheney certified his electoral college votes at a Joint Session of Congress, without objection and Chief Justice Roberts swore him in. He IS the president.

Obama’s eligibility opponents have to “prove” his ineligiblity which to date they have been unable to do in more than 70 attempts in lawsuits heard in civil courts.

For the resolution ... not for the birthplace statement. You forget that politicians who challenge anything about Obama's eligibility get instantly demonized by faither politicians and media, and there would be no point in stalling a statehood resolution over a toothless political statement. Here you show the judge relying on complete hearsay and logical fallacy .... not official documentation of Obama's citizenship.

Certifiying the votes is not the same as certifying eligibility ... either these people chose to remain ignorant, not get involved and/or made calculated moves to avoid political demonization ... of course, you forgot to mention how Obama botched his oath. He may be a a defacto president, but he's not a constitutionally qualified president.

Of course not. The courts hide behind standing so they don't have to deal with the eligibility issue. That's not something to be proud of. Second, it ignores that some states, like Hawaii, have laws that allow citizens to challenge the eligibility of candidates. Unfortunately no one realized soon enough that they could use these laws, which would grant standing to plaintiffs who don't get proper hearings and resolutions on the matter. Such won't be the case in 2012.

Funny, the suits keep on getting dismissed for LACK OF STANDING: meaning the evidence isn't even being considered.

Personal note: you might want to consider leaving the US if TSHTF. You don't sound like you're equipped to do much more than troll from your mother's basement.

Cheers!
