"Stunner! Supremes to give eligibility case another look
Challenge to Obama getting 2nd conference before court

In a stunning move, the U.S. Supreme Court has scheduled another "conference" on a legal challenge to Barack Obama's eligibility to occupy the Oval Office, but officials there are not answering questions about whether two justices given their jobs by Obama will participate.

The court has confirmed that it has distributed a petition for rehearing in the case brought by attorney John Hemenway on behalf of retired Col. Gregory Hollister and it will be the subject of a conference on March 4.

It was in January that the court denied, without comment, a request for a hearing on the arguments. But the attorney at the time had submitted a motion for Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan, who were given their jobs by Obama, to recuse.

Should Obama ultimately be shown to have been ineligible for the office, his actions, including his appointments, at least would be open to challenge and question.

At the time, the Supreme Court acknowledged the "motion for recusal" but it changed it on official docketing pages to a "request." And it reportedly failed to respond to the motion.

The rule of four is not required by the Constitution, any law, or even the Supreme Court’s own published rules.[2] Rather, it is a custom that has been observed since the Court was given discretion over which appeals to hear by the Judiciary Act of 1891, Judiciary Act of 1925 and the Supreme Court Case Selections Act of 1988.

I know that, and I have no reason to believe that the Court will abandon or modify that customary rule to either grant or deny certiorari in this case or any other case in the foreseeable future. It's not going to happen.

Can’t they read over at WND?

It's not about facts, it's about emotion. At least that is what I am told here.

Kagan was representing Obama citizenship
« on: August 31, 2010, 04:07:32 PM »


Once again the Senate sold us out.
Well, someone figured out why Obama nominated Elana Kagan for the Supreme Court.... Pull up the Supreme Courts website, go to the docket and search for Obama. She was the Solicitor General for all the suits against him filed with the Supreme Court to show proof of natural born citizenship.He owed her big time. All of the requests were denied of course. They were never heard. It just keeps getting deeper and deeper, doesn’t it? The American people mean nothing any longer.. It’s all about payback time for those that compromised themselves to elect someone that really has no true right to even be there. We should be getting so sick of all of this nonsense.
Here are some websites of the Supreme Court Docket:
You can look up some of these hearings and guess what?? Elana Kagan is the attorney representing Obama!!!

Check out these examples:

Old news?

The petition for Rehearing was filed 2/7. The docket was recently updated to a status of DISTRIBUTED as of 2/16.

They have a conflict of interest and should not be in on the discussions. PERIOD. It doesn’t matter if their votes make a difference or not.

WND later pulled that article from its website, because none of the cases they cited were actually eligibility cases. The DOJ has never filed anything with the Supreme Court in any eligibility case, either under Kagan’s name or her successor’s.

The longer this ursurpation of the government goes on the less legitimacy it has in the eyes of citizens.

Just don’t pretend you’re speaking for conservatives or “true conservatives” while you’re out there chasing windmills.

Don’t pretend your a conservative when you ignore the Constitution.

For the record, I had an overwhelming suspicion AZ would fold on the Eligibility issue, and they did.

I held a small, glimmer of hope that it would at least get out of the senate judiciary committee. Maybe another state will push for it.

I'm surprised it has taken so long. It should not be a big deal for at least one State to have passed a Presidential Eligibility bill already. That is presuming the Thug-in-Chief is not terrorizing politicians who propose such measures, as if we were residing in a third rate Third World hellhole. /sarc

Our best hope is for at least one state to enact BC legislation. If enough of us let them know it is important, it will happen. Keep those calls and emails coming.

You’re torn? Meaning you sort of want him to be found ineligible, and sort of don’t??

Riots? Who gives a flying anything about riots? If he’s not found ineligible sooner or later, there will be much, much worse than a few riots. Or even a bunch of riots. There were riots before, did the world end?
