I am no fan of Obama, but I am a lawyer with 30+ years experience litigating in federal courts, and I can tell a cxase that's going nowhere when I see one. This case will go no further than any of the previous 62 eligibility suits.
In your opinion, is this not getting anywhere because of the political aspects of this or the merits of the case?
What do attorney's need to do to get this heard and how should they go about it?
I'm asking because you have experience in this, I'd like to hear your opinion.
I believe in the wisdom that accompanies such experience. Why, in your experience, is this a non-starter? I’m anything BUT a lawyer, so I’m truly curious.
Why not file one that will go somewhere? Talk is cheap. At least some people are trying and that is more than most on Fr.
Hey LL, you gotta understand that the Birthers aren't engaging in litigation. They are living vicariously, through Orly, a political Walter Mitty fantasy. Rather than engage in the mundane activities of real world politics, running for office, working for a campaign, volunteering for a ballot security committee, they take part, in their minds, in an epic struggle, mano a mano, against Obama, with the Presidency of the United States at stake.
So Orly's losing lawsuit of the day is not litigation, but a plot device, to allow the Birthers to engage i n their fantasy. When she loses this lawsuit she will, assuming she can scrape up filing fees, and bus fare to the Federal Court House, file another, equally merit less. And the Birthers, overjoyed that they can keep holding their wives purses and playing Walter Mitty for a couple more months, will flock to post her praises, and denounce as an Obama Troll anyone who points out that Orly is gonna lose.
