RE: Georgia Presidential Preference Primary Hearings
Dear Mr. Jablonski:I received your letter expressing your concerns with the manner in which the Office of StateAdministrative Hearings ("OSAH") has handled the candidate challenges involving your client andadvising me that you and your client will "suspend" participation in the administrative proceeding. WhileI regret that you do not feel that the proceedings are appropriate, my referral of this matter to anadministrative law judge at OSAH was in keeping with Georgia law, and specifically O.C.G.A. § 21-2-5.As you are aware, OSAH Rule 616-1-2-.17 cited in your letter only applies to parties to a hearing. As thereferring agency, the Secretary of State's Office is not a party to the candidate challenge hearingsscheduled for tomorrow. To the extent a request to withdraw the case referral is procedurally available, Ido not believe such a request would be judicious given the hearing is set for tomorrow morning.In following the procedures set forth in the Georgia Election Code, I expect the administrative law judgeto report his findings to me after his full consideration of the evidence and law. Upon receipt of thereport, I will fully and fairly review the entire record and initial decision of the administrative law judge.Anything you and your client place in the record in response to the challenge will be beneficial to myreview of the initial decision; however, if you and your client choose to suspend your participation in theOSAH proceedings, please understand that you do so at your own peril.I certainly appreciate you contacting me about your concerns, and thank you for your attention to thismatter.Sincerely,Brian P. Kemp
AT YOUR OWN PERIL!
has such a delicious ring to it...I just had to add it to my tagline.
The 3 branches of the FEDERAL government.
There are two other legal entities in the Constitution, We the People and the Several States.
The Federal government has so far been successful in stopping individual lawsuits between People and the President on the grounds of standing.
It will be harder to claim that the Several States don't have standing because federal elections are constitutionally state-by-state elections, and the Constitution grants the power to the States to regulate their elections for Electors.

{Is that correct? And if so, how would this be different?}
No I don’t think it is correct, the Supreme Court, as I recall, smacked the Florida Supreme Court for failing to uphold the equal protection of Florida Citizens.
WOW!!!
What an awesome....and apparently unintimidated...judge!
Thank you so much for the ping.
I hope you will ping me to any updates.
Was it. . . you know, "raised"? ;)
“Note his signupd date....”
My signup date is a week later than that, and although I’m still a bit shy of 400 comments and only have a handful of posts to my credit, I think my activity history clearly shows where I stand on this treasonous usurpation garbage. The relative length of a FReeper’s tenure is only one factor in the sniff-o-meter’s calculations. Just sayin’. :)
Yep.
That's why all of the money has been spent covering all the history and keeping cases from being heard at all. Their cards are all crap, and they know that if they ever have to show them publicly in a court of law, they'll have no choice but to fold.
Careful, folks. When an inveteratus gambleronicus gets cornered, they often pull the Joker. Wag the Dog in 3, 2, 1. . .
“I’m not popping any champagne corks yet, but I might lay in a bottle just in case.”
What, no hot sake? ;)
It is up to State legislatures/electors to determine if a Presidential candidate has the necessary qualifications. Georgia exercised that power by setting up an administrative review process.
Yes. By the Constitution Article II Section 1. There is NOTHING any federal court can legitimately do if GA decides to keep the Kenyan off their ballot. All of the discussions about NBC, Minor . . . are interesting, but irrelevant.
Not my tipple. It’s OK every now and then, but if I a going to enjoy an adult beverage I’d rather have scotch.
Having said that, there is a certain something about champagne that does make it the perfect drink for a celebration. I’m thinking a nice Moet.
Chilling it will be the easy part. We’re down to about 2 to 6 degrees C almost every day these days.
Nancy Pelosi claimed she had dirt on Gingrich. I wish I could have asked her to her face, “Can somebody in jail throw dirt at Newt Gingrich?”
She needs to be brought to trial - AFTER all the quislings lower on the aiding and abetting food chain have had their chances to plea bargain for reduced or dropped charges for their cooperation in finding out who knew what and when.
lol.
She said it was but it didn’t leave a very big mark when she photographed it.
Literally. It was too small to do the job of legally certifying a birth certificate. It had to be 2 1/4 inch and it was only 1 9/16 inches. Either the HDOH gave Obama a BC that was not legally certified, or Obama’s people forged that piece of paper and added a raised seal that was the wrong size.
IOW, we KNOW that the piece of paper that Obama’s lawyers so secretively allowed Guthrie to feel was not legally certified.
Hmm, I wonder what would happen if, the next time I have to go before a judge (I have never had to, and don’t have any plans to do so in the foreseeable future), I sent him/her a letter saying I intend to “suspend” participation in the administrative proceeding??? I dare say it wouldn’t be pretty - I would probably be given free room and board for quite a long time, at taxpayers’ expense.
Is the beating John Kerry took, in any way related to this case? Just a thought since the Kennedys helped him hide all his records.
Amazingly, I used the world “tipple” today in an email to by drinking buddies in Harumi.
No kidding! Remember the judge that said in court that this whole issue has been “tweeted and texted to death” or something like that. THAT is how legal issues get resolved now???
Sounds like the GA SOS was not impressed with the arrogance of Obama’s people. lol.
You know, the Europeans used to talk about “Cowboy Bush” and that southern swagger, but it’s a really freeing thing to have in positions of authority somebody with confidence that is based in what is right rather than sheer arrogance based on belief in their own personal, lawless power.
Give me that southern swagger any time - based on the rule of law not the rule of men. It can come from women just as well as from men (see Jan Brewer and Michele Bachman), but people who are “ballsy” enough to do what is right are a service to the whole world.
I hope and pray that both Malihi and Kemp show us what they’re made of, and that they are made in the true southern mould I can’t help but love.
