At the beginning of yesterday’s hearing to determine the legal and Constitutional eligibility of Barack Hussein Obama for placement on the State of Georgia ballot in November, Judge Michael Malihi was said to have read “the last paragraph of [Obama] Attorney Michael Jablonski’s letter” to Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp.
And in the barely 2 hour proceedings which reviewed 3 lawsuits demanding Obama not appear on that ballot, this might have been the most significant “statement” made by the otherwise reserved Malihi. (1)
Like Obama, Jablonski was a no-show in the Georgia courtroom, leaving Obama represented by no counsel at the proceeding.
And although the judge adjourned the hearing with no decision, no ruling, in fact nothing more than a “thank you” to the participants, the last paragraph of Jablonski’s letter states “We await your taking the requested action and as we do, we will, of course, suspend further participation in these proceedings, including the hearing scheduled for January 26th.” (2)
Well Obama had been subpoenaed to appear in that courtroom. The subpoena had been specifically and without reservation upheld by Judge Malihi just 6 days earlier. So Obama was in obvious violation of the court’s order.
So maybe, just maybe Judge Malihi read the final words of Jablonski’s hyper arrogant, “we don’t believe your little state or your silly hearing are worth our time” letter for the purpose of reading into the record the fact that it was indeed the decision of Obama and his attorney to NOT attend and to NOT honor legal subpoenas.
And if that is the case, it means Malihi is clearing the decks...

By turning into a coward, Obama has made the judge’s job very easy.
Hope the Judge keeps a video and recorder going; at all times. Am sure he gets some interesting phone calls. . .notes passed. . .
Since this piece was written, it’s been reported that Judge Malihi had offered plaintiff’s counsel a default judgement prior to the hearing based upon the absence of Obama and his attorney. Not one of the three wanted to go that way as evidence against Obama’s eligibility had NEVER been presented in a court. In all previous hearings around the country it had been the judge’s decision that none of those bringing suit had “standing.”
So it appears the decision of Judge Malihi will be based on the evidence presented by each of the attorneys in the 3 unconnected suits. Deadline for additional filings with the court will be February 5th.

The judge should find him in contempt and issue a warrant.
Boy, if the other party doesn't show, especially under subpoena . . . not good.
I wouldn't expect a decision before the middle of next month. - Very exciting.
The breadth and depth of Obama’s arrogance are simply breathtaking. When he falls, it will be a crash heard ‘round the world.
Bring it to ‘em, Judge Malihi! Since 0bama is not a natural-born citizen, he has no constitutional standing to be elected (or in this case, re-elected) president. Therefore, he should not be on the ballot in ANY state, nor should any state’s Secretary of State validate ANY election that 0bama wins.
Saw a news item (sorry can’t remember where) that the Judge set February 6 as the next court date. Usually, following a trial, such a date would be set for the judge to announce his decision, but that wasn’t clear from the news item I saw.
and the butt should be thrown behind bars immediately, with all his “laws” reversed.
Georgia has 15 electoral votes. Keeping him off the ballot in GA may have some affect in a close election, but what about other states? Are they just waiting to see what GA decides?
IMO, we need to get other states on board with this, some with a lot of votes.
If a republican can’t carry Georgia, there is no chance of defeating Obama anyway. That said it will be interesting to see what the White House will do when the order is given to remove him from the Georgia ballot.
SI am afraid thsat the attorneys for the commie Executive Officer will insist that the big annnouncement be made prior to the election; the announcement being, “People of Americ, move away from your Consitution and Bill of Rights with your hands up! You are now the slaves of the Socialist REepublic of Planet Earth!”
As I understand it, Judge Malihi does not have the power to keep Obama off the ballot. The decision is up to the Georgia Secretary of State. But in any case, for the time being, we are talking about an uncontested primary. Obama will ignore it unless it starts to show in polls and focus groups.
Push will come to shove when we get to the general. If any state, regardless of electoral vote count, tries to keep Obama off the ballot, the case will zoom to the Supreme Court (I believe lawyers call it the rocket docket
). The Court will find that he was born a citizen in Honolulu and that natural born citizenship is simply citizenship by birth. In the light of precedent, any other definition would seem contrived to deny him reelection by judicial fiat.

All that being true, then what is the point of this?
I don’t believe he is a NBC in the first place, but is this all for naught?
Hilarious.
Georgia has 15 electoral votes. If Obama is not on the ballot, those are electoral votes automatically going to the Republican candidate.
Maybe Obama feels that, because it is a southern state, he will just save himself the time and money of campaigning in a state he probably not win it in the general election anyways. Hence the no show.
And yes, the letter was arrogant.
