Obama eligibility case will be heard on the merits !! Please distribute everywhere.

At the hearing today at the Federal Court building in Santa Ana, Judge Carter reportedly said the following: 1. There will be a trial. 2. It will be heard on the merits. 3. Nothing will be dismissed on proceedural issues. 4. The trial will be expeditious, and the judge pledged to give case priority. 5. Being a former Marine he realizes the importance of having a Constitutionally qualified POTUS/CINC. 6. Judge stated that if Obama isn't Constitutionally qualifed he needs to leave the White House.

If the O is found to be ineligible, the Dems will just pass legislation to change the law, and then make it retroactive, but at least people will know the truth.

Honduras is a great example how to do it???

[LachlanMinnesota]

LAwyers not involved in the case can always say they could have done it better, faster and cheaper.

Legislation cannot change the Constitution.

[FARS]

tend to agree with the mob part unless somehow he faced daanger to hiself by doing so in which case he would deflate with a whimper.

[dcwusmc]

At least it gets an actual hearing and trial!

[lucysmom]

I could not follow all of the “0bama defaulted, therefore....”

Orly claimed that Obama defaulted, however Orly failed to serve Obama so the court appearance today was about correcting that problem. Obama has 60 days to respond.

I don’t beleive an impeachment would be required. An impeachment and trial is required to remove a President. If Obama is Constitutionally disqualified from the office, he IS NOT President ab initio.

He needs only be escorted out by the US Marshalls, or Secret Service, acting under Court Order.

I suppose my view could be disputed, but this is how I see it.

"I hope he got to keep his military weapon, and has it under his pillow."

I am quite sure that judges are financially empowered enough to be able to afford a decent handgun, and as a Marine, will own a handgun a tad more powerful than a 9mm Beretta.

[FARS]

I some instasnces the Judge might accede to view teh documents first and decide at that point whther to allow Orly t see them or make a ruling as to admissibility. The truth would be out.

The only thing now in teh way is Obama’s first Executive Order as President which was to order all his personal papers sealed from being viewed by anyone.

Legislation cannot change the Constitution.

Two points:

1. The Constitution doesn't define "natural born". So, Congress can simply rewrite the law to cure any problem a Kenyan birth would present.
2. At this point in time, enforcement of eligibility is up to Congress. A majority of the House and two thirds of the Senate. Not gonna happen absent a tremendous uproar across the land.

...and as a Marine, will own a handgun a tad more powerful than a 9mm Beretta.

and will be really good at using it on someone sneaking up in the dark.

[John Valentine]

All this may be so, but THIS Court is the one empowered to issue subpoenas and force production of evidence.

Once all the documentation is pried loose, the case will either stand or fall.

SAem goes for AntiMullah.com

[Aria]

Actually I have gone to her site and also sent her money. I support her efforts even though she doesn’t have a degree from an illustrious law school and therefore a more rustic view of applying the law. However, I’m not a lawyer and can’t judge this for myself.

[GloriaJane]

Well if this goes through we can all thank Alan Keyes for getting it started.

[txhurl]

At this point in time, enforcement of eligibility is up to Congress.

No... it is up to the Secretaries of State of all the States to issue eligibility.

You can’t get on the ballot of any state until its SOS declares you eligible..which until now has not been a problem.

[FARS]

I get the same feeling.

[Plummz]

The judge was likely referring primarily to the narrow case that US Attorneys were there, to argue on Obama’s behalf, that Obama hadn’t even been served. The judge sais they were being ridiculous and needed to immediately take service of the papers. That is taking ridic proecdure to a new level.
