I hope this is not sarcasm or a lie of some kind

The rule of law, and our three-branch system of government, now hang in the balance. If the Georgia court issues a ruling on the merits and an order finding Obama in contempt of court, and if that contempt order actually results in real punishment of some kind, then we will still have a Constitutional Republic. If this doesn’t happen, then Obama will have been rewarded for showing complete contempt for the judicial branch.....Understand that the goal of the Georgia ballot challenge was to have a court rule on the merits of the Constitutional question: Does the term “natural born citizen” in Article II of the Constitution require a Presidential candidate to have two parents that were U.S. citizens at the time the candidate was born? Obama wants to avoid having a court rule on this question. That is why he didn’t show up and ordered his attorneys to not show up. Obama was hoping that the Georgia court would enter a default judgment rather than rule on the merits. If the court enters a default judgment, Obama will have succeeded in avoiding the Constitutional eligibility question. He will then appeal the default judgment, get the appellate court to suspend the default judgment pending appeal, and then delay the appeal until after the primary. This is undoubtedly Obama’s plan.

Amicus brief regarding "natural born citizen" requirement of eligibility:
http://naturalborncitizen.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/georgia-brief-merged-final-redacted.pdf
Judge Malihi gave parties until Feb. 5th to submit written arguments. In a private pre-hearing audience in his chambers, Malihi offered a default judgement but the complainants asked that the hearing proceed in order to have testimony and evidence entered into the record.
Malihi said he will rule and submit a recommendation to the Georgia Secretary of State shortly after his Feb. 5th deadline.
Seems like the first question to ask is whether or not Georgia has any standing to take up this issue in the first place, specifically for a Presidential election.
The only group that can decide that is the USSC. And they’ve pretty much ruled on that already.
In Bush vs. Gore the USSC decided that Federal law trumps state law for Presidential elections, and took the recount case away from the Florida Supreme Court.
It doesn’t seem likely that they will come back now and say that they were wrong back then.
Bush vs. Gore was a terrible infringement on States’ Rights. Bush probably would have won anyway. But because of that ruling Georgia is just wasting their time.
