The U.S. Supreme Court will consider Friday whether to take up a lawsuit challenging President-elect Barack Obama's U.S. citizenship, a continuation of a New Jersey case embraced by some opponents of Obama's election. The meeting of justices will coincide with a vigil by the filer's supporters in Washington on the steps of the nation's highest court.

As far as I know he has not either. I don’t know about Michael Savage. It would seem that this would be right up his alley.

Yes, I know its not a criminal case, but it still seems the accusor must be able to provide some sort of evidence that the president elect is not a citizen. Yes, it is suspect that Fauxbama could make this all go away by simply producing a birth certificate, or telling Hawaii to release his to whever wants it.. however I would think that legally speaking however the allegation being made by the plaintiff must have some evidence for his allegation to force the court to force the defendant to prove otherwise.

The name of the hospital isn’t listed for any of the births; were all of the other parents in on the conspiracy too?

No. I'm just saying that the birth announcements do not prove or disprove a Kenyan birth.

Obama's refusal to provide his BC as requested is troubling. What is he trying to hide?

Todays Chicago Tribune article regarding Hussein the Magnificent resisting demands from the American people to produce a NON-forged BC has over 800 comments.

Eight HUNDRED.

U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice in Pakistan… zero

Zimbabwe declared a national emergency over a cholera epidemic… zero

Iraq's approval of a security pact that sets a three-year timeframe for U.S. troops to leave… 2 comments.

The way I see this thing is the Supreme Court has exactly two options. Take the case and risk having the “minority population” burn down the neighborhoods they live in

…or…

not take the case and incur a total constitutional meltdown and possible nationwide internal war.

I’m thinking the Supremes had DAMN well better take the case and conduct a full investigation.

Amen and ditto!

And this issue is conclusively and
constitutionally resolved once and
for all.

God bless and protect America .. and
righteously guide Donofrio and the
Justices.

Friday’s inevitable headline: “U.S. Supreme Court throws out Obama Birth Certificate Lawsuit, Will not Hear Case”

~~~

If ... IF .. that happens, the lamestreams have added
another asterisk to their huge stack for their total
lack of credibility and professional journalism ... AND

just how do they credibly bring up this subject out
of the blue .. a subject they’ve purposely ignored
for months ??

The dinosaur media/journalism is dead.

WE are the new, credible media and that’s just
the way it is. No more dependence or trust in
them for anything.

By the way you should strike through the word “die” in your tagline, some people are offended by it.

~~~

Since you’re relatively new to these parts and maybe are unfamiliar with American history, allow me to describe just what those words mean.

LIVE FREE .... OR DIE

~~~

New Hampshire Almanac >State Emblem

State Motto. The words “Live Free or Die,” written by General John Stark, July 31, 1809, shall be the official motto of the state.

It was the 1945 Legislature that gave New Hampshire its official motto and emblem, as World War II approached a successful end.

The motto became “Live Free Or Die,” as once voiced by General John Stark, the state’s most distinguished hero of the Revolutionary War, and the world famous Old Man of the Mountain was voted the official state emblem.

The motto was part of a volunteer toast which General Stark sent to his wartime comrades, in which he declined an invitation to head up a 32nd anniversary reunion of the 1777 Battle of Bennington in Vermont, because of poor health.

The toast said in full: “Live Free Or Die; Death Is Not The Worst of Evils.” The following year, a similar invitation (also declined) said: “The toast, sir, which you sent us in 1809 will continue to vibrate with unceasing pleasure in our ears, “Live Free Or Die; Death Is Not The Worst Of Evils.”

Would you choose any other way in which to live?

People keep saying this....and then simultaneously saying the media did this or caused that. They can't be the "dinosaur media whom no one believes at all" and, at the same instant, have all the power to cost McCain the election and "make" Obama.

Blogger A: "The media is dead, done. No one read the paper any more, no one watches the news on television. It's all the internet and talk radio. We're the only ones with any relevance or power."

Blogger A (two days later): "Lying MSM is giving Obama a free ride. Obama is just a media-creation. If it wasn't for them, Obama would have lost. They kept things from the public and trashed McCain!"

Doesn't jive.

WOW, I am, almost, speechless, Mr. Strar-Wise? Your knee is out of control, still it. If my posting elicited this response there is nothing I wish to say except .... READ AND ANALYZE THE BLOODY MEANING OF MY WORDS.

The Donofrio case does not rely on a birth certificate. It doesn't care if the birth certificate is 100% gilded in gold. Donofrio's case is about natural born citizen. It is saying that because his father is Kenyan (and under British rule), then 0bama cannot be a natural born American citizen. He is saying BOTH parents must be American citizens and their child born on American soil to be a natural born citizen.

The Natural Born Citizen question is the one Donofrio is asking the Supreme Court to visit. He is not concerned if 0bama is a citizen or not.

I think what you said was dang presumptuous, nervy and arrogant ... not only the audacity to tell waxer1 to change the words/meaning of the choice of NH state motto for his tagline, but even going there.

And BTW, I’m Ms. Starwise.

Read Post 35 and then be gone. I gave an explanation to the poster I responded to, I feel no compulsion to give one to you. I believe you just jumped into the middle an exchange that you had little knowledge of.

I signed up this morning because I saw a post about the newspaper announcement at the same time I saw this post. I said “take it for what it's worth” for a reason. You're right, this doesn't prove anything.

Let's be honest. No piece of paper will prove BHO was born in the United States. Even with technically perfect paperwork, there will be thousands if not millions of skeptical folks. I'm sure there are a lot of Free Republic readers who were born in the US who don't have original copies of their birth certificates or other necessary paperwork. And I'm also sure there are people who have the most authentic appearing birth certificates you can imagine who weren't born here. I suppose I have no other point to make beyond that.
