Arkansas Matters ^ | December 6, 2008 | RNS

Posted on 12/06/2008 2:00:18 PM PST by Deepest End

The decision on granting a hearing challenging President-elect Barack Obama's U.S. citizenship is still pending.

The "Washington Times" reports that the U.S. Supreme Court held a private conference Friday morning to discuss whether to take up a lawsuit but it was not on the list of court orders for the day.

According to the "Times" a Supreme Court spokesman said the decision to hear the case will most likely be announced next week.

The decision to “hear” may just mean that the “justices” will say there are no grounds for the appeal. Few are more socialistic than the five judges who dominate the court. I cannot see for a second that they would permit an honest hearing.

Well..., the other case that was accepted for a hearing was announced on Friday. It was said in another article that this is usually the procedure, in that it gives the parties ample time to be able to respond to the granted hearing.

The ones which are not heard are usually not announced right away. So, the fact that it was not announced, while the other case was, indicates that this Obama Birth Certificate case is *not* going to be heard.

But. a lot of people already knew that this was going to happen...

Even though I know this case SHOULD go forward, SCOTUS will probably not allow it to do so. I hope and pray I’m wrong.

It only taakes 4 judges to ‘hear the case’.

I doubt your sources are very good.

Add George Bush to your list.

If you think I am your brother than I know your sources are all in your head.

Someone with REAL sources wouldn’t brag here on FR about “my sources” that is just too funny.

But I’ll bet even if you have a friend in the court system they do not work at the SCOTUS.

As former military - sworn to defend the Constitution against all enemies - both foreign and domestic — I would like to KNOW that the CIC who has the power to order me into certain death, at least held that office under conditions SPECIFIED by the Constitution!

If Obama can’t PROVE he is a legitimate NATURAL BORN AMERICAN CITIZEN —I will never accept him as President, and in fact view him as an enemy of the Constitution and Republic.

For Obama to refuse to submit documents to verify his eligibility — is certainly justification to deny him the office.

Or they could stay the electoral college from voting pending this case. SCOTUS has to the 15th of Dec.

According to the "Times" a Supreme Court spokesman said the decision to hear the case will most likely be announced next week.

It appears to me they are giving themselves the time to ponder it.

“If Obama can’t PROVE he is a legitimate NATURAL BORN AMERICAN CITIZEN —I will never accept him as President, and in fact view him as an enemy of the Constitution and Republic.”

That makes two of us!

He has no past. What is he hiding???

I would think that they would take a couple of days to figure out what to do. This may be a good sign as they know how serious this is.
