You asked — “Star, what are you afraid of on this Birth Cert. issue. You are dogging every thread with negativity. Are you embarassed or something?”

—

Just think — absolute truth, relativism, post-modernism, political expediency, truth by consensus — and you’ll understand...

:-)

The Constitution is nothing more than a piece of paper with a bunch of words on it. What’s more important is what “the people” think about the Constitution and absolute truth...

Scalia: 'Constitution Not Living Organism'

Scalia said he reads the text of the Constitution in a literal manner, a method in which the "plain and ordinary meaning" of the text guides interpretation. "Words mean what they mean."

[rockinqsranch]

Agree with you both. The discussion, and the activities with the court actions have broken out of the “New Media” territory and into the “MSM”. Whether viewed positively, or negatively an answer is required, and the ball is currently in the hands of the Supremes.

It would seem to me the SCOTUS hasn’t much choice but to rule on the matter by the fact this is now a priority issue Nationally no longer maintained strictly by what the Left alleges as “conspiracy nuts” on the Internet.

[Star Traveler]

Oh..., maybe one more thing (personally related to me... regarding these posts)... obsessive/compulsive... LOL...

[mkjessup]

Yeah, whatever. This is just more of the same. This case will meet the same fate as Donofrio, watch and see.

[iopscusa]

LOLs I think? You know the USSR has had several different constitutions, they each served 1 master. We almost had the same thing in the USA during King Roosevelts rule.

Hm, let's add to your list:

“It takes 4 votes to put it on the docket. I wonder which of the conservatives voted against Donofrio?”

Since it is almost certain that Scalia read Cort’s brief before the 5th, is it not possible that the conservatives, when they met on the 5th, discussed the issues and said the brief filed to Scalia was more appropriate to hear?

Maybe this could be seen in a positive light. Even if the electorial college meets before the case is heard....there is no reason to assume that IF the court heard the case and IF they ruled in favor of the plaintiff....Mr. Obama could be forced to vacate the Oval Office. Of course, then we would have Biden for president, but he would be a lame duck from the get go.

Ping!! Wrotnowski’s case is now going to the Supreme Court’s full conference. I hope it is there at the same time Berg’s will be discussed.

Nothing will come of it. They’ve already rejected one case.

SCOTUS hates to get invovled in politics—and this would surely be seen to be political. They will defer to the political process. If the Democratic party failed to properly qualify their candidate and the Fed Election Commission wouldn’t act, they are going to leave it alone.

Finally, SCOTUS can read tea leaves as well as anyone else and doesn’t want the country to erupt in riots that would make Watts seem like child’s play.

We should cease all threads on this as useless.

VERY INTERESTING! (And nice work on the formatting!)

Speaking of the Clinton machine, I’ve been wondering why, if Hussein’s citizenship, BC, etc., are problems, Hillary and her thugs didn’t pursue this to the bitter end during the primaries. They’re ruthless and thorough. If Hussein was actually unqualified, wouldn’t that have surfaced months ago, compliments of PIAPS? Just wondering.

Still praying he won’t be sworn in...

Felipe de Jesus CALDERON Hinojosa & Schwarzenegger for US el presidente 2112! Yep in 2112. They can run the pro Gay/Green Governator with the Presidente of Mexico for co el Presidentes of the 57 states.

With the voters in Mexico, South America, Canada, Europe, Iran and "new voters" in the Former USA, the Governator can co presidente with the Mexican Presidente for life.

They will win by 200 million votes, and that settles that. No one will challenge either one including a lot of Freepers as they will fear riots if the constitution is considered. Just move on to 2040.

“Finally, SCOTUS can read tea leaves as well as anyone else and doesn’t want the country to erupt in riots that would make Watts seem like child’s play.”

If the USSC is willing to let the Constitution get trashed, we’ve lost it all anyway, and were inviting a revolution...

Not Bad. You almost got it all in. But you forgot the part where we're supposed to get busy now promoting conservative principles, fighting his policies and laying a foundation for 2012.

I'm sure with a little more practice you will be able to get it right. Meanwhile we will all continue to exercise our Constitutional rights and encourage others, including you, to do the same!!!

Even if SCOTUS doesn’t hear cases that have been denied at the lower level, eventually there will be a judge in state court or a lower federal court that will side with the plaintiffs. There are too many cases and somewhere a judge will agree on the merits. The Justices can then let it stand or agree to hear the case themsleves.
