Strategy of Supreme Court — take case for review, and deny without comment — end of story... LOL...

Haven’t you seen the pattern yet?

Will it get tossed?

Yes.

The fact Thomas and Scalia have distributed it speaks well for the merits. Otherwise they would have been round filing them as fast as they came in.

That argument makes no sense at all.

Donut’s case is garbage and had no chance. Others in the pipeline may actually have a chance to get to the issue since they do not have absurdity larded upon ridiculousness as does Donuts whom I believe is actually working for Obama.

Why else would on file a case “against” him which contains an easily shot down claim regarding Obama’s father’s citizenship overriding American law on this matter AND argues that McCain is ineligible.

Scalia has just stomp on Obama, the Main Stream Media, and other naysayers d%&*s after the SCOTUS denied Donofrio case. He took the Hot Air and deflated those Green Footballs coming out of their heads.

Well, maybe one of these suits re Obama and the “natural born Citizen” clause will see the light of day with the SCOTUS.

This is an indication that the Donofrio conference netted 3 votes. I doubt Justice Scalia would have referred it if the first case had gotten only 1 or 2 votes.

IMO.

Even if they accept it Dec. 12, there certainly won’t be any headway by Dec. 15. The electors’ votes will be cast for Obama and Biden, and that means Biden would be sworn in as president if Barack Obama were found unqualified, yes?

‘Is this the one that was sent to the anthrax lab?’

Cort’s original filing went to the anthrax lab, but then he drove down to DC himself to deliver another copy.

I would like to thank Leo Donofrio for his yeoman work, but whoever put up post # 19 on this thread has an obvious spelling problem with the word “Court.”

why is it stronger?

***

I read Wrotnowski’s brief earlier today - among other things, he is claiming judicial error at BOTH the Connecticut Superior Court AND the Connecticut Supreme Court ...

They denied his application because they said he had no standing under Connecticut General Statutes Section 9-323 ...

Trouble is, he DID NOT file his application under that statute ...

SCOTUS MIGHT have to kick this back to the Connecticut courts ...

I was just going to say that Donofrio must have gotten at least two votes, Thomas and Scalia, but probably your guess of three may be likelier.

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

Aside from the fact that ignoring this issue is ignoring the Constitution, I hope SCOTUS understands that this issue is not going to go away, and if they refuse to act there will be bad feelings, and perhaps criminal revelations, during the next four years. The clinton machine couldn’t stop all the leaks, and I doubt whether the Obama machine will, either.

The more time goes on today knowing LDonofrio’s cause was denied without comment, the sicker I feel.

I think I’m going to have to write to the SCOTUS. This issue needs resolution, once and for all.

Pray for America.

Donofrio didn’t get any votes. When a Justice dissents from an order, it shows up on the Order List. (There were two such orders in the list today - Stevens dissented).

Donofrio’s order shows no dissent. Thus, there was no vote for granting the application or treating the application as a writ.
