Kennedy on Wednesday denied without comment an appeal by Philip J. Berg, a Pennsylvania attorney, that claims Obama is either a citizen of Kenya or Indonesia and is ineligible to be president because he is not a "natural-born citizen" of the U.S. as required by the Constitution.

The AP continues with its usual abysmally wrong reporting.

The docket shows the opposite: the main Berg case has now been scheduled for conference on January 9th, not denied. What was denied were two other motions (08A391, 08A505) under the main case (08-570).

Is there anyway that the main post can be altered to include the truth? The MSM has lied to the people again.

The docket shows the opposite: the main Berg case has now been scheduled for conference on January 9th, not denied. What was denied were two other motions (08A391, 08A505) under the main case (08-570).
