SCOTUS message to the American people
January 20, 2009
On Wednesday, January 14, 2009, at the invitation of Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, Also Known As Obama (hereafter known as AKA) and his sidekick, Joseph Biden, paid a visit to the United States Supreme Court, spending the better part of an hour sequestered in secrecy with eight of the nine United States Supreme Court Justices. Justice Alito was not in attendance.
According to an Associated Press release, written by Mark Sherman,
"When employees glimpsed Obama on his way out, a loud cheer went up in a building that exudes decorum."
Can one surmise the Supreme Court ecstatic over the illegitimate ...
The invitation of Chief Justice Roberts, the behind closed door meeting with a man who is the subject of lawsuits coming before the Supreme Court concerning his eligibility to the office of president, was not only inappropriate but leaves questionable the judicial conduct of the justices with whom AKA and Biden met.
Judges are to refrain from appearances of impropriety and partiality; from engaging in activities that compromise the mandate of an independent judiciary. According to the AP piece,
"Eight years ago, President George W. Bush did not visit the court before he took office, but the circumstances were to put it mildly unusual.
In December 2000, the court decided the case of Bush v. Gore by a 5-4 vote, ending the legal battle over the contested Florida election and effectively sealing the presidency for Bush."
The circumstances surrounding AKA are just as "unusual", considering the question of eligibility because of his refusal to produce the one document that would prove (or disprove) his eligibility to the office of president his long form vault copy Hawaii birth certificate a document that ....

If this is true, then the Tree of Liberty is in dire need of watering.
Seems as though all the suits in DC are empty. Either eunuchs or evil.
Wish I could say that I still have great hope in SCOTUS. I still can not imagine Justice Thomas, Alito, Scalia and Roberts letting this issue go unanswered. If Monday brings no comments from SCOTUS on the Orley case, I will know they are turning their backs on our Constitution.
If DC thinks a cover up won’t create civil unrest, they are in for a sad awakening.
I see the “loophole factor” as being involved.
Think of it from a criminal case perspective. Years ago, say a law was passed that nobody ever broke. Nobody even got around to deciding whose job it was to enforce the law. Then finally somebody breaks the law. In a criminal case, while yes, it is the law, few judges are going to convict, or even try, somebody for breaking it, if nobody even has been determined to be in charge of enforcing the law.
But all hope is not lost. While Obama is going to get over—once—at some point the Supreme Court is going to tell congress that they had better legislatively pass an exception, or there is no way in hell they will let Obama run for re-election, if it comes to that. With a congressional exception that they declare him to be naturally born American, no problem.
More importantly, the SCOTUS will give fair warning to the political parties that they had better vet the heck out of future candidates so this doesn’t happen again. That’s what they are doing right now—crossing the t’s and dotting the i’s.
Yes, this time, the courts let the bank robber walk because of a loophole in the law. But don’t do it again, or else.
Right. It must be emphasized that John Jay's intent about this is not about presidential elections, per se. It is about making sure that anyone who serves as Commander in Chief is a natural born Citizen and without foreign allegiance.
Permit me to hint whether it would not be wise and seasonable to provide a strong check to the admission of foreigners into the administration of our national government ; and to declare expressly that the command in chief of the American army shall not be given to, nor devolve on any but a natural born citizen.
You are correct. It was 7-2.
Has everybody forgotten the time that Scalia and Cheney went hunting while the Supreme Court was deliberating a case against Cheney? What is illegal is for a judge to talk to a party about the case.
Seeing as-- unlike Bush v. Gore-- the Supreme Court has not agreed to hear any case against Obama, I'm sure whatever Obama and the Justices talked about, it wasn't the cases against Obama.
Meeting with Obama is not illegal. Talking to him about his birth certificate would have been illegal. I'm sure Roberts did not hand Obama the grounds to have Roberts impeached.
That's why Conservatives stay home while Liberals bus people all over.

No, conservatives won’t riot like liberals. But they aren’t staying home either.
Watering
my foot.
Quick, grab some seeds from the fire and replant them in a guarded secret location
QUICK!
Usually the roots will revive, if the tree be strong...
There is that, alright.
Strong?
. . . good question.
“But don’t do it again”’
Yea I will make note of that. I am sure that will prevent further deliberate violations of the constitution in the future.
Always bears repeating to the libs 7 - 2.
It might be a popular belief, but it is not workable ... the first legitimate lawsuit over a bill or EO Barry signs into law will end the stonewalling. You would think a subpreme court judge would know that ... but then we’re talking about Roberts the rube.
I agree it stinks. But it is the way the court works, especially when dealing with the president and presidency.
In all practical ways, the president is above the law, and the court treats him as such. The SCOTUS is still reeling from when FDR threatened to pack and dilute them, and remain to a great extent a 19th Century institution. And a timid one at that.
You really want to try to sell this fib given your posting history at FR?... “Our guy lost period.” Bwahahahahaha
He cannot be covered up - not when Obama is making such a big deal about NOT covering up what Presidents have done. Let s push this "transparency" of his as far as it will go.
Which is worse: civil arrest or a major terrorist attack that's coming in six months?
I concur. Bambi will resign once it reaches critical mass.
