Thank you. It’s a bright sunshiney day again.
Dad is sleeping in, so I’ll ask you two. Doesn’t discovery happen before oral arguments? When will the AZ amicae be triggered?
Woo Hoo! Over here!
...and yea! for me for making to the thread before the trolls and BOHICA Boys Club.
Thanks for the update! Many thnaks to Hoosiermama, BP2, FreeMan and others who have been working so hard plus keeping us up to date. :-) Woo hoo.
Also thanks to Berg, Orly, Pidegeon, Leo, Cort, Plains Radio, FR and many others.
Orly is incredible and tireless. She should be Gov of CA. She could tell Arnuld in an Russo-Arunld accent “get out of here.” ;-) Sorry I am a bit giddy.
Call me a “Certified Birther.”
Finally! Some good news this morning.
What's the question - corn or no corn?
LOL! It is funny how the usual suspects come out of the woodwork at the same time. My guess is they are waiting to get their talking points fax or emails.
Anyone want to bet? I say one will pop up in 20 minutes or less.
As HooMa says they will be very quiet. ;-)
It does sound like good news, and I also think its time to propose the idea of having Orly nominated to a higher level in our next administration, I do not know the specific chain of events required but it appears to me anyway she would make a very good representative in our government, an adviser say to the next Attorney General?
Thanks to Hoosiermama for being our official transcriber.

The Petition was denied at the SCOTUS for procedural reasons. BUT, there are things happening with this, and all of Berg's cases which are very encouraging!
and anyone else notice how BIDEN is with Obama for every announcement, signing, or swearing in? Hmmmm..... |
It IS strange that they haven’t shown up yet. I thought that maybe they needed to decipher the legalese but that wouldn’t stop them from the usual, “this is a waste of time, we have to move on” crap. Maybe they really are organized and they are being prepped on how to respond to changing circumstances.
All I know is that it’s very pleasant when we constitutionalists have a thread to ourselves!
It is unusual.....hmmmmmmm
Sis has also pointed out that this didn’t happen until Hillary was sworn in.....hhhhmmmm.
Ditto that!
