Exclusive: Obama Attorney Threatens Distinguished Veteran on Obama Birth Certificate Issue: Why?

FamilySecurityMatters.org ^ | April 15, 2009 | Margaret Calhoun Hemenway

[Red Steel]

After the flippant dismissal by U.S. Circuit Court Judge James Robertson of the lawsuit to attempt to determine whether Barack Obama is constitutionally eligible to serve as President, D.C. attorney John Hemenway received a letter from a lawyer representing Barack Obama and Joe Biden, his Vice President.  (Hemenway had enjoined the suit launched by Hillary Clinton's ally, Philip Berg, the former Deputy Attorney General of Pennsylvania and attorney Lawrence Joyce of Arizona, in an attempt to force President Obama to disclose his birth records, currently being protected against public scrutiny by the Obama legal team at a reported cost of as much as one million dollars.)  The entire letter, written by Obama attorney Robert F. Bauer, states the following:

 

“I represent President Barack Obama and Vice President Joseph Biden. I write to request that, in light of the District Court’s March 24, 2009 Rule 11 order in Hollister v. Soetoro, No. 08-2254, you withdraw the appeal filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, No. 09-5080. For the reasons stated in Judge Robertson’s order, the suit is frivolous and should not be pursued.

               

Should you decline to withdraw this frivolous appeal, please be informed that we intend to pursue sanctions, including costs, expenses, and attorney’s fees, pursuant to federal Rule Appellate Procedure 38 and D.C. Circuit Rule 38.”

 

Mr. Hemenway's response to the letter was a promise to "write and protest and attack those against the demand that Obama show proof of his birth, and I will continue to do anything I can think of doing that might perhaps deter or injure those who are opposed to “transparency” and “openness” and honesty in governmental operations—all those good and vague promises that Obama threw out in speeches read from his teleprompter."

 

Mr. Hemenway added, "The lawyer for Obama, Robert Bauer, has abused his privileges as an attorney, because I can regard his premature (and totally inaccurate) threats to seek some sanction against me as a threat to keep me from performing my duty to my client.  It won’t work and he will soon see that it has not worked to intimidate me."  In his opinion, "many judges and other officials are simply crassly violating their oaths of office.  Since I had been in the Department of State and served in Moscow for two years, I am mindful of an expression used by the Russians: “Nada dakazat’ kulak!”  (You must show them your fist!)"

  

Hemenway also pledged:

 

“…to appeal the slap taken at me (the so-called “reprimand”) by Judge James Robertson who tried unsuccessfully to label our efforts as “frivolous” but who did not have the guts to sanction me under Rule 11.  (This would have given me—and others engaged in this important battle —standing in the Court of Appeals.)  I will do my duty to Colonel Hollister, who technically is a client, even though I never agreed initially to follow the case in the Court of Appeals.  The military, as Colonel Hollister's interest demonstrates, is quite concerned with the basic issue of ‘legal’ and ‘illegal’ orders originating from a ‘legitimate’ or ‘illegitimate’ commander-in-chief.  Recall that Judge Robertson never did admit attorneys Berg or Joyce to practice in his court, never had a hearing and never examined evidence because he didn't seek any.  The Judge gave the impression that his decision was predicated solely on ‘blogging and twittering’.“

 

For the many others who have contacted him and expressed interest in this cause, Hemenway invoked Churchill's admonition:  “If a matter of principle is involved in a course of action, then never give up—never – never – never.”  The most important part of that quote is the “matter of principle.”  It was not just a display of the stubborn nature of Churchill.  Following that advice, we can see that here, we have a grave matter of principle. 

 

If Obama can break such a basic, fundamental rule of the Constitution, then what is to keep him from ignoring or suspending other basic rights, such as the Writ of Habeas Corpus

? 

 

Last, Hemenway points out:  “Mr. Bauer claims his father was an attorney in Vienna who opposed the union with Germany (the so-called “Anschluss”) and promoted anti-Nazi political movements while he was in Austria.   He says his father left Austria in 1940.  Very few people left greater Germany after 1939, when the war started.  In any event, if Bauer's background includes such a family history of opposition to anti-rule-of-law monsters, how does he explain his support for this Chicago-styled conspiracy to violate a basic requirement of the United States Constitution?”

Yes, millions of us care. YOU may not care but MILLIONS of us do.

Theres nothing to see hear move on.

Here we have a classic example of left wing newspeakee.

"Theres" note the absence of proper grammer and punctuation, this comes from hours on end of exposure to the DU, where rules such as grammer and punctuation are frown upon as limitations on free speech.

"nothing to see hear" Here we have an example of totalitarian mind control at it's most basic level "nothing to see (or) hear" obviously an attempt at subliminal thought control.

"move on" Not move along but instead Move On as in

Dare I say troll?

[Past Your Eyes]

Well, “your” beating “you’re” drum in the wrong place, bub. “Move on” is right.

[rudman]

The Saudis? The Saudis are with us. How is Obama a Saudi pick? The Bush and Saud family are close and have been for more than 20 years. They stood with us through both Iraq wars. They are governmentally very conservative - and are the only muslim country with its head on straight. Where is your hatred of Saudis coming from?

[Sir Francis Dashwood]

The Saudis are with us.

Speak for yourself...

” we intend to pursue sanctions, including costs, expenses, and attorney’s fees”

Might be very interesting to see what that figure is! That might wake more people up when they see just how much moolah Our Dear Leader has spent fighting this action.

[Canedawg]

rudman is another Nov 2008 signup.

He’s obviously a POS

[Bluebird Singing]

If Obama was indeed an American citizen, he wouldn’t be spending money on high priced attorneys like this scum. I am beginning to wonder if those individuals he presents as his parents were his parents AT ALL! BOTH of them are DEAD!! HOW CONVENIENT!! So are his alleged GRANDPARENTS!!!!

BINGO

He must be stopped in his destruction of the U.S.

[Bluebird Singing]

“Yes, it is true,” she replied. “This is not some idle talk. He is already born, and he is educated and being groomed to be president right now. You will be impressed to know that he has gone to the best schools of presidents. He is what you call ‘Ivy League.’ You don’t believe me, but he is real and I even know his name. His name is Barack. His mother is white and American and his father is black from Africa. That’s right, a chocolate baby! And he’s going to be president.”

Which reminds me - his mimicking the Lord with his quoting the Sermon on the Mount wuz quite offensive.

[SvenMagnussen]

My goodness. Did Hemenway just call Bob Bauer’s father a traitor to his country?

Bauer’s dad was anti-Nazi until the Nazi’s invaded and occupied Austria. Bauer’s dad expatriated himself from an occupied country while other anti-Nazi proponents were being imprisoned and executed.

How did your father get out, Bob?

My comments yesterday:

The pathetic aspect of this, is that the point of the parable is SPIRITUAL, not MATERIAL.
THE ROCK IS JESUS, not an economic strategy.

Yes. He is slimiest of slime. Uh-oh: I’m guess I’m documented right wing extremist.

[happygrl]

Uh-oh: I’m guess I’m documented right wing extremist.

Did you see the 9-11 attack coming?

Did you think something like that was possible?

Do you think that targeting conservatives, for pick up, interrogation and harrassment is impossible ?

Things that make you go hmmmm.....

[Vaduz]

Remove beer goggles and look around.

[Bluebird Singing]

“Do you think that targeting conservatives, for pick up, interrogation and harrassment is impossible ?”

unfortunately, yes.

The stuff with this goon is frightening.

I see him preventing elections in 2010 @ this speed with some catastrophe now.

[HattonFarmer]

You, sir or madam, are incorrect. You are either willfully ignorant or a troll. The upstate returns are not in yet but ‘troll’ is leading by a large margin.

[missnry]

Your beating a dead horse. No one cares.

[Beckwith]

Can you spell dickhead?

[Fresh Wind]

Gosh, wouldn’t it be cheaper for King Obama to pay the 10 bucks for a genuine long form birth certificate from the state of Hawaii rather than paying these high-buck lawyers to threaten citizens?

[Rainwave]

Exactly right, They are more and more like the the Keystone cops meet Salvador Dali meet Che Guevara. I’ve been talking to some Obama people. They are still deeply in Love with this guy and NOTHING will change it. They (Team O)have all the bases covered. There is some great puppet master/s out there. The Obama team is Either silent on issues, or on the offensive, nipping things in the bud. Like they are seeing and doing things ahead of time.

Janet Napolitano said returning war vets are going to be “Bitter, right wing, White...(where does THAT come from?) extremists”. (See today’s Drudge) The Government is ready for unrest by the chain link camps you’ve seen in the desserts and the alerting of the national guard to be ready for unrest this summer. It seems they WANT something to happen, so they can declare marshal law and gather even more power.

As noble and huge the turn out the tea parties are going to be, The Dems are laughing it of. My friends and family who are Obamabots say it is a ploy by FOX news to make Obama look bad. That’s it. Period. Just bitter Republicans who are sore losers. Unfortunately FOX seems to be the only network that has even mentioned the Tea parties.

As gloomy as it all seems, and how entrenched the Democrats are moving their agenda and trying to cripple the Republicans...I have a strange feeling it is all going to backfire on them. I can feel it, something is in the air. Sorry for the long post...but I’m pissed at the gall and chutzpa and disregard for the common man these people are showing. It’s an Obamanation...
