'Congress Satisfied President Qualified To Serve' [End of Judicial Story!

'Congress Satisfied President Qualified To Serve' Judge trashes soldier's eligibility complaint, compares merits to 'Alice in Wonderland'

September 16, 2009

By Chelsea Schilling

Judge Clay Land – the same judge who earlier dismissed a similar case filed by Maj. Stefan Frederick Cook – has rejected another request for restraining order from a medical doctor and Army officer and threatened sanctions against attorney Orly Taitz if she files any future "frivolous" actions with his court.

As WND reported, Capt. Connie Rhodes, a medical doctor and Army officer, filed suit in U.S. District Court in Columbus, Ga., earlier this month, requesting a restraining order preventing her deployment overseas on the basis that the top of the chain of command, President Barack Obama, has not demonstrated himself to be a natural-born citizen under the U.S. Constitution.

Land rejected Rhodes' request for a temporary restraining order today.

"After conducting a hearing on plaintiff's motion, the court finds that plaintiff's claims are frivolous," his ruling states. "Accordingly, her application for a temporary restraining order is denied, and her complaint is dismissed in its entirety.

Furthermore, plaintiff's counsel is hereby notified that the filing of any future actions in this court, which are similarly frivolous, shall subject counsel to sanctions.

He described Taitz as a "self-proclaimed leader in what has become known as 'the birther movement.' … Her modus operandi is to use military officers as parties and have them allege that they should not be required to follow deportation orders because President Obama is not constitutionally qualified to be president."

The ruling states that Taitz is attempting to "press her birther agenda" and references a purported certification...

"Counsel makes these allegations although a 'short-form' birth certificate has been made publicly available which indicates that the president was born in Honolulu, Hawaii on August 4, 1961."

Oh, I see. Congress saw the ‘real’ birth certificate during a closed no-televised, non-recorded, no-notes-take backroom meeting.

Everyone was there. Really judge?

Didn’t Obama’s resolution fail but McCain’s pass?

“the court finds that plaintiff’s claims are frivolous,” his ruling states.”

Sorry judge but I don’t think of the Constitution as frivolous. By the way can we see the birth certificate that you are talking about?

Lawbreakers are not lawmakers..........

This is a violation of the oath to Swear To PROTECT THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, FROM ALL ENEMIES, FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC, SO HELP ME GOD.

Obviously this pledge means nothing to the bulk of congress. That makes them traitors and subject to immediate removal.

Oh good so now the judge can release the name of the doctor that birthed Obama so I can make this much needed charitable donation to the hospital childrens ward where Obama was born.

I am only holding off on this large and much needed donation to the Childrens ward because I want to make sure that the One that brought us Obama is recognized.

I have sent emails to the White House asking for the info and I get no replies. I ask on blogs and websites but no one seems to know the name of Obama’s birth docotr that tiny tidbit of Historical significance can be found on the long Version of any U.S. issued Birth Certificate.

Why would Obama hold that information back from the public? The information could only be used in a positive way so Maybe Obama hates the sick Children at Kapiolani medical center and maybe he doesn’t want them to get much needed upgrades to their childrens ward.

Why are no Congressmen entering Resolutions on the HOuse floor that we honor the Doctor that brought the First Black President and First President from Hawaii into the world. This is an historic time and everything Obama should be recognized.

Please someone answer why this information is so hard to come by?

The 3 Branches of the Federal Government are no longer separate, but are now ONE. If Ole Ben Franklin were alive to see what we've become, he'd be in tears...

Which brings to mind a quote from Mr. Franklin, "When the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic."

I’m an anti-birther, I guess. I believe the man was born in Hawaii.

I also believe that his birth certificate states that he is “White”. They can take their racist name calling and shove it up their collective @$$es.

So...hizzoner and the congress have seen the real BC? But, it’s not important that we, the People, see it?

Bull Puckey! He’s ineligible until proven otherwise.

Perhaps Taitz is getting a little too close to the truth?

Lovely——

A judge who must learn the intricacies of the law cannot see the difference between a “Certificate of Live Birth” and a real, honest to God BIRTH CERTIFICATE.

Our courts need a good housecleaning, IMO.

It doesn't really seem to matter who nominates these guys. Lefties remain lefties and "some" purported conservatives who were nominated by Republicans seem to move leftward after they've been "enlightened" on the bench (or more likely they just hid their pre-existing stupidity-driven leftist tendencies really well beforehand). Just look at David Souter -- he's a textbook example!

“Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.”

John Adams, 1770

Of course that was 1770, and today it is ... 1984!
