A plaintiff on one of the cases challenging Barack Obama's eligibility to be president says federal courts must hear the challenges

Gee, isn't that a shocker. A plaintiff wants doesn't want his case dismissed.

In other news, prosecutors want grand juries to indict their defendants, and football coaches want the calls they challange to be overturned.

"He said his basis for such a statement is the opinion of U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Marshall, who wrote in an 1821 case, Cohens vs. Virginia:"

"It is most true that this court will not take jurisdiction if it should not: but it is equally true, that it must take jurisdiction if it should."

Well, who can argue with that? :-)
