"Birther" Lawsuit Bounced: Judge rips "improper and unethical" conduct of lawyer Taitz
The Smoking Gun ^ | 10/29/09

Posted on 10/30/2009 8:04:26 AM PDT by Behind Liberal Lines

OCTOBER 29--A federal judge today dismissed a lawsuit brought by individuals claiming that Barack Obama was born in Kenya and, as a result, does not meet the qualifications to be president.

Along with bouncing the lawsuit, U.S. District Court Judge David Carter eviscerated the controversial lawyer representing the "birthers" who sued Obama. In a 30-page order filed today, Carter stated that he was "deeply concerned" that attorney Orly Taitz "may have suborned perjury through witnesses she intended to bring before this court."

Carter, who was appointed to the federal bench in 1998 by President Bill Clinton, noted that he had received "several sworn affidavits" showing that Taitz "asked potential witnesses" to lie under oath. The judge also contended that Taitz engaged in "improper and unethical" conduct by encouraging her supporters to phone and write him in an "attempt to influence this Court's decision."

Carter's order, an excerpt of which you'll find below, does not indicate whether Taitz would face any administrative sanctions for her behavior, or whether the perjury allegations were being reviewed by prosecutors.

It is amazing, I can't count the times I've had to present a birth certificate: To register in school, get a passport, driver's license etc. It is amazing the lengths to which this President is going to to keep his hidden.

Because there were rules requiring you to present one for those things. There is no rule requiring a President submit one.

"It is amazing the lengths to which this President is going to to keep his hidden."

But he hasn't. He made it available and photos were posted on the internet.

“Carter, who was appointed to the federal bench in 1998 by President Bill Clinton”

Says it all.

But I believe there are OTHER, more fruitful cases going forward on the Kenyan (?) Fraud.

If I read the decision right. The only persons that Carter allowed might have had standing were the other candidates. And even these he wondered where to draw the line. But he went on to say, it didn't matter, because the court couldn't remove a sitting president. I didn't think he allowed for the military to have standing. Although I thought the logic was convoluted. He blasted the officers who had standing order, for waiting until they were ordered to deploy. But then said all the others only had hypothetical damages. Seems disingenious to me, to fault both military with and without pending orders. Which leads to questions.

How hard is it to simply order “Defendant must present his birth certificate”!? That’s all that really matters - it will sink or exonerate 0bama!

And those “photos” have since been discredited as being photoshopped forgeries, and very poor forgeries at that.

Even the state of HI can’t remember even issuing a COLB to Ozero. They would not say it was the real thing.

David O. Carter was a marine once. Now he is Hussein’s little b**ch.

You're entitled to believe what you wish to believe, but you're not entitled to your own facts...

It is amazing how some people can refuse to accept something, anything, that contradicts their prejudice.

Both of you prepare to be maligned.

I did not read in her statement that she issued the COLB that is displayed on the internet. She did not endorse it. What facts are you reading?

Without getting into the merits (or lack thereof) of the case, perhaps the plaintiff's attorney shouldn't have behaved unethically (by trying to present perjured testimony and improper ex parte contacts with the court), thereby giving the judge a basis on which to toss the lawsuit?

'Neither one of those refer to the COLB that was presented online."

You mean this Certification of Live Birth?

Yep, you make a good point. Clearly, Barack Obama and his minions went to the trouble of fraudulently creating an Hawaiian Certification of Live Birth because it would be too troubling to mail the $15 to the state have them send him a certified copy - a copy that no less than three official HI state representatives have said - while acting in their official capacity - clearly exists. Yep, that makes all the sense in the world, it has too be fake, just has to be.

When did stupidity and kooky conspiracy theories become en vougue in the conservative movement? I thought that was the provenance of left-wing, dope smoking, peace symblol wearing, Hollywood celebutards.

See post #18 just above, it's applicable to you too.
