ON APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA
BEFORE: Henderson, Tatel, and Garland, Circuit Judges
These consolidated appeals were considered on the record from the United States District Court for the District of Columbia and on the briefs filed by the parties. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2); D.C. Cir. Rule 34(j). It is
ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that the district court’s orders filed March 5, 2009, and March 24, 2009, be affirmed. The district court correctly dismissed the complaint under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) for failure to state a claim upon which relief could be granted. Hollister v. Soetoro, 601 F. Supp. 2d 179 (D.D.C. 2009). Moreover, the district court did not abuse its discretion in determining that counsel had violated Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)(2) and in imposing a reprimand as the sanction for his part in preparing, filing, and prosecuting a legally frivolous complaint. Hollister v. Soetoro, 258 F.R.D. 1 (D.D.C. 2009). Appellants have provided no reasonable basis for questioning the impartiality of the district court judge. See Liteky v. United States, 510 U.S. 540 (1994).
Frivolous for the “judicial” pee brains.
I don’t think there is anything stopping a court from sending a notice to Congress of facts that should be investigated. Congress would be under no obligation to do anything with it, but a court is not limited from doing that.
There were more than two elector college members that wanted to object, but I understand VP Cheney didn’t ask for objections like he was supposed to.
Congress is spineless. There was no one that wanted alienate a portion of their constituency by challenging Obama’s credentials. That’s why it’s important that congress and the states each put a process in place to verify the eligibility credentials. Because congress can not be relied on in the heat of the moment.
And that’s also why the courts should have at least reviewed the facts and not shirked their responsibility in this case. The courts can’t remove a sitting president. But a court could have ordered the records and determined the truth, and let the public and congress do with it what they wanted.
If you think cheer leading it rough, my dear, try can-can dancing!
‘With all due deference to the separation of powers,’ he began, the court last week ‘reversed a century of law that I believe will open the floodgates for special interests — including foreign corporations — to spend without limit in our elections.’ Alito made a dismissive face, shook his head repeatedly and appeared to mouth the words ‘not true” or possibly ’simply not true’.”...
One never knows...
But did the court in essence acknowledge the existence of this Soetoro person? If they did, then...
Doesn't look like it to me.
Half a million Americans believe Elvis was an alien.
Step One:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
Step Two:
“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
How about this, did the court throw the cast out because there is not such person as Soetoro? That would have been the easiest route to go but if they didn’t then such a person exists. If Soetoro exists, then the usurper used other names which is not what he swore to on his bar application. That also brings into question the adoption and the Indonesian citizenship again.
Why would that be the easiest route, or even necessary? The judge had no problem finding reasons to dismiss the case without even going into whether the defendants name was Obama or Soetoro. The original ruling is here.
“When the Republican Governor of Hawaii, the Republican Attorney General of Hawaii and two appointees of the Republican Governor, the Registrar of Vital Records and the Director of the state Health Department all confirmed Obama’s birth in Hawaii, the courts lost interest.”
But Jamese777 - they never confirmed his birth in Hawaii; they either confirmed he had a birth certificate OR vital records maintained at Hawaii’s DOH.
I did not know, until two weeks ago, that Fukino had told Butterdezillion that Hawaii accepts foreign birth certificates and maintains them in their DOH vaults as vital records. Fukino even sent Butterdezillion the papers to prove that Hawaii does that - now isn’t THAT interesting!
I can’t even begin how disgusted I am with the lack of integrity among our populace. There was an enormous number of people who voted for Obama based merely on the color of his skin, not on the content of his character.
Point of fact: Obama’s initial SSN (1979 and associated with both his name and address of record) was at Occidental College, and it began 999-XX-XXXX.
Now, this type of SSN prefix is reserved for students who are foreign nationals receiving Federal student aid.
If he is a foreign national, then he is guilty of serious crimes against the United States.
If he is a U.S. citizen, then he is guilty of defrading the United States.
In either case, he is a criminal and shouldn’t be President.
obumpa
Hollister v. Soetoro is a Philip Berg case.
Thanks for posting the ruling. It shows that the court lied outright.
“The issue of the President’s citizenship was raised, vetted, blogged, texted, twittered, and otherwise massaged by America’s vigilant citizenry during Mr. Obama’s two-year-campaign for the presidency, but this plaintiff wants it resolved by a court.”
This is as ignorant a statement as could be made. Who’s the authority among the ‘vigilant citizenry’ that allegedly vetted Pres’ent Obama’s citizenship?? The rest of the ruling reads like a personal vendetta rather than a legal summary.
“If you think cheer leading it rough, my dear, try can-can dancing!”
I did once, but I don’t want to talk about that.
parsy, who thinks he got all the negatives. . .

Occidental college: Does anyone know where Obama lived while at Occidental college for his first two years of college?
Just wondering: I read on another thread that a poster claimed that Obama may have lived at the International student dorm at Occidental College because Obama may have registered as a foreign student.
Does anyone know if Occidental in California even had an International dorm when Obama was there for two years, or did foreign students simply live among the non-international student body, and they may have even had non-international students for roommates?
Does anyone know the name and address of Obama's dorm room while he was at Occidental in California for two years? Thanks.
