I note you’ve purported to agree with the interpretation of NBC put forth by those of us you stoop to characterize with the derivative “birthers,” but you’re opposed to every application of semantic originalism that would possibly support such an agreement.

Name the case that has been “lost” by “birthers,” by the way. I’m under the impression that they’ve been dismissed due to lack of standing, or in this instance, failing to state a claim.

Name the case that has been “won” by those in opposition to “birthers.” You can’t. The matter remains unsettled, despite your Johnny-Come-Lately efforts, ill informed though they may be.

Hmmm... when you leave court without anything gained, it sure seems like losing. When a court refuses to listen to your case, that isn’t exactly winning. And Obama was seated as President, and is performing as President right now.

I’m not a lawyer. I’m ex-military. A campaign that ends with lives lost but no ground gained is a loss, not a victory. And when someone like Judge Lambert mocks you in court, and your opponents get to do anything they wish...well, you can call that a victory.

But as a matter of practical living, it is a loss!
