Thank God for Orly

Obama agrees wholeheartedly.

It's depressing because it shows a complete inability of some people to get past their personal agendas and actually learn from the past.

Kind of like a birther lawyer getting a parking ticket when filing their fourteenth appeal and then the true believers here titter excitedly about how that should now give them standing.

Or someone going on and on about how this issue never goes anywhere because the American system is completely corrupted, but somehow getting Obama out of office will make everything better.

The problem is not that the American system is completely corrupted, it is that system requires an adversarial stance between the 2 political parties to be active over any issue for a real investigation.

Resolution 511 proves that adversarial relationship is deactivated over the Obama eligibility issue.

Orly's continued resistance is important not because it will remove Obama, that would require 5 out 9 SCOTUS votes to follow a path that will lead to serious political consequences, but because she may expose this danger to the republic as a side effect if SCOTUS decides to over rule Land on appeal and indicate a new judge should handle a reactivated case.

Obama exposed is still dangerous, but I would much rather have him exposed while a loyal American like SecDef Gates is still at the helm.

On the standing issue, who knows, maybe the sanctions will fail to pass the sniff test for Justice Kennedy. If the appeal is successful there is much more chance of light being shone on some unsettling details e.g. If Obama’s SSI has the Connecticut SSN on it - that along with other document irregularities would indicate its a fake. At the very least we would have a watergate-type cover up going on.

The questuiuoin is whether the conservatives on the court want toplay politics right back to Obama, who has highly politicized many of their recent decisions. Hard to say. I hope they play.

Orly doesn't realize it, but the question of Obama's eligibility is not one she can even raise in this Petition. Her client dropped the case (and fired Orly as her lawyer). The only issue Orly can appeal is the sanctions award against her, and she was not sanctioned for bringing the eligibility suit-- she was sanctioned only for falsely accusing the judge of misconduct in her motion for reargument (she accused the judge of secretly meeting with Eric Holder, on a day when Holder was in Los Angeles and the judge was in Georgia).

The only issue the Supreme Court would have jurisdiction to rule on, if they did grant certiorari, is whether Orly's accusations against the judge are sanctionable. They clearly are, so the Court is no way going to hear this case.

You birthers have faced nothing but defeat, after defeat, after defeat in the courts, and yet every time Taiz or some other incompetent lawyer on your side files another suit or appeal, you get your hopes up.

Why is it you people have such difficulty learning from experience?

Give thanks that "That Clown" Orly is keeping it alive.

I suppose I should be thankful for the entertainment and comic relief she provides.

Probably because folks hope some of the Justices on SCOTUS might remember their oaths to defend the constitution from all enemies both foreign and domestic.

At some point they will guess themselves what Obama is and what he intends to do, and indeed their own eventual fate under the “new order.”

Just pray they find a legal technicality to help Orly and trip up the budding dictator.

Although I see you “converse” with the gang fairly regularly...a FReindly note of suggestion...don’t give the Obots the Kool-Aid they desire. Their only intention on the eligibility threads is to attempt to dissuade, discredit or otherwise libel the non Obots.

I take your point. But I find it ironic that the very legal system the American Lawyers Guild uses so skillfully is the one that will be switched off when their ultimate political fantasy system is born as the US republic dies out.

As for going too far, which I think you hint at, what other label can you apply to a man who describes the freedoms granted to the people of the US by the constitution as “Negative Liberties?”

I believe it was Doc Savage who said...

"Liberalism is a mental disorder."

It truly is astounding.

So let's see.

Either Taitz is incompetent, can't behave like a lawyer, and is in so far over her head she doesn't even know which end is up...

or

JUSTICE THOMAS IS AN OBOT!!! A TRAITOR TO THE CONSTITUTION!!!

I guess it wasn't very possible after all that the Supreme Court would take this up to relieve Taitz of her well-earned sanctions, a point we naive people with actual training in the law did make.
