America does not have a chance. Sickening.
The fix was in at the Democratic National Convention in 2004.
I’d guess that Kennedy has expressed an opinion on not wanting to touch the birther issue.
So Alito and Thomas just found a way to uphold a $20,000 fine for using the Federal Courts for political purposes? If that’s the result, and Taitz is the only “sacrifice” ... sounds like a win-win. Haha.
“No, no ... don’t throw us into the briar patch!”
Michael Newdow might be fined into bankruptcy in the near future.

Very interesting.
When the mighty oppress the weak, in that kind of era —
which side are you on, brother?
Which side are you on?
Regardless of the credibility of the cause, Taitz has been pretty wacky in her legal methods of championing it. She probably deserved the sanction. Too bad there wasn’t a more sane and competent attorney willing to fight for it.
This would not be a good outcome.

More proof that the GOP is really nothing more than “Democrats with jobs”
Probably will turn down all the Prop 8 overturning challenges....and rule against SB 1070...just watch
I have no faith in the Supremicist Court
Two weeks ago, Dr. Taitz filed a motion to reconsider the sanction, When a review of the so-called “Denial” was done, it found that while the “Denial” was allegedly issued, there were no signatures of any Justices nor was there any evidence of the alleged order being logged into the Supreme Court records. This initial motion was addressed to Justice Alito. Then, consistent with Dr. Taitz right to re-file the motion to another Justice she filed it with Justice Thomas. Now, according to her blog, and I show the link here indicating there are still no official signatures from either Justice Alito, or Justice Thomas:

The point here being, once again the “clerks” of the Supreme Court are in full charge of said court and the Justices are mere spectators and onlookers. I suggest the people who log onto this blog to disparage the work of Dr. Taitz without knowing all the FACTS, please rethink their line of reasoning.
Simply put, while there is some kind of evidence the two Justices involved supposedly rejected Dr. Taitz’ motion, there is no evidence either of them have even read the papers, let alone passed some kind of ruling.
Jeeze. Alito and Thomas know only congress can remove a sitting president sworn in by the chief justice. This idea that they could go to court and sue under the claim that Obama was never ever president is silly, especially with his two new SCOTUS justices now on the court.
What now, sue the court claiming that Kagan and Sotomayor are not really justices?
Imagination-land!
We don’t have a chance either but surrender in not an option. I contributed a few times to the patriotic Dr. as she sees where we are headed through her own experience.
Quelle surprise.
Taitz may go down in history as the worst representative for what might turn out, in the end, to be worthy cause.
Alito and Thomas have no tolerance for nonsense.
Taitz’s appeal was worded so rudely there was no way SCOTUS would address it no matter the merits.
If you disagree with me, quote it verbatim and we’ll discuss it.
Last person I put that challenge to wouldn’t.
upheld is the wrong word.
it is denied to review.
from the interviews of taitz, she was a bit (a lot) off the deep end.
What is there about this being Tatiz’s personal case, fighting the sanction against her, and NOT about Obama’s eligibility or birth certificate that posters here aren’t getting?
Frankly, she begged for that sanction. It has nothing to do with any biases or the political orientation of any of the justices. She ‘shopped’ the 2 most conservative justices on the court and both rejected her appeal. She never had a leg to stand on.
Her appeals against the personal $20K sanction are over. All the sympathetic posters should go to her website and donate. She has to pay it. Period. She will be lucky not to lose her license to practice in CA.
It’s really too bad that Ms. Taitz is the public face of the birth certificate issue. I appreciate what she is trying to do, but...she’s just comes across as kinda goofy, and I don’t think she really knows what she’s doing in term of being a shrewd, savvy lawyer. Gives the opposition a reason to paint all “birthers” as whackjobs. I’d like this to be pursued by someone better, but it seems that very few are willing to touch this with a 10-foot pole.
