The communists (Democrats) will continue to rule. The socialists (Republicans) will continue to squeal...and the prospect for elections in 2012 are very slim.

Basically end-game....back to hoarding amo and outfitting defensible space as a short to medium term survival strategy.

TSA will be making housecalls shortly.

Right!

The Supremos all part of the ruling class.

There will be no justice in the Republic until all members of the elite are removed from all positions in the government.

It doesn’t help when they get some basic facts wrong. All Kenyans changed to Kenyan citizenship in 1963 with independence, so Obama was only a British citzen for two years. After that, Obama lost his Kenyan citizenship in 1984 by not renouncing US citizenship and swearing an oath of allegiance to Kenya.

“Did you actually read why they denied it? According to the leftist goons on this court to sum it up what they said in a legal way.. it’s too late. Read it!”

I don’t know how to find it!

Could you paste it for me?

Thanks

I guess in layman’s terms, the SCOTUS won’t touch it with a ten foot pole - forget The Constitution.

As I’ve said since 2005, the only way things will really change in the Republic is by way of a Second American Revolution complete with Proscription Lists, trials, exile, imprisonments and/or executions.

This is not my country anymore, and I DETEST what the socialist parasites have done to the USA!

SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
RICHARD CAMERON GAMACHE v. CALIFORNIA
ON PETITION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI TO THE SUPREME
COURT OF CALIFORNIA
No. 10–5196. Decided November 29, 2010
The petition for a writ of certiorari is denied.
Statement of JUSTICE SOTOMAYOR, with whom JUSTICE GINSBURG, JUSTICE BREYER, and JUSTICE KAGAN join,respecting the denial of the petition for writ of certiorari.
After a jury convicted Richard Gamache of first-degreemurder and sentenced him to death, Gamache’s counsel and the trial court learned that during deliberations, court personnel inadvertently gave the jury a videotape that had not been admitted into evidence. During its deliberations, the jury watched the video twice in full and a third time inpart before reaching its verdict. The video showed a police interview of Gamache and his codefendants on the day ofthe murder in which Gamache confessed to the crime in graphic terms. The video showed Gamache explaining, for example, that given the opportunity, he would have shot police officers. 48 Cal. 4th 347, 402, 227 P. 3d 342, 390 (2010) (quoting Gamache on the video as stating, “‘If I figured, if I had any idea I was about to be arrested, I’d have started shooting. . . . See, I figure if I’m going to die,. . . I’m going to take one or two with me’”).
On appeal, the California Supreme Court held that thejury’s access to the tape was indisputably error, citing ouropinion in Turner v. Louisiana, 379 U. S. 466 (1965). 48 Cal. 4th, at 396, 227 P. 3d, at 386 (“‘The requirement that a jury’s verdict “must be based upon the evidence devel-

Anything that could bring Obama down will not be allowed. End of story.

The problem is bringing down Obama without bringing down the country.

Nixon stepped down. Clinton fought.
Think of the crap that 0bama would try.

I think the focus, behind the scenes, will be to minimize the damage and try to prevent it from happening again.

I thought because of a conflict of interest or what ever it is called, KAGAN had to step aside on this because of the work she did for him!

http://hello-newman55.newsvine.com/_news/2010/08/05/4821083-elena-kagan-tied-to-obamas-birth-certificate

“Here’s the connection. Kagan served as solicitor general of the United States from March 2009 until May of this year.

In that role, she legally represented the U.S. government in numerous cases coming before the Supreme Court.

A simple search of the high court’s own website reveals Kagan’s name coming up at least nine times on dockets involving Obama eligibility issues. “

That is not the Kerchner case...it is another case that Cert was denied. Where do you see anything about the Kerchner case and an actual opinion as to why cert was denied?

"Did you actually read why they denied it? "

It was denied without comment.

"JUSTICE SOTOMAYOR, with whom JUSTICE GINSBURG, JUSTICE BREYER, and JUSTICE KAGAN all agree."

As do Scalia, Robberts, Thomas and Alito. To grant a petitioner's writ of certiorari, there only needs to be four Justices in agreement, not five. It's known as "the rule of four".

Interesting. Has this guy technically held citizenship in three different countries?

Moreover, as a student attending Muslim school in Indonesia, the Brit/Kenyan/pseudo-America never became an Indonesian citizen?

With all the state houses and governorships going Republican in 2010,

it shouldn’t be too much effort for “we the people” to “encourage” our states to pass eligibility proof standards for getting on the ballot in 2012.

Even if only 2 states pass these laws, it should be sufficient fodder for his opponent, even his primary opponent, to say

“So, Mr President, why aren’t you going to run in the states of X and Y? Could it be you don’t meet their requirements for being on the ballot?”

“The motion of Western Center for Journalism for leave to file a brief as amicus curiae is granted.”


The Kerchner case was written as if it was designed to fail. It needlessly raised political and standing issues on which it was bound to fail.

It is a mistake to conclude that just because Kerchner failed, SCOTUS will not rule against BO in the future. In fact lower courts are hearing cases challenging BO on a number of issues. (BOcare, immigration et al)

IMHO, SCOTUS would prefer that congress handle the eligibility issue, but if congress fails to act then SCOTUS will have to resolve the issue.

The Kerchner case is listed on page 13. There is no opinion shown as to why cert was denied.
