New bill would require Barack Obama to provide proof of birth to get on Georgia ballot
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution ^ | March 1, 2011 | Jim Galloway

Posted on 03/01/2011 11:11:45 AM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

State Rep. Mark Hatfield, R-Waycross, just handed me a copy of his new bill, HB 401, which would require President Barack Obama to provide certified proof of his birth to the Georgia secretary of state in order to appear on next year’s presidential primary and general election ballots.

The bill has the signatures of 94 members of the 180-member House, including that of one Democrat, Glenn Baker of Jonesboro.

The measure will get its first hearing on Wednesday. Read the bill here.

If you’re a member of the Georgia Ports Authority or Georgia Chamber of Commerce, still attempting to persuade the White House to add a few zeros to that appropriation for the dredging of the Port of Savannah, this is your cue to cut loose an animal howl of frustration.

At minimum, the bill will make for some interesting chatter when the national press comes down to hear Newt Gingrich’s announcement that he’s exploring a GOP run for president.

Hatfield attempted similar legislation last year. From my AJC colleague April Hunt:

“I think the issue with our sitting president has been left unresolved for a significant length of time that people have concerns,” Hatfield said. “But this is not just about our current president. It’s about enforcing the constitutional provisions for anyone who seeks the office of presidency.”

Hatfield’s bill would require certified copies of “the candidate’s first original long-form birth certificate.” Documentation as provided by Hawaii, which has insisted time and time again that Obama was born there, “would not suffice,” Hatfield said.....

Found one! ;-)

The following is from “The Right Side of Life” a pro-Obama is ineligible blog and the reference is to a footnote in a Motion to Dismiss submitted by the defense in the original Hollister v Soetoro lawsuit.

“I just received a copy of the Motion to Dismiss in Philip Berg’s recent case, Hollister v. Soetoro. Aside from the usual defensive arguments, the following footnotes are very telling:

Regarding Berg’s claim of ineligibility:
1 President Obama has publicly produced a certified copy of a birth certificate showing that he was born on August 4, 1961, in Honolulu Hawaii. See, e.g., Factcheck.org, “Born in the U.S.A.: The truth about Obama’s birth certificate,” available at http://www.factcheck.org/elections-2008/born_in_the_usa.html (concluding that the birth certificate is genuine, and noting a contemporaneous birth announcement published in a Honolulu newspaper). Hawaii officials have publicly verified that they have President Obama’s “original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.” See “Certified,” Honolulu Star Bulletin, Oct. 31, 2008. This Court can take judicial notice of these public news reports. See The Washington Post v. Robinson, 935 F.2d 282, 291 (D.C. Cir. 1991); Agee v. Muskie, 629 F.2d 80, 81 n.1, 90 (D.C. Cir. 1980).”

When did White House Counsel, Robert F. Bauer become a judge? Wouldn't that be a conflict of interest?

The truth of the matter is that government integrity is so compromised that we have no idea what is true or not true, regardless of what any government entity has told us, because they’ve already been documented with so much records manipulation, deception, lying, and law-breaking.

These are times of rapid change.

Butter. Yet again, thanks for the solid case posted as to why the kenyan simply could be eligible for the POTUS. One thing not enough of us mention is the fact that Pelosi was most instrumental in signing off on the two different DNC documents. She should end up in prison eventually. But that is for another day in the future. Getting late at my end so do both have a great upcoming day.

LOL...I am reading one of his POS books Dreams from My Father, and there it is, on page 26:

"...I discovered this article, folded away among my birth certificate and old vaccination forms, when I was in high school..."

So...he says he has it.

Reading this tripe he supposedly wrote is like water torture, worse than reading Alinsky's Rules For Radicals.

The fact is, most of the people here are sick and tired of your comments and lies.

That can't be said often enough. The Site Pest has worn out his welcome. Sooner or later he will rub the wrong person the wrong way and it will be zot time. Till then, he is an annoyance who just can't seem to comprehend that no one wants him around.

Bauer is still White House Counsel. The US District Court Judge in Hollister v Soetoro was the infamous James Robertson who incurred the wrath of the “Obama is ineligible” movement by issuing a sarcastic and ridiculing opinion and ordering Hollister’s attorney to show cause why he should not be fined for wasting Judge Robertson’s time with nonsense.
Judge Robertson was most infamous for writing in his dismissal opinion that “the President’s citizenship was raised, vetted, blogged, texted, twittered, and was otherwise massaged by America’s vigilant citizenry...,”

I hear ya, believe me.
But you should see the amount of Freeper mail that I get and the number of posts that are addressed to me. I consider it to be rather rude not to respond.

All the more reason to wonder why he had a forgery created for the world to see. What is he hiding?

This Court can take judicial notice of these public news reports.

It doens’t mean squat requesting judicial notice of an item not subject to judicial notice is just plain BS.
If it meant anything plaintiff’s could request the judge take judicial notice of the public news reports stating Obama was born in Kenya or Indonesia.

The only requirement that Nebraska currently has for a name getting on the Presidential ballot is the word of the DNC or RNC certifiers. The constitutionality of the election for the whole State of Nebraska depends on somebody who would wipe her a$$ with the Constitution if she thought it would serve her purposes.

If anybody has any questions of whether Nebraska’s election law needs to be changed they need look no farther than that simple fact.

I was thinking about how much Terry Lakin was willing to give monetarily just for the ability to look himself in the mirror each day knowing that he did everything in his power to protect and defend the US Constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic, as he swore to do. I don’t know how much he made but if he had even 10 more years of military service left that would be at least a million dollars in lost wages, probably another million in lost retirement benefits, the $800,000 of his own personal savings, and I don’t know how much in health/medical benefits etc. I’d say 3 million is probably on the low end for an estimate.

Regardless of what anybody thinks about the wisdom of what Lakin did, I think any one of us has to respect a person who considers their own oath worth at least $3 million of their own money to be able to say in good conscience they kept the oath.

EVERY YEAR for the last 25 years Nancy Pelosi has made that same oath:

“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God. “

And to keep that oath she - one of the richest members of Congress - not only wouldn’t put her money where her mouth is, but in all her travels using military escort and drinking lots of booze on the taxpayer dime she couldn’t even muster up the guts to tell Barack Obama to stuff it unless he agreed to let her see his legal documentation.

Pelosi is the media’s beloved queen, and Lakin sits in jail. It makes me physically ill.

I have a photo of Lakin and his family on my refrigerator and I pray for them every day. They’re going to be fine, whatever comes, just because of who they are. The one I probably should have on my refrigerator door is Pelosi, and pray every day for her repentance before it’s too late.
