I have all due respect for Liberty University as well as Regent University!
1) You say: “But neither would I tell a client to fight a battle they had no power to win, even if their cause was just.”
What do you think George Washington and a “few” others of his peers would have said to that opinion about 235 yrs ago?
2) You say: “But the reality is our system will not eject this man from the White House until we have the numbers and the players to do it. The cancer is too deeply embedded. Obama is acting as a dictator. He will ignore whatever the judiciary does and will claim immunity while in office even against felony charges.”
You are then contradicting yourself!!
What makes you think then that this dictator will leave the Whit-Hut even if he was to be voted out, hmmm??
And as said before, I don’t see any candidate from the present Rino-farm who are able to unseat him???
3) You say: “And we will not win anything real if we end up replacing one leftist with another leftist, just because the second leftist is really good at attacking the first leftist. Can you see how that just doesn’t make sense?”
No I can’t see that making any sense because of what I mentioned above, the “permanent” dictatorship that you yourself are alluding to and too weak candidates from the Rino-farm. Your thinking that’s there is nothing to be done is a total loosing battle that Churchill during his WWII’s V-sign would have scorn you for. We are NOT talking about an attorney’s client, we are talking about the American People being screwd, ethically and morally. You need to go back to Liberty to brush up on those two issues. And IF it comes to chose between two “leftist” I would chose the least evil of them!!!
Here’s some thoughts from an “American Thinker” and as a business owner, I’m one of those!!!!

I think you are misunderstanding me. I do not see this situation as hopeless, and that is why, unlike you, I am fighting on both fronts, as I said to you earlier. It is right to keep fighting to get to the bottom of his eligibility and other issues of potential criminal fraud. Absolutely agree with you. I just don’t see a mechanism in place where that will get him out of office.
However, that does not mean I think he is so entrenched he cannot be removed by other legal means. One of the true strokes of genius in the way the Founders set up our system is that the electoral process, once it becomes entrenched, is nearly impossible to stop. It carries enormous power that we are a culture designed for and accustomed to frequent, periodic elections. There are ways for a would-be dictator to try to mess that up (phony crises and martial law come quickly to mind), but if the population is on to the game, those tricks become worthless and the good guys can still win without firing a shot.
Let me tell you a little story. My dad, before he became a Christian, was fascinated with performance magic, you know, pulling rabbits out of hats and all that, and he became skilled at it himself. Then, when he became a Christian, he felt that all such showmanship was intentional falsehood, and he gave it up. But he did more than that. He would also go to magic shows with his friends and during the performance he would loudly describe to them all the misdirection and psychological trickery that the magician was using to create his illusions, telling them exactly where and when to look to see the sleight of hand. This had the effect of destroying the illusion, and it didn’t put the magician in a very good mood either. But my dad and his friends were having a great time.
The left is trying now to pull off the biggest disappearing act since David Copperfield seemed to make the Statue of Liberty vanish. They are trying to disappear our Constitution and the government we have with much blood, sweat and tears built upon it. But they can only do so if we can be tricked into looking in the wrong direction. That’s how the Statue of Liberty trick worked. The audience was on a rotating stage, and they were tricked into looking for Lady Liberty where she was not, even though she was in fact still standing close by, where she had always stood.
Our liberty in this country does not depend on the rise or fall of a single person. That is a misdirection. Our liberty does not depend on the recovery of a single piece of paper, or having to weather a storm of artificially manufactured financial crises, or the skill of used car salesmen like Trump trying selling themselves as people of courage and our only possible salvation. All misdirections. Our freedom depends first and most on our fidelity to truth and the God of truth. If our eyes are open, and looking in the right direction, we will not fall for the magician’s tricks. We will not be capable of being manipulated into giving up the elections or the conservative candidates we need to get back on track. That is what will work. And we can do that. There is still time.
As for Churchill and not giving up, I hope you now understand I am nowhere near giving up. I am merely emulating Churchill in my own little way, by urging that our warfare be directed to those battles most likely to achieve real victory. Churchill was a brilliant student of military history. He understood better than most the strategic value of spending limited resources where they are likely to do the most good. He once noted that Pickett’s Charge was among the most furious fights in military history, and might have ended in success, but for “a lack of further reserves.” See If Lee Had Not Won the Battle of Gettysburg by Winston Churchill.
You see, Churchill understood not only the importance of fighting the critical battles but also the science of how to win them. It was Churchill who dissuaded FDR from his urgent desire to launch a premature invasion of France. Germany might have won had we followed our passions over our reason. Churchill believed in fighting spirit and victory, yes, but he also worked within the real limits of the situation. He did not believe in suicide missions. Neither do I. They are not a path to victory.
You may not want to hear this, but I do know how the legal system works, and it is my sincere belief that neither Orly Taitz nor any other legal effort will unseat Obama, or Barry, or whatever his real name is. The best structure we have in place to get him done and out of there is a good old fashioned election where we don’t let ourselves be tricked out of our conservative vote. That’s all I’m saying.
You can respond if you like. I have work responsibilities I must get to, so I may or may not respond in timely fashion. For my part, I think I have said all I care to say for now.
Peace,
