The counsel for the election commission claimed the commission’s, by statute only had the jurisdiction to uphold the law and then cited one law, which was that a presidential candidate had to fill out a form and pay the fee. He ignored that a separate statute requires the candidates to declare under penalty of perjury that he is Constitutionally eligible for office. Orly, evidently had NOT cited that statute and was not prepared to make them uphold that part of the law as should have been required. The good part, I guess, is that she has grounds to sue this commission and she has legal standing since her specific objection was not legally satisified by the commission.
All five members of the election commission turned out to be Democrats, according to Orly. I don’t know if that is true or not, but it sure sounds as though the fix was already in.
And it seems things became somewhat exciting post-hearing, per Orly Taitz:
“I gave them the case. I provided all the evidence that he is using a stolen social security number and forged birth certificate and provided all of the information in regard to Minor v. Happersett, Vattel, etc. I probably spoke for half an hour. Afterward, the assistant attorney general presented his case, which was a joke. A five-year-old could have made a better case. He brought the assistant secretary of state and asked, “Well, did Obama fill out the paper?” “Yes.” “Did he pay the $1,000 fee? “Yes.” “OK, here’s my case.” “
“So I did cross-examination, and I told her, “Ma’am, I was born in the Soviet Union. If I were to lie, if I were to commit fraud and fill out a paper saying I am eligible for the presidency and paid you $1,000, would you put my name on the ballot?” And she looked at me with her stupid eyes and said, “Well, ah…ummm…well, ah, if there were a challenge, then I wouldn’t.” So I said, “OK. So everything that you just said with the attorney general is pointless. If there is a challenge, then you cannot put the person on the ballot. So what do you do if there is a challenge?” And I asked her, “If you show the attorney general that Obama is using a stolen social security number and a forged birth certificate, what does he do?” And she was looking at me with big cow eyes and said, “IIIIIIIII don’t know.” And I said, “What do you mean ‘you don’t know?’ What did he do? Did he say he will not put him on the ballot? Did he start an investigation? Or did he hide it, sweeping it all under the rug?” and she had nothing to say. So he was saying, “Well, he filled out the paper, and Biden came over and gave us a $1,000 check…” “
“So I stood up and told them, “Ladies and gentlemen of the committee, you have all the evidence that the paperwork was filled out fraudulently. If you allow him on the ballot in the state of New Hampshire, you are aiding and abetting forgery, fraud and treason. You will be criminally complicit.” “
“As they stepped out, everybody mobbed the secretary of state and attorney general. They were screaming at them. I’ve never seen anything like this. Particularly women…women were screaming, “How could you do this to us?! How could you allow him on the ballot? Where is your decency?” They were screaming. So the committee said, “Here’s our attorney. He has something to say.” So the attorney said, “Well, according to the law, the candidate is supposed to fill out a form and pay $1,000. Obama filled out the form and paid $1,000, so he’s on the ballot.” “
“Everybody jumped to their feet. They were screaming and yelling and saying, “Traitors! You’re traitors! You have no decency! You have no honesty! You’re committing treason!” It was huge. Cameras were rolling, and they had to call security. (Rep.) Harry Accornero started yelling at to the chair of the committee and the corrupt attorney, and the attorney, Brad E. Cook, said, “Representative Accornero, you are out of order.” And Accornero said, “No, you are out of order; you are committing treason. You have to face the people of the state of New Hampshire, and you better not get out of the house without a mask!” “
“I’ve never seen anything like it. People were so mad that I thought, “In another minute, they’re going to bring a rope and start hanging them all.” Representative Carol Vita kept getting right in the face of the assistant attorney general; she was yelling and screaming at him.”
[William Gardner, SoS of New Hampshire, has been serving at that post since 1976.]
Excellent post. Obama has to swear he is eligible to hold the office of POTUS, yet the application accepted was submitted by Biden.
