The Definitive Birther Smackdown
Conservative Review ^ | 04/16/16 | Steve Deace

Posted on 04/17/2016 5:57:25 PM PDT by writer33

There are several resident status classifications in the United States: natural born citizen, naturalized citizen, diplomatic immunity, temporary resident (on a visa), lawful permanent resident (green card holder), and illegal alien. Ted Cruz isn't the child of diplomats, and he was never naturalized as a citizen.

So either he is an illegal alien or a natural born citizen. There is no middle ground. If you don't believe he is a natural born citizen, then you believe there is an illegal alien serving in the U.S. Senate. There is no middle ground. You should immediately call for his deportation.

The Constitution gives explicit power to the Congress to determine citizenship and border enforcement. Since the Constitution never defines explicitly what natural born citizen means, that means beginning with the 1790 Naturalization Act Congress has been defining it — which the Constitution gives Congress the power to do.

Masin didn’t even read the parties briefs.

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court upheld Judge Pellegrini’s ruling and New Jersey Lieutenant Governor Kim Guadagno accepted Administrative Law Judge Masin’s Advisory Opinion. She could have rejected it and barred Ted Cruz from the New Jersey Primary ballot.

The judges play telephone, Masin cites Pellegrini. Masin cites Pellegrini both cite the same law review articles and neither applies law and precedent.

The plaintiff in New Jersey has filed an emergency appeal and the plaintiff in Pennsylvania is going to petition to the U.S. Supreme Court.

I knew about this.

I haven’t heard any details on this.

Since Masin said he hadn’t read the briefs I think there would have to be judicial review.

Masin’s opinion was advisory for the Lieutenant Governor. It is her ruling that will be appealed.

No court and no action of Congress has determined that to be the case.

Which has no bearing on what is the truth.

The courts nowadays are quite the comedy, aren't they?

Where Roberts will side with Obama, because the thought of a "Black President", just gives him orgasms.

According to Ted Cruz, Obama has lost at the Supreme Court UNANIMOUSLY (9-0 and that includes Obama appointees Kagan and Sotomayor) 20 times.

Correct. It only reflects how those particular states will proceed from this point forward, unless reversed on appeal.

Robert's only real ability to wield power is when the vote is within the margin of error. When it's heavily lopsided, Roberts might as well just apply the law as clearly as he can see it, for all the good it will do.

When Roberts can help Obama, Roberts helps Obama, and i'm convinced it is because of what Obama represents in Robert's mind, and not because Roberts is applying the law correctly.

Roberts is demonstrating his own squirrely brand of "Stockholm syndrome."

We get that some states and some courts are cuckoo for coco-puffs, so why do you keep pointing out what kooky courts do?

Their deliberations have no merit. Neither do their conclusions. They have power, but they do not have the correct answers.

The author is an idiot.

Well he writes for Mark Levins' Cruz super PAC so yes he is an idiot, just like his boss. And Ted Cruz was naturalized by the 1934 Naturalization act and follow on legislation. If an act of Congress makes you a citizen you are a naturalized citizen.

Well, only nine months to go until Roberts’ “Stockholm Syndrome” magically disappears!

Here’s a link to a detailed analysis of Roberts’ complete voting record. It turns out that he ranks second only to Scalia in conservatism, beating out Alito and Thomas and of course Kennedy is the least conservative of the Justices nominated by Republican Presidents.

Roberts has a lifetime Segal-Cover rating of 12 where 0 is extreme conservatism and 100 is extreme liberalism.

Just because some idiot posting on the internet thinks that court rulings have no merit doesn’t make it so.
Article 3 of the Constitution clearly states that “judicial Power shall extend to all Cases, in Law and Equity, arising under this Constitution, the Laws of the United States, and Treaties made, or which shall be made, under their Authority;—to all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls;—to all Cases of admiralty and maritime Jurisdiction;—to Controversies to which the United States shall be a Party;—to Controversies between two or more States;—between a State and Citizens of another State;—between Citizens of different States;—between Citizens of the same State claiming Lands under Grants of different States, and between a State, or the Citizens thereof, and foreign States, Citizens or Subjects.”

The Courts get to resolve ALL “cases and controversies” arising under the Constitution.
If you don’t like it, move somewhere else.
