OBAMA SUED

Less than two weeks out from losing yet another presidential race, Alan Keyes has started a fresh campaign against President-Elect Barack Obama – in the courtroom.

Alan Keyes and other members of the American Independent Party have filed suit in California Superior Court in Sacramento to stop the state from giving its electoral votes to Obama until the former Illinois Senator can produce a birth certificate showing that he is indeed a natural-born citizen of the United States, according to party.

Keyes, who is from Maryland, ran against Obama as a Republican for the U.S. Senate seat in Illinois in 2004. Obama won that election to serve his first and only term in the U.S. Senate. The Obama campaign countered similar accusations early in 2008 by posting Obama's certification of live birth, and saying: "Barack Obama was born in the state of Hawaii in 1961, a native citizen of the United States of America."

The nine justices will hold the fate of freedom in their hands.

Alan Keyes is a dilettante who should just go away. He is just another Sharpton with a different viewpoint.

Yep.

By the way, you are aware that J McCain was born in the Canal Zone, AKA Panama.

[EternalVigilance]

They called him a Republican, too. A tactic that was surely designed to rile up their obvious audience.

Fact is, Alan Keyes has left the GOP, and is part of our new vehicle for conservatism, America's Independent Party.

[unspun]

Good, let BET be a day late and a dollar short.

[exnavy]

See post 25.

[pissant]

Apples and oranges. But yes, I’m aware. And yes, McCain released his vault birth certificate.

[Elvina]

The real secret: Obama is an android.

[pissant]

Ridiculous statement, and I’m not even a Keyes fan.

[Responsibility2nd]

Right. Pray for a favorable decision on Dec. 5.

[EternalVigilance]

By the way, you are aware that J McCain was born in the Canal Zone, AKA Panama.

I'll keep correcting folks every chance I get until I see such inaccuracies ceasing to be repeated on FR.

Senator McCain was not born "in the Canal Zone." He was born in Colon, in the Republic of Panama, in a civilian hospital.

Conservatives have nothing to fear from the truth.

[null and void]

Ummmm. No. He was born in Colón Panama, not in the Canal Zone, nor on the base.

The nine justices will hold the fate of freedom in their hands.

Will they punt the US Constitution too? Will they kick it to the curb? I hope and pray they won't.

This may be old, but it's significant. Very few of the media have "noticed" this story. Also, I get a kick out of the photo they use with the article. Which one is the real black guy?

By the way, you are aware that J McCain was born in the Canal Zone, AKA Panama.

Let's please keep the facts straight, here. John McCain was not born in the Canal Zone. Coco Solo Hospital was not built until 1941. John McCain was born in 1936. That means he was born in the hospital in Colon, Panama. That is what his birth certificate indicates. He was not born on US soil.

The nice comments are calling him a Republican House Negro.

And the rest are downhill from there.

Folks, when the SCOTUS rules against Obammie on 12/05/2008.... be sure your loins are girded!

hoo-boy!

More likely just five of them will.
