that answer is exactly why the feckless Judicial Watch is referred to as 'Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton with a law degree'

Freepers and conservatives have plenty of resources and yet none of us can get to the proof.

As far as I know there are not too many Freepers that have the connections of the Clinton's and know where all the bodies are buried. Because of that I am sure Bill & Hillary have their calls returned from almost any head of state within minutes.

And I am sure there are not any Freepers that have "death list" of their past associates who died in violent and mysterious ways.

Hillary would have had the Obama Birth Certificate bomb out there the day before the Iowa Caucus.

And we all know that Sarah Palin is strong and smart and if the BC story were true she would have clearly stated it as fact to the American People.

It isn't a rumor. Obama did not respond by Dec 1st and Berg filed further papers. It was posted here on FR.

Berg to File Emergency Injunction Today, Awaits Answer from Barack Obama and DNC

One day after the deadline set by Supreme Court Justice David Souter for Barack Obama and the DNC to respond to attorney Philip Berg's Petition for Writ of Certiorari has passed without an answer,

Wasn't Cort's application supposed to be heard today also?

If it was, then I would think that the Supremes would lump the cases together and be the last ones for discussion.

Well, that's what I would do, first take care of the *Minor* stuff quickly, and then go for the *Major* one later

To: All

Here are some questions for all of you (I know very little about the law):

1. Why can’t a class-action lawsuit be filed on behalf of the American people to force Obama to answer all of these questions? It seems that we ought to have “standing” since, as voters, the citizens participate in an election assuming the candidates to be qualified to run. If they aren’t, it is fraud, pure and simple. We have laws to prevent people from advertising falsely and people get sued when they do. I realize a faulty toaster is not the same as a fraudulent candidate, but in both cases, people expect to get one thing, and they get another. Besides perpetrating the fraudulent notion that he is qualified to be President, he has stolen votes that would have gone to a candidate who is qualified (the Hillary supporters’ argument). The people of the United States have been victims of a massive, massive fraud.

2. For that matter, why can’t the DNC be sued under RICO laws? A quick glance at the Wikipedia definition of how someone or an organization can be charged states that the individual or organization must commit two of the 35 acts. Some of those acts are: bribery, extortion, embezzlement, fraud, theft, dealing in obscene matter, obstruction of justice, racketeering, money laundering, bankruptcy or securities fraud, and bringing in, aiding or assisting aliens in illegally entering the country (if the action was for financial gain). It seems to me that the DNC defines the word “racketeering” (the process of forming or running an organization to operate or commit or otherwise execute ongoing criminal activities).

From the official SCOTUS site:

Only 2 orders today, all others were denied. You can monitor this link for the official notification of the denial

“I ask you, what are the chances that for the first time in US history, not one, but “both” candidates for the major political parties have issues surrounding their status as a “natural born” citizen?
I see it as further evidence that elections in America are a farce decided well before any “votes” are taken.”

I certainly understand your thinking that way. I too have to question how this could happen. All I can come up with is that McCain didn’t touch Obama’s qualifications because he knew he didn’t qualify either. And then another question is why didn’t Hillary bring it up during the campaign? Most likely because she knew the Media would be ALL OVER HER and ruin her chances big time! I just don’t know. All I want is for our Constitution to be upheld....no matter WHO is President!

Good to know. I had no idea of their lack of credibility until I read their email response to me.

Thank you for sharing your experience with me.

Does a case being taken to conference ever get dealt with by issuing a remand with stipulation and not being put on the docket for cert?

No.

Would you care to amend this. I am saying Polarik prove who he is and his status as an expert. The other statements are “If” statements.
***No, I do not amend my statement. Your libels were not within conditional “if” statements, so you cannot weasel out of them. Who was it that showed up at the TV interview and signed affidavits in Berg Vs. Obama? It was Ron Polarik. He’s met the standard. You have not.

Will we find out the reason if it turns out the Donofrio case doesn’t make it any further? (Still keeping my fingers crossed here)

Then explain why Obama doesn’t produce his Birth Certificate.

I don't know, probably because it includes something embarrassing, or maybe even that he was born in Kenya. The BC issue is irrelevant to the matter currently presented to SCOTUS, which claims that dual citizenship with another country disqualifies one from being President. This claim is false, and makes its proponents look like fools.

What time was that .pdf published? I wonder if we even have today’s writs complete today. If this .pdf was published early in the day, it may be for yesterday’s hearings.

If the rodham rodent had disqualified Obama during the primaries, she would have lost the election by a percentage of the black vote which would have abandoned the democrats in this election, which would have devastated the democrat’s down ticket. Such suicide is not a clinton trait, so she was in the weak position of not having any choice but to ignore the issue and squelch any evidence her operatives may have had. Berg is a Democrat and was action on his own initiative. The clinton crime family doesn’t give a damn about the Constitution, so ignoring the issue was in their interest not that of the affirmative action candidate or the Republic. But the poster to whom you’ve given heed has an agenda to ridicule so don’t expect the prick [little nettle] to payt your cogent responses any credulity.

All Souter did was make a standard ruling that the defendants could file a response to the Berg pleadings if they wished. It is not required to file anything. He did not request a birth certificate or anything remotely like that.

What was denied by Souter was an emergency stay of the election.
