WASHINGTON, (AP) -- Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy has rejected two more efforts to get the court to consider whether President-elect Barack Obama is eligible to take office.

Kennedy on Wednesday denied without comment an appeal by Philip J. Berg, a Pennsylvania attorney, that claims Obama is either a citizen of Kenya or Indonesia and is ineligible to be president . . .

I’d love to see the certificate troll list.

I’ve been keeping one of my own. Star Traveler has been inching her way up the list the past 36 hours. I suppose the trolls work in shifts and her shift likely ends this week! I wonder who will return next?

[Kevmo]

Cool, let’s combine those 2 lists.

When do you think you’ll publish it, lj?

[battletank]

Here’s a suggestion for you Star Traveler. Next time you interview for a job and they ask you for your experience, just tell them that it’s their responsibility to prove you aren’t qualified. That is exactly the kind of ridiculous argument you are presenting here. It’s laughable to say the very least.

[STARWISE]

Must be my weary brain ... it’s just confusing
to me, the way the items are designated there.

I’ll take your word for it ... ;)

Kennedy is a surprise.

Dear Lord, save our country.

So far it’s not proven it’s all partisan Republicans ...

[curth]

Thanks. Not that it mattered.

[gargoyle]

...Point well taken, I’m just as partisan and zealous for third party politics, and reading yer reply makes me realize what an ass I’ve been lately on FR. Sorry, forgive me...

[SkyDancer]

Not to worry - see, it's hard to read into what people write. It depends on how the person is feeling at the time they read it .... Take Care - Have A Blessed Christmas. /r/Jane

Dont get your hopes up...per the Supreme court website
•
If a Justice acts alone to deny an application, a petitioner may reapply to any other Justice of his or her choice, and theoretically can continue until
a majority of the Court has denied the application.
In practice, applications usually are referred
to the full Court by the second Justice to avoid such a prolonged procedure

Whenever an applcation is resubmitted to a second justice it is scheduled for conference. It does not mean the case does or does not have merit...only that it has been submitted twice.... Sending it to conference prevents a persistant applicant from submiting to 5 different justices.

I believe they should. This is not just any “Issue”. This goes to our Constitution. If they ignore this “Issue” they will ignore anything they want.

Why don’t you just say he says he is instead of he purports to be a natural born citizen...

All any of us are asking to is his original proof of citizenship not a computer generated easily duplicated and manipulated truncated version created at the start of the election cycle....

This is not a search for the truth, it is an original verification of his eligibility.

We already know that he has admitted being a British subject as well as Kenyan citizen by virtue of his birth, both of which DO NOT REQUIRE HIM TO BE BORN IN KENYA, only that he is the son of his father.

Thanks for the great update, LucyT

Ping.

“Since Minnesota is the only state in which the election is not final, couldn’t Governor Pawlenty refuse to sanction the election and demand that Obama produce the proper birth certificate? Does he have the balls to do it if he could?

---

No, its too late.
The Minnesota Electors for Obama voted on Monday and sent their vote total on to Congress just like every other state and the District of Columbia. The Senate election has no bearing on the Presidential election.

I daresay pretty nearly everyone will know of a previous post on the subject. Old friend Dr Jerome Corsi comes up with his information on WND. Seems a private investigator from the States side was commissioned to find out a little more about the past.

The two newspapers of the day in 1961 had posted the birth announcement by the Barack Obama parents. The address was the Kalianaole Highway and I hope I have it right, number 6085. A long time resident was close by before the birth of Barack Obama II. She was interviewed about the past.

Oh, thinks I, just to put every one at peace, she must come up with a charming scene. The young mother and the dashing student from Kenya.

Whoops, the lady says she never saw anyone at all of that description there. Some real research work there into the old records and finding a couple who owned the building at that address. Would'nt you know it! The gentleman passed away at 91 years of age last year. His wife passed away only last July.

The situation alone, absolutely demands a proper resolving of any questions. This much is owed to the American people.

Just checking in - gone all day.

Here’s my current list (keep in mind I wasn’t on FR that much yesterday, and none today except 15 minutes early this AM):

genefromjersey
curiosity
Drew68
Non-Sequitor
Star Traveler
gracesdad (to be truthful, haven’t seen him around lately on these threads)
DMon

I suppose I should ping them to this post, just for etiquette’s sake. But I won’t at the minute, too tired.

[little jeremiah]

There’s my current list above.

[MHGinTN]

With their trolldar, they won’t need pinging. But they’ll whine that you insulted them by not doing it.

[little jeremiah]

At this point, their feelings mean nothing to me!

If anyone has any additions or subtractions from the list, ping me.

[cookcounty]

is it over?

Maybe...for now.

But the new primary season is just 36 months away. How about putting into law in a few states that nobody gets on the ballot without producing their birth certificate for the given states' SOS, and that the SOS be required to make the BC public? If even two or three states pass such a law, we will see a BC in 3 years, or BO will not be re-elected, because his hand will have been forced.
