Chief Justice John Roberts has sent a full-throated challenge of Barack Obama’s presidential eligibility to conference: Lightfoot v. Bowen (SCOTUS docket page). I.O. interviewed Lightfoot lead attorney, Orly Taitz at 2:20pm CT, today, minutes after she learned of this move.
Taitz believes, “This is Chief Justice Roberts telling the Congress… the other eight Justices, that there is a problem with this election.”
The Lightfoot case has legal standing, due to litigant, Libertarian Gail Lightfoot’s vice presidential candidacy in California. It also address two major issues of legal merit: 1. Obama’s failure to provide legally evidentiary documentation of citizenship and American birth and, 2. his United Kingdom citizenship at birth, passed to him by his Kenyan father when that nation was a British colony. (Other current challenges also submit that Obama’s apparent status as an Indonesian citizen, as a child, would have caused his American citizenship to be revoked.) This case is therefore considered the strongest yet, to be heard by the Supreme Court. Obama challenger, Philp Berg had previously been granted conference hearings, scheduled this Friday, 1/9 and on 1/16.
Roberts was submitted this case on 12/29, originally a petition for an injunction against the State of California’s Electoral College vote. His action comes one day before the Congress is to certify the Electoral College votes electing Barack Obama, 1/8. The conference called by Roberts is scheduled for 1/23. Orly Taitz is not deterred by the conference coming after the inauguration, which is to be held 1/20, “If they find out that he was not eligible, then they can actually rescind the election; the whole inauguration and certification were not valid.” The strongest time for legal and judicial rulings are generally after the fact.

Clever!
That’s priceless...County of Birth: CCCP...great
ROFLOL....WHat is he smoking? LOL
If there is proof, and I mean PROOF, that Obama was born elsewhere, I would be thrilled. I'd send Jim a nice check. Or just drop it off. Not as big as it might be though, because I have to prepare for the Obama Depression.
The Ayers issue is a good example, but there were several others where the first response had a vagueness to it and when someone persisted asking questions the lies became blatant falsehoods, like the issue of Rev Wright.
The Obamanoid posters are using the same technique, it is straight out of rules for radicals, the Alinsky methodology which encourages lying in growing degrees of falsehood using misdirection when confronted but returning to the same lies to repeat over and over. The operative has no regard for truth but plays the game of trying to pretend they are holding you to being truthful or respectful. They don;t deserve respect, not at Freerepublic.com. Many of them have active accounts at DU and Huff'iPuff where they get laughs out of posts they drag over to DU for 'discussion'.
The 'I'm not attacking you personally so stop calling me names' whine is a typical liberal ploy. Freerepublic is infested with liberal trolls of late, some of whom have been sleepers for years only doing 'their thing' at election times. Ya can't blasme Jim for not being able to keep up with all the issues at FR, but this is getting a bit too blatant.

I might be the only freeper that was also a member of John Robinson's BBS, before Free Republic existed.

Bad Stridence: Proof positive that credentials do not equal credibility

***I’ve seen others who claimed to be members. I lurked at the BBS for a while as well. You really have no place criticising us for conspiracy theories if you’ve been on the BBS.
They are just following the procedure. Nothing about that instills any confidence.
***The resident constitutional scholar seems to have more confidence than you and has characterized what I wrote as “good analysis”. Who should we believe, him or you? We don’t see him berating conservatives who are fighting for the constitution. But we see you doing that. You’re at the point where you’re justifying your troll behavior and it does not measure up to what honorable freepers do.
