>>>>In an article which I have yet to finish I shall argue that there is evidence to suppose that Senator Obama has broken the Logan Act repeatedly and recently.

He absolutely did this with the Kenya election.

Text of the Logan Act
§ 953. Private correspondence with foreign governments.
Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, with intent to influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government or of any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.
This section shall not abridge the right of a citizen to apply himself, or his agent, to any foreign government, or the agents thereof, for redress of any injury which he may have sustained from such government or any of its agents or subjects.
1 Stat. 613, January 30, 1799, codified at 18 U.S.C. § 953 (2004).

I don’t think Texas Darlin is up to date with the Palestinian contributions. Amity, you should send her an email. I think BVW has it.

Pam Geller does not want to help bring down Obama until after the nomination is secured. She said so on her blog today. I guess she had a quickie change of heart.

I think the issue is too serious for political posturing. His party helped position him. They should clean up their own mess and unposition him. But, that is just what I think :P

"Can you take a look at TexasDarlings article posted above. Does Stanley Ann filing for divorce from Lolo in Hawaii make any sense to you?"

No it doesn't make much sense for several reasons, the main one being that Dunham stayed on in Indonesia with her daughter Maya. The divorce was in Indonesia.

As far as I know, under Indonesian law even at that time, Stanley Ann Dunham would have only been able to initiate divorce proceedings under very limited and specific circumstances and then she would have to prove them according to Islamic law. Such as the husband was not following the religion (in which case Dunham would have to show herself to be a more pious person than Lolo), or that Lolo had abandoned her and not provided her and the children with the basic necessities of life or that Lolo was impotent and could not perform his marital duties as a husband.

Lolo would not have been able to take another with without written permission from Stanley Ann Dunham. Under Indonesian law, the first wife must agree to the husband taking a second wife.

From what I have uncovered, Lolo is the one who divorced Stanley Ann Dunham, he then remarried and fathered three children, two girls and one boy.

The truth is this, whatever caused the initial problem was not Senator Obama’s fault, his mother probably caused the problem in the first place and she is dead. What is his fault, assuming that he was adopted by Lolo Soetoro, is that he has deliberately concealed his background, obscuring a thousand details that should be a matter of Public Record. Obama seems to have lied about his background in print and in person persistently for nearly twenty years. This would make him unfit to be President even if he is Eligible under Article II, which I think him not to be. There seems to be presumptive evidence of violation of various Federal Campaign Finance Laws and Regulations, and there seems to be, at the least, evidence that he has associated with persons guilty of Corruption on a systematic basis. In an article which I have yet to finish I shall argue that there is evidence to suppose that Senator Obama has broken the Logan Act repeatedly and recently. In short, on the preponderance of evidence Senator Obama should step down now from seeking the Presidency and submit himself to some form of Legal Inquiry on a voluntary basis and before he is compelled so to do. He should also apologize to the American People and to his own followers.
Thanks LucyT and pissant.
