Justice Thomas: 'The court is 'avoiding' the Natural Born Citizen question.
CSPAN ^ | April 15,2010 | CSPAN

Posted on 04/16/2010 7:23:33 AM PDT by penelopesire

A curious thing happened in the Supreme Court budget hearing yesterday. Rep. Joe Serrano went on a long monologue about 'diversity' in the court and even said he would be glad when the day came, that a Puerto Rican could be president...to which Thomas replied that the court was avoiding that question. Nervous laughter ensues and the topic is quickly dropped. I'd like to know what my fellow FReepers think of the exchange.

It happens around the 1:13-1:14:10 mark in the video. It would be great if someone could isolate that exchange and put it on YouTube so everyone could hear it without sitting through the entire hearing.

Stanley Ann Dunham does not have a United states birth certificate anywhere in vital records. Usually you can find it and then if related send away for the record. She is nowhere to be found.

The only Obama relative found anywhere in records is Madelyn in the census. She was like 7 years old living in her father Rollo Payne’s home at the time.

And obama’s grandfather’s records are nowhere to be found either. Interesting family that stepped out of a Obama book or the twilight zone.

And whether they lie and hide and obfuscate and use voter fraud or not.

It’s insane. It’s ruinous.

Not because they like Obama, but because THEY THINK any decision they make will be a bad one for the people, whichever side they are on.


By acting like scared rabbit eunuchs, it will be much, much worse than bringing it out in the open and finding the truth. So much worse.

I never realized that no-one can find proof that Stanley was born here either?!

Wow...are you sure? I am hopelessly behind on this BC stuff.

I can see that the man is laughing..yes.It doesn’t mean that what he said isn’t true. The courts are ‘evading’ this issue.

Be careful, the trolls have a habit of glumming on if they see an opening. ;-)

Sounds accurate to me. The whole thing was very odd to say the least. The nervous laughter was even odder.

Remember, too, that many Conservative were SHAMED, so far as to NOT even use Obama's middle name of HUSSEIN, until Obama decided in December 2008 to use it for his Oath of Office on January 20 (and Jan 21).

Ah yes. Just ask Bill Cunningham of WLW in Cincinnati who dared to utter the legitimate middle name of the Dem nominee. And there was McCain, rebuking him soundly for supposedly embarrassing the candidate.

I did not know that, I just assumed they were.

“IIRC, Thomas was the justice who accepted the case presented in Dec 2008 claiming Obama wasn’t qualified to be President based on his father being Kenyan.

Thomas didn’t “accept” any case. Every case filed in the Supreme Court gets heard at a conference.

It went for conference with the 9 justices, and at least 6 thought the case wasn’t worth hearing. That means 0-3 thought it was...and I’d assume Thomas makes it at least 1.

There were no recorded dissents from any of the Supreme Court’s denials of certiorari in eligibility cases. “

I don’t understand it, what does this mean?

Some have even gone to Kansas and nothing there. No, I am not sure about anything. All I know is Obama is a liar and his family seemingly came out of a cabbage patch.

I also know I can go into records in the counties and find my whole family there. Why isn’t Obama’s family?

Anyone living near Kansas can look at the microfiche for birth records too. http://www.vitalrecordsus.com/kansas-vital-records.html

Stanley Ann Dunham (November 29, 1942 – November 7, 1995), Born in Kansas, Death in Hawaii.

There are other genealogy websites I have searched for Stanley Ann and the only thing that comes up is people creatin their family trees based on Obama’s word who Stanley Ann is and where she was born. Not one has a copy of her BC. Her death certificate is available.

Very often, when the Supreme Court refuses to hear a case ("grant certiorari"), the Court's order will say: "Certiorari denied. Justice ___ dissents." Sometimes, a justice will even write a dissenting opinion explaining why they think the case should have been heard. No justice recorded any dissent in any Obama eligibility case (I think there have been 7 or so that reached the Court, all denied).

Just keep it in mind. One may come out eventually. There is always a chance.

---------------------------------------------------

No justice has written a dissenting opinion on any of them....because they are all "avoiding" the question as justice Thomas just pointed out.

They didn't want to "touch" this hot potato in 2008 / early 2009. The country was in love with Ol' Barry. Or so, the state run media informed us.
