Stunner! Supremes to give eligibility case another look

"Stunner! Supremes to give eligibility case another look
Challenge to Obama getting 2nd conference before court

In a stunning move, the U.S. Supreme Court has scheduled another "conference" on a legal challenge to Barack Obama's eligibility to occupy the Oval Office, but officials there are not answering questions about whether two justices given their jobs by Obama will participate.

The court has confirmed that it has distributed a petition for rehearing in the case brought by attorney John Hemenway on behalf of retired Col. Gregory Hollister and it will be the subject of a conference on March 4.

It was in January that the court denied, without comment, a request for a hearing on the arguments. But the attorney at the time had submitted a motion for Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan, who were given their jobs by Obama, to recuse.

Should Obama ultimately be shown to have been ineligible for the office, his actions, including his appointments, at least would be open to challenge and question.

At the time, the Supreme Court acknowledged the "motion for recusal" but it changed it on official docketing pages to a "request." And it reportedly failed to respond to the motion.

We need to push for state ballot initiatives that would allow any registered voter legal standing (complete with subpoena power for all necessary records and information) to challenge in court the eligibility of any person whose name is listed on the state ballot, as long as the suit is filed before a candidate takes office.

The rank-and-file voters are at this point the only people who can be trusted to not be corrupted or threatened by Soros’ thugs and the threat of media ridicule. We the people have been standing firm even in the face of the media ridicule, and Soros can’t threaten us all - at least not to our faces.

The state legislative committees are too connected to the establishment and enjoy the media’s smile too much to do what’s right on this issue. They saw the loudest vote in history and they still didn’t hear us through the ballot box.

The people themselves as legislators and defenders of the Constitution are the last resort. Remember the Alamo!

BFD. It’s just a conference on a petition for rehearing. Can’t they read over at WND?

BFD we just keep grasping at straws hoping to find someone who has the courage to hear the case. We are running out of options and time.

Yes and then the dems would get all excited in Biden picking Hillary as VP. ::::rolls eyes::::

One thing no one has never pondered out loud that I have seen is if it is proven in a impeachment trial that this was first degree treason i e....Obama knows he is not eligible and covered up and all who aided and abetted this. Would he not go to a Leavenworth? Or a Military Tribunal as CIC? Or could the political aspect of this slap his wrist and send him to Chicago rich so he could write books?

Also would his teleprompter, cabinet (that have not flown the coop yet) accompany him to jail? If Biden Pelosi et al were proven to have known what would happen?

1. With no original Birth Certificate (HI admits they don’t have it) we do not know for sure “who” his father really is.

2. Assuming Barrack H. Obama, Sr. is Obozo’s real father, if he was born in the U.S. (unproven at this point) he would NOT be a “natural born U.S. Citizen” as required by the Constitution.

3. If Obozo was born outside the United States, and again assuming that Barrack H. Obama, Sr. is his father, he is not even a U.S. Citizen because his mother was 18 (or under) when he was born. She was not old enough to transmit citizenship to her son if he was foreign born.

4. The only way that Obozo is a “natural born U.S. Citizen” is if someone other than Barrack H. Obama, Sr. is his father, and that person was a U.S. Citizen at the time of Obozo’s birth.

Regardless he is a total FRAUD!

What a mess...................

If it is on both of Obama’s parents being American it is A BFD.
If it is on the Hawaii guv finding something jotted down on his BARRY SOETORO’s birth it is a BFD.

Imagine the MSM if Jindal were to rise and look like he could beat Obama they would SCREAM he was not qualified.

We really need to STOP relying upon World Nut Daily for information. Under the Supreme Court's current internal rules of practice, the SCOTUS needs four votes to grant certiorari to hear a case, regardless of the number of justices voting. Thus, even if Kagan and Sotomayer recuse themselves — which they won't and shouldn't — four justices will still need to vote in favor of certiorari. That's not going to happen, and the nuts at WND should know that.

Sounds like a movie blurb if you think of it in that whispery voice.

Old news. It’s been scheduled for conference for weeks. And it’ll be turned down again, just like all the other ones.

Question is, will enough of them actually agree to hear it this time and will Sotomayor and Kagan recuse themselves?

Do you expect Sotomayor or Kagin to vote to hear the case? If not, then what does it matter if they recuse themselves or not?

There is a Bible verse I think of that says “stand for the truth, and the Lord will stand with you...”.

When an issue like this won’t go away I can’t can’t help but think the heavans are watching.

The Supremes should stop this "Birther" nonsense in its tracks.

They can just have the Governor of Hawaii send them a copy of the real birth certificate.
