Was Duke Bennett really born in Kenya?

[TommyDale]

So since Obama did work for ACORN, which also received Federal Funding, does that mean he violated the Hatch Act?

[NonValueAdded]

Born in Kenya?

[rwfromkansas]

How incredibly stupid......

[reformedliberal]

What does the Hatch Act have to with a local, municipal elected position?

[TommyDale]

Not only did Obama work for ACORN, that organization received millions in Federal money. Therefore, according to this judge’s decision, Obama violated the Hatch Act.

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

Michelle worked/works for a hospital that accepts federal funds.

DId the Opossums file “jointly, married”?

[arthurus]

Probably because of his Republicanness.

[TPOOH]

You mean to tell me there’s eligibility requirements for public office?....../sarc

[arthurus]

I would raqther have Pelosi than Hussein.She is crazy and looks crazy and sounds crazy.

[Always Right]

The court actually ruled that the current mayor was ineligible under the Hatch act because he worked at a medical facility that received federal funding.

That is a real lame excuse to overturn an election.

[Bigh4u2]

Yep.

[Brookhaven]

Now that Obama has assumed the “Office of President-Elect” I don’t think there is anything we can do to remove him.

After all, a guy that has the hutspah to creat a constituional office out of thin air and then assume it will do pretty much anything.

[Steve Van Doorn]

I think ACORN was receiving government money.

[babubabu]

scary

[skeeter]

Silly rabbit. The rules are for Republicans.

[Larry - Moe and Curly]

Just sent an email to the editor of the Terre Haute News asking that he report on and follow Leo Donofrio’s case in the Supreme Court, since they were already reporting on “eligibility”.

I guess we’ll see if the Terre Haute News is part of the MSM.

[livius]

No, it’s thought that he’s actually a citizen of Indonesia and holds (or held) an Indonesian passport, which certainly would have permitted him to travel in Pakistan. He was adopted by his Indonesian stepfather, and it doesn’t appear that he ever renounced the Indonesian citizenship.

[fieldmarshaldj]

From Indiana... Democrats are getting ever more creative in finding ways to steal victories from duly-elected Republicans. This was the first Republican to win the Mayor’s office in Democrat-heavy Terre Haute in about 40 years.
