a KY. Ping, Folks....

Kentucky is a red state with no shortage of conspiracy theorists and unusual politics, so it's no surprise that what might be the first post-election court challenge to Barack Obama's qualifications to be president comes from a Whitley County truck driver.
Daniel John Essek, 47, filed a demand last week that Obama prove he is a natural-born U.S. citizen — one of the few requirements to run for president.
Essek wants Obama to provide a copy of his birth certificate to a federal judge in London for verification.
He knows some people might find his request odd, especially after the election, but says he would tell them it's never too late to do the right thing.
"I may very well be chasing windmills thinking they're monsters," he acknowledged.
Essek lost by more than 100,000 votes when he tried to unseat longtime Republican U.S. Sen Mitch McConnell in the primary election this year. He later said on a Web site "maybe I got a little carried away, like my wife said."
The charge that Obama wasn't born in the United States came up often during the presidential campaign. Obama's campaign said that was ridiculous, posting a copy of his birth certificate on the Internet to prove he was born in Hawaii.

It is not too late to write a letter to the Supreme Court or your Senator or Representative.
At the very least, PLEASE sign these two online-petitions and pass the information on to everybody you know:

That wink will leave Obama’s face when these non-citizenship cases get to the U.S. Supreme Court:

It's insane that someone could think that posting on the internet proves anything.
Why doesn’t anyone see if he has a security clearance? Verification of place and date of birth are required for one.
The Court must be in London because London is in Laurel County. Whitley county is Corbin, Home of KFC and the Colonel. :)

They funny.
Obama must be carrying a tremendous burden of fear and stress knowing that there is a cover-up of some sort going on and the pressure for full disclosure is mounting.
I’m convinced that the Constitution (Article II, Section 1, Clause 5) strips US citizens of their right to privacy where basic birth information is concerned when they run for president.
Even if he wasn’t born in the U.S. wouldn’t this be moot because his mother was a U.S. citizen at the time of the birth and he is therefore a natural born citizen? Just as children of U.S. citizens born overseas are still U.S. citizens.
