Interview, Orly Taitz: Chief Justice Roberts Calls Conference on Obama Challenge: Lightfoot v. Bowen
Fort Hard Knox ^ | January 7, 2009 | Arlen Williams

Posted on 01/09/2009 8:28:39 PM PST by devere

Chief Justice John Roberts has sent a full-throated challenge of Barack Obama’s presidential eligibility to conference: Lightfoot v. Bowen (SCOTUS docket page). I.O. interviewed Lightfoot lead attorney, Orly Taitz at 2:20pm CT, today, minutes after she learned of this move.

Taitz believes, “This is Chief Justice Roberts telling the Congress… the other eight Justices, that there is a problem with this election.”

The Lightfoot case has legal standing, due to litigant, Libertarian Gail Lightfoot’s vice presidential candidacy in California. It also address two major issues of legal merit: 1. Obama’s failure to provide legally evidentiary documentation of citizenship and American birth and, 2. his United Kingdom citizenship at birth, passed to him by his Kenyan father when that nation was a British colony. (Other current challenges also submit that Obama’s apparent status as an Indonesian citizen, as a child, would have caused his American citizenship to be revoked.) This case is therefore considered the strongest yet, to be heard by the Supreme Court. Obama challenger, Philp Berg had previously been granted conference hearings, scheduled this Friday, 1/9 and on 1/16.

Roberts was submitted this case on 12/29, originally a petition for an injunction against the State of California’s Electoral College vote. His action comes one day before the Congress is to certify the Electoral College votes electing Barack Obama, 1/8. The conference called by Roberts is scheduled for 1/23. Orly Taitz is not deterred by the conference coming after the inauguration, which is to be held 1/20, “If they find out that he was not eligible, then they can actually rescind the election; the whole inauguration and certification were not valid.” The strongest time for legal and judicial rulings are generally after the fact.

Some individual or some group should offer Obama a million dollars to prove he's a naturalized citizen. At a salary of $475,000 per year, it'd be more than his first two years in office.

Honey vs Vinegar when it comes to catching bees. He hasn't responded to the vinegar, try honey. If he balks at a million dollars, try convincing anyone that an authentic certificate exists. Bada boom.

Obama’s Presidency will go down in history as being illegal and pathetic. But then again he was the first!

My eighty-nine year old father practice law for over 50 years. He was top in his class and clerked for the federal court. When the Gore case went to the SCOTUS he wrote the chapter, paragraph etc that the court would be decide the case on a piece of paper. He also wrote the vote tally and which justices would vote which way.....He gave the paper to a young judge in town and told him to open it when the decision was published........He was 100% correct.

He thinks any one who thinks that the SCOTUS is going to ignore or dismiss this case is delusional......He is much more qualified to judge the case then you are.

[Chief Justice John Roberts has sent a full-throated challenge of Barack Obama’s presidential eligibility to conference:]

I wish I fully understood the full meaning of this. Always sounds like a good thing to me but every other post is a disagreement about how it works?

Wayne Root issued a 1 million dollar challenge to obama to produce his college transcripts (Columbia)...Root was at Columbia the same time as obama.

drew...you don’t have to agree with the cases, but at least put forward an argument. You sound like a paid drone.....I hope you’re getting paid by the keystroke because your arguments are not getting the job done.

Thank you. FARS pings me to all his posts and I probably missed that one. I’ll go back and read through it. He uses my gifs there often.

"He thinks any one who thinks that the SCOTUS is going to ignore or dismiss this case is delusional....."

I would highly value hearing your father's prediction for what the court will do. Even if only conjecture, his experience and maturity should make them words worth having.

Time is getting late and we're down to the wire here if they're going to do anything other than dismiss and ignore this and all related cases.....

I sure hope your father is correct once again.

Someone called in to the radio program tonight, they found a student with the Sorteo (M) name from Indonesia (1981)registered at the local high school near Occidental.

Could BO have needed to augment his high school classes, combined with his Jr college work in order to get into Columbia?

First he says they had to wait until now for Berg to have standing.

Second, There is no precedence for this case. Can't remember the legal term, but it mean this is original decision that all other cases will refer to in the future. It is a historical decision and they will do everything they can to get it right.....cross every T etc.

Third, The constitution does not establish who vets the candidate, part of their decision will determine that....DNC, FEC may be held responsible in the future if not now. It could destroy the “D” party if they are proved to be part of an intentional fraud. (FEC has replied no contest IIRC).

Fourth, If BO does not provide documentation they request, He will be held in contempt and they WILL obtain it.

Read the link at 28.

Okay, we will see who Chief Justice Roberts gives the Oath of Office to on Jan. 20.

He may indeed be given the oath of office on the 20th, but when the SCOTUS makes their decision he WILL be removed from office and arrested for fraud....No Impeachment, No appeal...just removed.

A million dollars? Phttt! Obama stands to earn many times that amount as the first African American president in the years after his presidency. He’s already raking in the dough with his two books and he hasn’t even taken office yet. He’ll be worth a cool $20 million or more by the time he’s 60.

As Dr. Evil himself found out, a million dollars isn’t worth anything these days.
