Is Obama Campaign Cash Quashing Eligibility Suits?
worldnetdaily.com ^ | April 22, 2009 | Chelsea Schilling

Posted on 04/22/2009 9:58:47 PM PDT by kellynla

President Obama may be using campaign funds to stomp out eligibility lawsuits brought by Americans, as his campaign has paid more than $1 million to his top lawyer since the election.

According to Federal Election Commission records, Obama For America paid $688,316.42 to international law firm Perkins Coie between January and March 2009.

The campaign also compensated Perkins Coie for legal services between Oct. 16, 2008 and Dec. 31, 2008 – to the tune of $378,375.52.

Robert Bauer of Perkins Coie – top lawyer for Obama, Obama's presidential campaign, the Democratic National Committee and Obama's Organizing for America – is the same Washington, D.C., lawyer defending President Obama in lawsuits challenging his eligibility to be president.

Millions of campaign, ill-gotten, cash to spend defending his Kenyan birth.

If you or I had blatantly broken a Constitutional law, we would have been in the slammer for fraud already. Especially if we had REFUSED to prove our case, and spent at least a million dollars to squash the action of the justice system.

It speaks for itself.

Roberts’ silence is more proof of complicity, it would appear. Oh well, the Constitutional Republic had a good run. Now we’ll see how long democrat federal oligarchy can protect us.

Another great untold Obama Story: THE MONEY!

The Divine One, raised about $1Billion (Ja, that was a "B") for his campaign, and spent no more than $750 Million.

That $250Million is, of course, the "Change" the man be talkin'bout. As in, "I keeps the change. BTW, that is perfectly legal, IF properly accounted. This little perk goes largely unnoticed, but it is the foundation of many a politician's family fortune.

Ralph Nader has made collecting campaign funds which he never spends his life's work. Even Pat Buchanan picked up $12ReallyLArge, John Kerry $17Mill.

But this guy's gotém all beat.

The Obama’s claimed they only made 1.4 million last year, or something around there.

I don’t know where they even made that, since he never had a job to speak of.
As for those election funds, I thought he had to either use them, claim them as income, or turn them over to the DNC?

Look at his book sales. Also Michele had a lucrative 'job'.

In my naivite, I’d like to know why the SCOTUS doesn’t spend some time on this. I know it’s fashionable here to just diss the judges and include them as part of some conspiracy but seriously folks, there’s got to be a more sane (constitutional?) reason than that.

He pissed off the CIA. Not a good idea. Hopefully a patriot in their ranks will take care of it, and soon will release all of the documents.

Obama spends more time money and resources on trying to hide or erase anything that could expose his past, he spends more time on this than serving America.

Everyday there is less news about the lawsuits against his eligibility, he has used resources to infiltrate almost every group working on this and has caused them to appear as crackpots, extremists or un-americans.

The Justice Department has sold its soul to the devil.

“The Justice Department has sold its soul to the devil.”

Yea, well I was very suspicious of GWB’s absolute refusal to secure BOTH borders & deport ALL illegals, foreign muzzies and should have deported even the 100K incarcerated foreigners...One thing is for sure, Mexico sure got it's peso's worth for 8 friggin’ years!

And yet—it seems to me—we are seeing less and less of the eligibility issue—was it actually an issue?—online!
Are folks growing tired of it, and/or are they more interested in Tea Potties, Dangerous Veterans, etc.???

the proverbial “quiet before the storm?”

one way or the other SOMEBODY is gonna get a hold of Hussein's birth certificate...and then the Shiite is gonna hit the fan...I still can't imagine ANYONE spending close to a million dollars fighting legal actions when a simple $12.50 Birth Certificate would resolve all challenges...there is something definitely not Kosher about this guy!

The simple 12.50$ bc is NO problem—as incompetent as gubmint is they could manage a dead bang bc if/when they absolutely must!

The point here is in-yer-face-fvck-you arrogance!
They not only rule—they create reality—all on yer dime!

The post pinged to is close, very close ... and you might recall that it was the subpreme court which fabricated the specious right to hire a hit on an alive unborn child, a ruling (not an interpretation, an activist judges ruling from imperious black robes) which is not only contrary to what the DI and Const. teach US but anathema to godly values! The subpreme court can be and has been thoroughly corrupted just like any other arm of federal oligarchy.

You might also ask yourself, 'if there is any constitutional reason to avoid the issue of requiring a man to prove he is Constitutionally eligible to be sworn in, it is incumbent upon YOUR government to share that reasoning with you! By allowing the ignoring of citizen pleadings, the Constitutional contract which held you and me as the actual sovereigns of this nation has been abrogated, ended, pissed upon, and set aside for the advent of the demcorat run federal oligarchy.

Unspent campaign funds: claim them as income, or turn them over to the DNC?

Be interesting to see some paperwork, wouldn't it? Ralph Nader has been working this scam for years, as have assorted congresscritters, even Mayors!

If they use public matching funds, the trickery is with the initial private donations, which are promptly whisked away. If there is no public funding, the sky's the limit on what they can and do steal or misdirect.

THE CORRUPTION AND GREED at the top of the oligarchy heap is galactic in depth and breadth.

Thankfully,

GOD ALMIGHTY IS SETTING THEM UP TO BE

FOOLS-TO-THE-MAX.

there is rumor that a printing press capable of forging a 1961 style BC was sold in Toronto. More here.

BLESSED BE THE NAME AND WORD OF THE LORD.

The Bible notes that God

WILL HAVE THEM IN DERISION.

HE will laugh at their calamity and fall.

The MEEK, NOT the arrogant, greedy, rebellious etc.

WILL INHERIT THE EARTH.

And “meek” is an attitude toward God Almighty, NOT wimpishness.

BLESSED BE THE NAME AND WORD OF THE LORD.

GOD ALONE IS OUR ALL SUFFICIENCY.

WALK WITH GOD INTIMATELY . . .

or find out what eternal ALONE is all about.

Forgery is not necessary. I only hope that some field agent spook is pissed of enough to travel to Hawaii and infiltrate. And publish Obama’s REAL long form birth certificate to wikkileaks or equivalent.

It is going to come out, just a matter of time. Sooner is better than later, otherwise congress will do something stupid like legitimize the Kenyan.

most likely, either 1) they know he has a valid bc, but it has a different father than he claims, so it is none of their business in eligibility context, or 2) they suspect/know he doesn’t but aren’t going to fracture this country at the late hour the cases were being appealed to them last year.

he is so powerful now, i would not be suprised if he had taken personal possession of the original. He went to hawaii and legally sealed it, after all.

I speculate that SCOTUS is fully aware that Zero may be ineligible for the top job and - as they do with all cases - is thoroughly researching the legal ramifications of getting rid of him without causing civil war.
