PLAINTIFFS’ PRELIMINARY RESPONSE TO DEFENDANTS’ MOTION TO

DISMISS, to be supplemented by filing Plaintiffs’ Second

Amended Complaint on or before October 2, 2009

Come now the Plaintiffs with this their Preliminary

Response toDefendants’ September 4, 2009, Document 56

Motion to Dismiss (with reservation of rights to Respond

further by filing Plaintiffs’ Second Amended Complaint

on or before Friday, October 2, 2009).

POLITICAL RELATIVITY vs. CONSTITUTIONAL ABSOLUTES: IS THE
POLITICAL QUESTION DOCTRINE VIABLE AS A MEANS TO
EVADECOMPLIANCE WITH UNVARIABLE STANDARDS?

Fundamentally, this case comes down to a single

bifurcated question question: (1A) does the constitution

mean what it says when it lays down absolute parameters,

such as the age and citizenship qualifications to be

President, and (1B) to whom does the investigation and

enforcement of this constitutional provision: to the

Congress, the People, or can the President get by merely

asserting his qualifications without presenting evidence

which would be competent as Summary Judgment

(admissible) evidence under Rule 56 of the Federal Rules

of Civil Procedure? The Plaintiffs have brought their

complaint as a matter of first impression to ask this

Court to determine, find, hold, and rule that the

investigation and enforcement of this right belongs to

the people, even members of a discrete and insular

minority of the people, even if this group lacks

majoritarian political power. Plaintiffs respond to the

Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss and ask this Court to

rule, pursuant to the First and Ninth Amendments that

they may sue to enforce constitutional absolutes, such

as the constitutional requirements for President of the

United States. Plaintiffs assert an inalienable,

reserved right to sue for Constitutional conformity in

this case even though they concede that the Defendants

have shown that primary, first line actions could and

should have been taken by members of Congress or the

Electoral College, pursuant to the Twelfth and

Twentieth Amendments for instance. Case

8:09cv00082DOCAN,Document 56, Filed 09/04/2009, Page 2o

of 32: Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss at 13, ll. 114. Of

course, what Congress must do in the case of obvious

electoral deadlocks or recognized and admitted problems

with qualification for office is not at all the point

raised by Plaintiffs’ complaint and evidence.

Plaintiffs’complaint and evidence allege and confirm

that the Presidency in 2008 was taken by fraud, and not

even by fraud in the counting of votes, but by fraud in

the traditional common law sense of a material

misrepresentation of an important fact upon which

Plaintiffs could be reasonably expected to rely to their

detriment, and to the detriment of constitutional

government. The Constitution’s textual commitment of

this responsibility is a responsibility that Congress

has embraced. Both the House and the Sentate have

standing committees with jurisdiction to decide

questions relating to Presidential elections. Idem:

Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss at 13, ll 1517. Where

Congress has done absolutely nothing to investigate or

prosecute a question, Defendants’ position appears to be

that this very inaction or acquiescence by Congress

creates a presumption of legitimacy. Apparently,

Defendants would have this Court believe, hold, rule,

and accept that utter and complete inaction, stony

silence even by the Vice‐President of an opposing party

sitting as President of the Senate during the

certification of the electoral vote to Congress pursuant

to 3 U.S.C. §15, is and must be sufficient to satisfy

the people that the President has met the Constitutional

qualifications for office. Idem: Motion to Dismiss at

1314.

Anyone get the impression that a lot more legal help is coming out of the woodwork for this case with Judge Carter for Orly and I am sure that is also true on the Dark Side.

Yes, and I hope and pray the best and most help is for our side.

Yep. It looks like they’ve been going over Leo’s blog thoroughly.

And Leo is going to represent Miss Tickly in court in Hawaii!

They will be challenging the Hawaiian AG and those gorgons at records concerning the amendments Obama has been making to his “vital records”.

Thanks for posting this. I was looking for Taitz' response earlier. Eager to see how this fares.

This is a very well thought out response to the MTD. Judge Carter, if he is half the judge everyone has claimed he is, should have no trouble in throwing out the MTD.
Now, I will go back to my dark corner and recross my fingers and toes.

>>> Could someone explain this to a big fat dummie. Is this good or bad? My wife wants to know.

ROFL! ITS AWESOME! Blows the motion to dismiss clear out of the water.

It all boils down to how much the judge understands and believes in the constitution.

One of the arguments made was that if the courts do not act, then the people have no remaining recourse but armed revolution... which was pointed out as also being authorized in the constitution.

I knew, and so stated here on FR, that Buckwheat's August 2008 "vacation" was a birth certificate repair mission.

" Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss at 13, ll 1517. Where Congress has done absolutely nothing to investigate or prosecute a question "

Looks like the judge left room for doubt, and made up in his mind that Congress has done nothing to bring some kind of remedy to this.

As the Bible says, God uses the simple things to confound the wise.
There were those who said that ORLY was incompetent, and in fact, it was the DOJ lawyers who screwed up here......
Does anyone get the feeling that a certain someone is looking out for us ?

My first impression even though I am extremely tired is that this is a couple notches higher in quality that Orly had in the past. It expresses a lot of arguments that are backed in law and common sense. Among other things it challenged the past case dismissals based on standing, which by itself is new and unresolved. It gives Judge Carter a lot of options to hang is hat on to toss the MTD, By reference she also incorporated Kreeps response. Maybe just maybe Orly has calmed down a little and can see this thing through to a conclusion one way or the other. It is worth the read and expresses many thoughts people here have had about the government's and past judges cavalier attitude towards WE THE PEOPLE. I hope Judge Land in Georgia sleeps well after reading this,

We the people deserve to have our grievances heard and given a fair investigation. If not the government is useless to us. We are a Republic not a Democracy and the Constitution must stand.

My only reservation is that it is too long and peppered with flowery language that judges, as a rule, tend to get very impatient with.
While I agree with all the points, it looks like she went overboard on the rhetoric.
I will be praying for patience from Judge Carter.

and that the constitution provides for “THE PEOPLE” to have redress through the courts when elected officials and bodies (congress) fails to carry out it’s constitutional duty.

THANK YOU!!!!!

Judge Carter is a very measured, patient man and takes his time not only reading but also perusing and cogitating on what he reads.

IMO he needs just enogh to hand his hat, nothing more. He is not opposed in advance as was/is Judge Land.

Far be it for any judge to rule on style and verbage.

I read most of it in about 20 minutes... and i’m slow.

Overlay that with this Judge (Carter) who is a Marine. Once a Marine always a Marine. He was in Afghanistan recently. He was wonded at Khe Sanh in Vietnam and received a Purple Heart and Bronze Star. This may have been one of the nastiest battles/sieges in Vietnam. The Marines held this base for months.

Now we have an alleged Islamic sultan usurper telling our AMERICAN Marines they cannot fire back at the Taliban unless they are sure. Our boys are dying. The Pentagon is saying they need more troops in a war in an Islamic country where the alleged CIC may be a Muslim. The pressure is building on Afghanistan.

If this Judge does not understand the Constitution or believe in it with that backdrop then things are going to get....we you figure it out.

There are three branches of govt which are supposed to check each other’s power. The Executive has been corrupted. The Legislative - the same thing and they failed to do their job when Cheney was supposed to ask for objections and Pelosi rush it. The citizenry has gone to the Judicary as the third branch and is getting this “no standing” BS.

The public is also appealing to a supposed 4th branch mentioned by Scalia and Leo in the citizen grand juries which are going on. They have been presented cases and indictments to Judge Royce Lamberth in the DC district and they are being reviewed.

I suggest there may be a fifth branch the public may appeal and that is the military.

Proverbs 26:24-26 :
A malicious man disguises himself with his lips, but in his heart he harbors deceit.

Though his speech is charming, do not believe him, for seven abominations fill his heart.

His malice may be concealed by deception, but his wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.

“Praying is better.”

THAT is something that goes without saying for me. Prayer is something I do consciously and unconsciously every moment of every day.
