It was not a joking mood when Serrano and Thomas had this exchange. The awkwardness seemed palpable to me when I watched it. The issues of race and experience had been central to the discussion up to that point, and then Thomas awkwardly brought up, of his own volition, the issue of birth place.

To expand on the March 2007 Appropriation's hearing, I could only see the "good-natured banter" coming from Justice Thomas that he was smiling like a Cheshire cat and maybe let out a chuckle when Serrano brought up the issue of presidential eligibility for Puerto Ricans. I saw or heard no bantering from Congressman Serrano who seemed to deadpan his remarks. You can speculate to why Thomas was smiling.

“Says Pilsner, who’s waiting for heads to explode because he authored a post on a Birther thread that isn’t witheringly anti Birther. “

We’ll let this one slide. But don’t let it happen again.

Hey, if this is your first post on a “birther” thread that isn’t witheringly “anti-birther” then how about a round of drinks on me? lol. Much better than exploding heads. It’s at least good to agree whenever we CAN.

Keep in mind that the poster you are interacting with has admitted to lying in order to advance its anti-American beliefs. And has also admitted to being delusional schizophrenic who has close imaginary friendships with public figures. You can check its posting history for more.

Oh yeah, I know all the troll players here, especially this Soros puppet.

Gingrich’s ‘Monica’

Big deal. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich has a girlfriend.
Suddenly, we’re supposed to believe, the nation cares about such things. Now the press has an obligation to expose the intimate details of public officials’ “private lives.”

Personally, I couldn’t give a darn.

After all, Gingrich is the ex-speaker, not the current speaker. There are no allegations he raped anyone. I guess about the worst thing you could say is that he was a no-good louse of a husband.

I sympathize with the two Mrs. Gingriches. But is this really a matter of national ....

Maybe this one will take you to the right place.

I see everyone else saying it was just a joke the way Justice Thomas made his comment, but I think that is the way one Justice chides that others about something he believes they are missing the boat on.

I dont know if there are four votes to hear this issue but there is definitely at least one vote to hear it and decide who has standing, what does Natural Born mean and who is the proper decision maker when it comes to eligibility for President

Nonsense.

I'll repeat. None have been heard by the court so none have involved the Solicitor General. What you posted was the filing that will be going to conference and which, if past history is any judge, will get no further.

There has not been one single recorded dissent from any of the denials of certiorari in any of the prior eligibility cases. We will see what happens this time, but I predict, once again, a denial of cert. with no dissents.

Should Kagan and Sotomayor recuse themselves, in your opinion? Why or why not?

None of the Supreme Court Justices appointed by Richard Nixon recused themselves from hearing the Watergate tapes case, United States v. Nixon, which was decided unanimously against Nixon and led to his resignation.

A statutory citizen can never be considered a “natural born” citizen.

A “natural born” citizen just is, and requires no statute, law or constitutional amendment to make him/her so.

ALL statutory citizens are born with a first generation tie to another nation by birthplace and/or blood, but NEVER is that the case with any natural born citizens who are only American.

I posted:

“Serrano noted Thomas being OK with somebody becoming a SCOTUS justice who had never been a judge (which applied to Sotomayor) and Thomas added that a person doesn’t have to be born in the US either, to be a SCOTUS justice (which also applied to Sotomayor).”

It has been pointed out to me that Sotomayor was born in the US. So I apologize for the error.

That makes it stand out a bit more that Thomas brought up the birthplace then. Somewhat out of the blue, that comment.
