9th Circus = fix is in.
If we get lucky and somehow finally get to see Obama's Hawaii long form birth certificate in the near future---say, before the Nov. 2012 presidential election---and it shows that Obama is a liar and a fraud as many of us think he is, then I believe that the Supreme Court and the lower courts will end up being the biggest losers in the eyes of the American people when it comes to this Obama long form birth certificate mess.
I believe that the Supreme Court and the lower courts will lose tremendous respect among the American people because of the way the courts frustrated and stonewalled persons who begged the courts over and over to release Obama's Hawaii long form birth certificate.
As most of us know, the courts used an obscure legal term of "lack of standing" that many Americans had never heard of to uphold a court's ruling that Obama's long form birth certificate was off limits to the American people.
Yes, if Obama's long form birth certificate is released in the near future and we find out that Obama is really the liar and fraud that many of us believe he is, then the disrespect, scorn, and almost hatred that the American people will shower upon the Supreme Court and the lower courts will be tremendous.
If we assume a court can't remove an unqualified candidate—I'm not saying a court cannot—surely the court can refer the matter to the House judiciary committee for impeachment.
Is it really most appropriate for U.S. Attorneys to argue on candidate Obama's behalf? He's president now, but this is not about official action.
The notion of "standing" has gotten out of control. The 9th circus is waiting on the state supreme court to determine if the persons who place a measure on the ballot of standing to defend it in court when the AG and Governor refuse. Now we see it argued voters, electors, candidates lack standing because they're no worse off then everyone else?
The most ridiculous part of all: the documentation is easily obtained and only hidden because the candidate chooses to hide it.
These court arguments make it even more imperative for states to enact eligibility law so this circus does not happen again. Unfortunately, it's not been happened:
NE - LB 654 hearing held as of 3/10/11. HI - HB1116 Rida Cabanilla (D!) intro'd bill 1/11 to supply BC for "persons of civic prominence" upon request and $100 fee. MO - Failed in '09.

"Missed Deadline for General Bill Transmittal" AZ - Failed in '10 - passed house, senate refused to vote. Tried in 2/11, died in senate committee. IN - Intro'd 1/11. Died in committee. NH - Intro'd 3/11. Died in committee.
A request for oral argument is shocking, knowing that it will invite a media circus (even without Taitz) given the eligibility vulnerability of Obama and hysterical stonewalling and lack of transparency by the DOJ to date.
Maybe Obama isn't so precious anymore?
The Ninth Circus will inevitably toss this case out.
Good.
The hearing will be in Pasadena.
