Hummmmmmmmmmm? This SCOTUS link was off yesterday afternoon, Obama again took The Oath of Office, and now it's back live. Maybe just a coincidence?
SCOTUS sent the maintenance guy out to look for a shovel to bury this with.
maybe all the hullabaloo this morning was a simple clerical issue as they wrote up new pages?
Where it will be denied, like all the other cases.

Which will dismiss it for lack of standing.

A case doesn't come off the Supreme Court's docket once it's filed. Orly, who admits on her blog that she doesn't understand Supreme Court procedure, got all hysterical over a computer glitch. Had she simply called the Court Clerk's office, they would have told her that the case was never taken off the docket.
She probably did call after office hours.
Exactly the opposite! Dr. Taitz is representing one of the candidates. Thus, her case has standing and then some.
You’re a patronizing one. Orly Taitz, obviously like the rest of us, has very little trust in the Obama machine with it’s legion of smoke and mirrors.
I’m sure she did investigate, but was probably stonewalled “administratively” before a definitve answer was provided.
Plus it is GOOD to keep the volume up on the issue.
Do not like your tone.
She admitted on her blog that she called after business hours, and that, when she called back this morning, they told her it was just a computer glitch and the case was still on the docket. In the meantime, she posted a hysterical screed on the internet claiming that Obama had ordered her case off the Supreme Court docket—a legal impossibility. If she was looking for a way to hurt her credibility with the Court, she found a good one.
That does not change the issue of “when will Obama provide his original birth certificate?” Until he proves that he is a natural born American citizen, he is NOT eligible to serve as President.
After having witnessed the crowd’s obasm on 1/20/09, I truly doubt that there is one person in all of government with the courage to challenge Obama’s eligibility for POTUS, and he knows it. We seem to forget that we are no longer the Home of the Brave.
More spectators were at Reagan’s ceremony!
“got all hysterical over a computer glitch”
Extremely hysterical, it was embarrassing to read.
Would not want her as my mouthpiece....LOL
maybe all the hullabaloo this morning was a simple clerical issue as they wrote up new pages?
***Seems like a distinct possibility.
She also got more visibility on the issue which is good. Anything that broadcasts this stuff as long and hard as posible is GOOD.
She did not hurt her credibility.
The people filing these suits have been treated abysmally and damn straight they need to broadcast the incompetence of the SCOTUS “glinch”.
LOL LOL
Aren’t you witty:-)
NOT.
Stay on point you catty thing.
Men seem to like to use the word hysterical when referring to women.
However, since women get hysterectomies to remove the hysterical side of their personalities, I’m sure this makes men happier because it was they who devised the procedure for just such coincidences.
So, if Dr Orly Taitz has not had her hysteria removed surgically, then you are correct in stating she was acting hysterical. However, if she has had her hysteria removed surgically, then what will your reasoning be, oh wise and gracious males and masters?
/sarc
I’m with you on this! The Orly Taitz case at the Federal Court in Santa Ana, CA. also adds viability to issue.
No other Presidential Candidate has ever had to present a Birth Certificate, have they?
Why Obama?
IMHO, Obama has successfully wormed his way through a glaring loophole in the Constitution. O sure, there's some mighty impressive case law on what a "Natural Born" citizen is, but who's supposed to vet candidates? Who's supposed to sue whom? SCOTUS obviously doesn't know and would have to "legislate from the bench" to solve this one.
The "Indonesian Adoption" option? Fuggedaboutit. If (IF) he was a citizen and subsequently adopted in a foreign land as a minor, he is still a citizen.
Born in Hawaii? Yeah, sure. The Attorney General of the State of Hawaii could bring criminal charges if he felt that CLB posted on the web was a forgery, but so far no one has brought it up.
Smells to me that that Kenya/Sumatra Boy has succeeded in pulling a fast one. Just like his lies on his Illinois Bar App, these issues are rapidly disappearing from the light of day.
No one even knows what is supposed to happen if some ruling authority as yet unknown finds he is ineligible after being sworn in. The Founding Fathers never imagined such criminal chutzpah, leaving us in uncharted territory.
Bush, Reagan, Nixon, Ike, etc., etc., probably all provided their birth certificates to get into the military as I had to do.
PING!
