I have no hope that this will go anywhere. Our country has been stolen from us, right under our noses.

“Harvard Law dean Elena Kagan was confirmed today by the Senate as the nation’s first female solicitor general, representing the administration before the Supreme Court.”

“She and President Obama taught together at the University of Chicago Law School during the 1990s.”

Thanks for the ping — I’ll be praying urgently that this situation is actually investigated. God bless Orly Taitz no matter the outcome on this. She has more guts, and probably more brains than 3/4 of the people in this country!

[PS - My prayers are doubling now. Hubby just got off the phone with his boss an hour ago, and was laid off for the rest of the week (to be played by ear as far as if he’ll go back, and when. Boss says it should be OK, but none of us know what’s next on Obama’s agenda and how that will affect us all). OBAMA NEEDS TO BE IMPEACHED and/or ARRESTED and removed from office. Even if we can’t do it by proving fraud, we MUST do it because of the laws already passed by this Congress. All JMHO.]

Wasn’t the current Solicitor General appointed by President Obama?

She got sworn in last Friday I believe.

Biden’s Gridiron Humor- Is Obama Laughing? - ALAN KEYES
America’s Independent Party ^ | March 24, 2009 | Alan Keyes

Posted on Tuesday, March 24, 2009 9:55:04 AM by EternalVigilance

Loyal to Liberty

Today WND reports that Congressman Bill Posey is being jeered at and ridiculed by the leftist media and some of his colleagues in the US Congress. Why? He dared to propose a piece of legislation “that would require future presidential candidates to document their eligibility.” Apparently the idea that people in Congress would actually fulfill their oaths of office and seek the information required to assure respect for the US Constitution is now considered insane.

Ridicule is a standard tactic of deceivers trying to discredit anyone who draws attention to their dishonesty. With respect to the eligibility issue, however, it requires very little thought and just a modicum of common sense to see through the ploy. The reason for mobilizing the jeering section is also clear. Admitting that in future it would be appropriate to verify the eligibility of candidates for President strongly implies that it would be appropriate to do so now.

The partisan and media hacks desperately seeking to marginalize the issue of Obama’s eligibility (including Vice-President Biden) must deal with one hard fact: Barack Obama has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars paying lawyers to prevent access to his full birth certificate and any other records that might have a bearing on the question of his citizenship status.

Given this fact, let’s for a moment ignore the Obama faction’s mobocratic tactics, and apply some common sense logic.

Either Obama has a reason for his behavior, or he doesn’t.

If he doesn’t, the behavior is irrational. Irrational behavior is generally not taken as conclusive evidence of sanity.

If Obama’s behavior is rational, then it’s logical to conclude that he wishes to keep from public view something contained in his full birth certificate, or other records that may reflect its content. Some fact not otherwise known is being hidden from the public. It may have a bearing on the issue of his Constitutional eligibility to serve as President, or it may not. In either case, he is so concerned about its possible public impact that he would rather damage the perceived authority of the Constitution (a direct violation of his sworn duty as a public official of the United States) than let it be known. It’s hard to imagine anything contained in a birth certificate that would be matter for such personal embarrassment as to justify this dereliction of public duty. No sane person, and I think especially no right thinking American, would hold an infant responsible for the sins or views of his parents. But perhaps merely avoiding personal embarrassment is not the reason for his efforts to conceal.

Assuming that Obama knows the contents of his full birth certificate, he would also know whether or not they contradict public statements he has made, or that his campaign made use of, about his background. In that case, the issue is not about the views or sins of his parents, but about his own less than candid behavior. Has he lied to the public about himself? Has he fabricated elements of his background in order to garner sympathy and support? Do these lies have a bearing on the Constitutional issue? Whether they do or not, sustained, conscious and orchestrated deception must have a definite bearing on the public’s appraisal of his character, his trustworthiness and therefore his suitability for the nation’s highest office of trust. If the election campaign he conducted was based on fictions and lies, was the outcome a valid reflection of the public’s will, or a manipulated result achieved by dint of fraud and deceit?

Though it’s generally considered bad form to explain a joke, I’ll take the risk of offering a reflection on Vice-President Biden’s telling joke about the birth certificate issue at the Gridiron dinner last weekend. “You know, I never realized just how much power Dick Cheny had until my first day on the job. I walked into my office, and you know how the outgoing president always leaves the incoming president a note in his desk?” he asked rhetorically. “I opened my drawer and Dick Cheney had left me Barack Obama’s birth certificate.” Now, on the surface this seems to be a joke about Dick Cheney’s ability to get what nobody else has access to. Not far from that surface, however, the joke is not about the power Cheney had, but about the power Biden would have if the full birth certificate were in his possession. It’s an aging maxim in this information age that ‘information is power.’ In this case, the information Obama desperately seeks to conceal represents power over him and therefore over the United States of America. Here’s the question: Who has that power? Biden may joke about it. I somehow doubt that Obama is laughing. And neither should we.

"......the Officer also stated that all the documents that were given to Chief Justice Roberts at Iowan University are now at the Supreme Court and are also being analyzed."Iowan University?

IIRC he was at the University of Idaho, in Moscow Idaho when she gave him the documents.

"Yep and she’s never tried a case in a court."

There's always a first, might as well make it a historical one. B.T.W. what about Gary Kreep and the United States Justice Foundation? Isn't she working with them regarding that case?

I’ve got just one simple request: produce the birth certificate, Mr. Obama.

The fact that a great deal of legal effort is being expended to prevent that is very, very telling.

Give it time the moment is gaining strength. I give Obama 12 months max. People will be climbing all over the band wagon looking for an excuse to get rid of the Obama presidency.

Yup, see my post #14.

My guess is it's a typo.

Idaho or Iowa it doesn’t matter. It’s accurate enough for Obama to get punch drunk and glassy eyed.

She met Scalia first. She gave him the dossier we sent to Eric Holder. That is how we learned the Justices never heard any of the cases. So she brought everything she had to Moscow Idaho and gave them to Roberts in front of a very, very large amount of people.

In this case, the information Obama desperately seeks to conceal represents power over him and therefore over the United States of America. Here’s the question: Who has that power?

China..Russia...Iran...Hamas....Chavez...Castro...N.Korea....Geitner...Hillary....?????
