WASHINGTON ? The Supreme Court has turned down an emergency appeal from a New Jersey man who says President-elect Barack Obama is ineligible to be president because he was a British subject at birth. The court did not comment on its order Monday rejecting the call by Leo Donofrio of East Brunswick, N.J., to intervene in the presidential election.

Donofrio says that since Obama had dual nationality at birth ? his mother was American and his Kenyan father at the time was a British subject ? he cannot possibly be a "natural born citizen," one of the requirements the Constitution lists for eligibility to be president.

Donofrio also contends that two other candidates, Republican John McCain and Socialist Workers candidate Roger Calero, also are not natural-born citizens and thus ineligible to be president.


If find it mildly amusing that Donofrio would also lump John McCain into this group....
People we need to let a sleeping dog sleep.
I guess we still have Alan Keyes demands........rofl

Wouldn't it have been better for the courts to look into this so we can end the rumors and BS now??

Are we going to put up with four years of this crap?

I think they just did. But I bet you would've loved for them to hold court over this nonsense, wouldn't you?

1. Did you miss the part where the court turned it down without comment? Meaning they didn't really look into as much as just decided to not bother at this time. That means this could still work its way through the court system, unless it has been thrown out by every other court.

2. Did you miss my lines that called this 'BS' and 'crap' ??

As long as people like Limbaugh and Hannity are on the air, yes.

Rush and Hannity have never talked about this stuff. I am sure they think it is BS like the rest of the country.

Try again.

Wrong, Rush has brought this up and tried to give it more footing...

On the October 23 broadcast of his radio show, Limbaugh said:

"But this birth certificate business, this lawsuit that a guy named Phillip Berg filed in Philadelphia in August for Obama to produce his genuine birth certificate, and he still hasn't replied, he hasn't done so."

Limbaugh later added:

"And this birth certificate business -- I'm just wondering if something's up. I have no clue, and I -- folks, I'm telling you, this has not reached the threshold until now, and it's now popping up all over the place."


So it doe snot meet his standards, yet he keeps bringing it up. :roll:

This was the courts looking into it. There are just several standards of 'looking into it'. To deny something cert means that the USSC cannot even muster a minority of justices who think there is a chance of the case being determined differently than the lower courts decided. (ie: throwing it out)

Yes, that's curious. I find I rarely actually LOL either, and I never ROFLMAO. I might do a little closed mouth "heh heh" that can be heard mostly only by myself.

ROFL.

Really? You can produce your original birth certificate in about five minutes? Not a copy, not a state-certified copy with the neat embossed stamp, but the original? That is the standard that the yokels have set for Obama. Until each doubter receives an original Obama birth certificate of their very own, the "issue" will never die.


Edit: I'm proud of you, PJ. In this case, indirectly, you almost admitted you were wrong.

I just hope they don't spend $55 million on this issue like they did to uncover certain spots on Monica Lewinsky's dress. Yuck!

So, if you had a fire or were robbed then you wouldn't have your original ever again for the rest of your life. If that happened, does that mean you should be barred from being president because all you could produce was a state certified replacement?

I think being a P&N poster disqualifies me from public office :)
