"Yikes! I Might Be...Militia!"
I was on the road and nearly missed some important news about the issue of Barack Obama’s birth certificate, a subject about which I’ve published at least 18 posts during the past two years:
A Family Security Matters report Wednesday revealed that Barack Obama’s lawyer, Robert F. Bauer, is threatening D.C. attorney John Hemenway with “sanctions,” because he is simply requesting that Obama show proof of his birth. Don’t believe it? FSM offers a copy of the shocking letter dated April 3.
Click here to read the FSM report.

Good for Mr Bauer!! The leal system has had it with these ridiculous, frivolous lawsuits! As a DC attorney, we’ve been begging the Obama lawyers (all doing it PRO BONO) to ask for monetary sanctions. The legal community backs up Mr Bauer who will undoubtedly get what he wants, mainly because of the other sides incompetent, ethically challenged lawyers and because attorney Hemenway is now feeble minded crackpot. And I know that for a fact!

Jasmine — I’m afraid most of the readers of this blog will disagree with you (and they’ll tell you how to spell the word, “legal,” as in “legal system”).

Jasmine,
Couldn’t agree with you more. That darn Constitution has been causing so many problems over the past couple of centuries.
Let’s get rid of it! So many anachronisms in it. That whole freedom of speech thing is overrated, anyway.
What I especially do not like is the prohibition of titles. If it weren’t for that, I’d be a duke or earl or something.
We could start by getting rid of the courts — or short of that, we could start by not allowing anyone to use them, say, by denying standing to everyone. (I would say let’s first get rid of the lawyers, but someone else has already grabbed that tag line, and besides it looks like you’re a lawyer yourself.)
Keep up the good work!
Save a tree — don’t release Obama’s birth certificate!

Tory — You must be smokin’ something. No sober/sensible person would utter such nonsense.

Hotoffthepress2,
Hey! I’m just as sober as Jasmine! Maybe more so.
But I do like her thinking. Perhaps getting rid of the entire Constitution in one stroke is too much. Nibbling away at it clause by clause seems to be best we can do for now.
Today the Presidential Eligibility Clause — tomorrow the Title of Nobility Clause!
I’ve got dibs on the Duke of Chicago!

Jasmine,
I am honestly and totally surprised that lawyers are actually working pro bono to hide/suppress information that can shed light on the eligiblity question.
I can truly understand hired guns doing this, since Obama certainly has the right to obfuscate the information as much as possible. (And it’s up to his political handlers to figure out how to spin it politically and for the media — for which they have been doing a heckuva job).
However, it’s simply not comprehensible to me that hiding this info fits someone’s model of idealism.

NOBODY HIDES WHAT WON’T HURT ‘EM…

The letter from Perkins Coie can only be interpreted as threatening if Hemenway has absolutely no case.
You’re exaggerating. Hemenway has been found to have no case, and now he has a demand from an attorney that he stop harassing the courts and the President without evidence. That’s not a threat — that’s asking for good manners. Hemenway is the threat.

I also regret that you didn’t mention the real threats, from an anti-Obama blogger, to the Secret Service. The Portland Oregonian notes that James Cuneo was indicted for his threats to the Secret Service.
You guys are pushing this too far, well beyond reason.

“NOBODY HIDES WHAT WON’T HURT ‘EM…”
reliapundit, Obama is standing for principle. Sure, Obama could trivially release his certificate. And we all know for absolute, positive sure that there is nothing in it. We could all swear on a stack of Bibles that there is nothing in it.
After all, the President of the United States has said so, and who would doubt word of a President?
And the principle of hiding one’s birth weight vastly exceeds the meager principle of adhering to an outdated Constitution.
George III had it right!
We Anti-Constitutionalists Must Stick Together!

Tory — You’re delusional and need to go back downstairs into your mother’s basement until it wears off.

Anyone who has sued Barack Obama aught to add another suit, one against him for costs of litiigation that should have been unnecessary if he provided proof of his eligibility to be president according to the Constitution.
Details of charges and evidences of forgery in several documents submitted by the Obama group are at my websites in court style. It is our responsibility to keep this information alive until Barack Obama is forced to release His identity information to quell these questions. There is no harm to him if he has nothing to hide. The harm is to the justice system and media being overwhelmed until this is no longer in question. We all only seek the protection of our Constitution from being available to foreign nationals, now or in the future.
It is reported that even the state of Hawaii would not accept the Certification of Live Birth presented by Barack Obama without further documentation.

hotoffthepress2 —
Now I’d say that I’m no more delusional than all the other folks who don’t want to stick to the Eligibility Clause.
Indeed, I’m a lot less delusional than they are because I know where I’m heading and why.
The other folks who are ignoring the Constitution clause by clause are deluding themselves into thinking they can pick and choose which clauses are important and which can be safely ignored.
The only difference is that I’ll tell you straight out what I’m doing and why …. The other folks and heading in the same direction will eventually end up with the same results, but those folks will rationalize till the cows come home.
Then they’ll act surprised when we get there.
Yep, Titles of Nobility can’t be far off now….

Just have one of Obama’s minons, tell the liberal
leftest media, who was the attending physician
at his birth?, and what one of the two Hawaii hospital was he born in? Why in the hell is obama spending millions to keep a $15.00 copy of his long form Birth Certificate confidencial.

I thought Obama was above the law. Maybe he’s above and beyond a silly thing like proof of eligibility.
17 Ed Darrell // Jul 17, 2009 at 3:47 pm
You whiners are still at it? Get over it. Obama’s eligible. Obama’s the boss.
Even sour grapes rot after a few weeks . . .

Ed — Still at it? You’re the one who is slow to the party. This post was originally published April 17, 2009. Apparently, you’re a slow reader — the perfect Obama supporter.
