Breaking: Justice Thomas to Force Court to Look at Obama Citizenship Case

From Macsmind:

“December 3, 2008) - In a highly unusual move, U.S. Associate Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas has asked his colleagues on the court to consider the request of an East Brunswick, N.J. attorney who has filed a lawsuit challenging President-elect Barack Obama’s status as a United States citizen.

Thomas’s action took place after Justice David Souter had rejected a petition known as an application for a stay of writ of certiorari that asked the court to prevent the meeting of the Electoral College on Dec. 15, which will certify Obama as the 44th president of the United States and its first African-American president.

The court has scheduled a Dec. 5 conference on the writ — just 10 days before the Electoral College meets.

Pastorius,

Good, lets get to the bottom of this Citizenship controversy and get it over with.

Anonymous,

If the court determines that Obama is not a natural born citizen of the US and is not eligible for the presidency, I don't know what bad things will happen other than a constitutional crisis, but it will be necessary to preserver the integrity of the constitution. If the court determines that he wasn't born a citizen, so the constitution disqualifies him, and leads to a crisis, so be it. The constitution is not something the American people have a right to just ignore. However, I doubt it will lead to a civil war. For one thing, I don't think that many of Obama's supporters would be willing to die for him.

Or at least willing to die to put him in the white house.

I think there are people out there who would like a civil war, and I don't think those people are all "negroes".

I don't think we will have a civil war.

Instead, my hunch is we'll find out the Barack Obama really is an American citizen, and that he has been playing possum, watching us flail and look silly.

That being said, were we to find out that Obama is not a citizen, and were it ruled that he could not be President, I do believe we would have very bad problems in this country.

I think the reason he is hiding his birth certificate is real father is listed and it's not who he is saying it is.

Sameno Kami,

You are too negative.

Let's face the facts:
In spite of their politics, the Democrat party is the smoothest-running and most powerful political machine in world history. Does anyone really believe they'd let Obama run for Prez if he wasn't qualified? Or, does anyone believe that Obama is slick enough to slip this by the whole of the party?

I'd love to see him ousted, but I don't see it happening. Yes, he's hiding something, but either he's a natural-born citizen, or he and the Dems have covered his tracks well enough that we'll never know.

Either way, he's our next president. Best plan at this point is to go into damage control mode and be ready to clean up the mess the Dems leave when they get voted out of power in two years (4 in Obama's case).
