Are "birthers" ready to put President Obama's citizenship behind them?

   mikelongposted 14 years ago

   Emails have been spread around claiming that a Federal Court in California will be meeting tomorrow (1/26/2010) to determine if President Obama is qualified as a natural born American citizen to hold Executive office..
   
   This case was, of course, dismissed on October 29th of last year.
   
   This has not deterred people, some of which are my own family members, from believing firmly that 1) the case will be on the record tomorrow and 2) Obama is not a citizen.
   
   When tomorrow passes and no court session convened...will "birthers" go away?

      last time I checked, there were over 18 open, pending, and appealed court cases against Obama's presidency...
      
      I think there are valid points to the cases...if he has nothing to hide, why not just present the asked for documentation, and other proofs asked for...why is he spending millions to keep it all "covered up"?

    Many Americans believed that OBAMA could fix many of the issues that were given to him over-nite unfortunately many of us needed a reality check including myself. It takes time to re-build a nation it did not fall apart over-nite hence it cannot be fixed in a few months or even a few years. It will take our Country years after OBAMA is out of the White House to correct so many issues. Many of us have forgotten that BUSH started the mess and passed it on to OBAMA. OBAMA has made promises that is correct, but with all of the mess that was handed to him and a limited budget because our Country was already in the RED he has to figure out something. Many of us should be the solution and not the problem, let us ask ourselves, " If we were President, what would we have done differently?"

    I just wanted to jump in for a second. 
    
    The reason for our current recession is, basically, a credit crunch caused by poor investment decisions and massive losses on the part of many banks.  You could argue about the roots of this, but the basic cause remains.  Banks stopped lending because there had been too many years of easy money, and the money was suddenly disappearing.
    
    Now, as much as I hate the fact that the money went to Wall Street moguls and not to average Americans who were losing their jobs and homes, I want you to imagine something with me.
    
    Imagine that you work for a corporation.  Most of you do. 
    
    Imagine that your corporation goes to the bank this month, to get the loan they get every month - the one they use to buy inventory and/or make payroll. 
    
    Despite the fact that your employer has been getting this loan every month for the past 10 years, the bank refuses.  The bank is overleveraged in too many different places and is losing the equivalent of your salary every few seconds. 
    
    So.
    
    This month, your employer cannot buy inventory, and/or cannot make payroll.  What happens next?
    
    That was the situation we were in around October 2008. 
    
    If there had been no bailout, unemployment would be unimaginable.  This current recession would look like an extended spring break in the Bahamas. 
    
    Americas economy is like an alcoholic who has been smoking 3 packs of cigarettes a day for 40 years.  We basically just woke up in the emergency room.  In a situation like that, you can't just quit drinking and smoking and suddenly expect to be better the next day.

       No, most people do not work for corporations, they work for small businesses that do not go to bank once a month for a loan! The rest of what you said came from a very vivid imagination.

          Small businesses are corporations too, unless they are a sole proprietorship, which means that no one except the owner works there.
          
          And most businesses borrow money.

                   I work for a small business, a corporation.  We do not borrow money either.  I also work part time for another small corporation that is in debt up to its eyeballs.

                   However, my original point was that the bailout was intended to restart the commercial paper market, which is exactly what I described in my post:

    Arthur...how about the opinion of the presiding judge in the recently dismissed case:
    
    "This Court exercised extreme patience when Taitz endangered this case being heard at all by failing to properly file and serve the complaint upon Defendants and held multiple hearings to ensure that the case would not be dismissed on the technicality of failure to effect service.
    
    
    While the original complaint in this matter was filed on January 20, 2009, Defendants were not properly served until August 25, 2009. Taitz successfully served Defendants only after the Court intervened on several occasions and requested that defense counsel make significant accommodations for her to effect service. Taitz also continually refused to comply with court rules and procedure. Taitz even asked this Court to recuse Magistrate Judge Arthur Nakazato on the basis that he required her to comply with the Local Rules. See Order Denying Pls.’ Mot. For Modification of Mag. J. Nakazato’s Aug. 6, 2009, Order; Denying Pls.’ Mot. to Recuse Mag. J. Nakazato; and Granting Ex Parte App. for Order Vacating Voluntary Dismissal (Sep. 8, 2009).
    
    
    Taitz also attempted to dismiss two of her clients against their wishes because she did not want to work with their new counsel. See id.
    
    
    Taitz encouraged her supporters to contact this Court, both via letters and phone calls. It was improper and unethical for her as an attorney to encourage her supporters to attempt to influence this Court's decision. Despite these attempts to manipulate this Court, the Court has not considered any outside pleas to influence the Court's decision.
    
    
    Additionally, the Court has received several sworn affidavits that Taitz asked potential witnesses that she planned to call before this Court to perjure themselves. This Court is deeply concerned that Taitz may have suborned perjury through witnesses she intended to bring before this Court.
    
    
    While the Court seeks to ensure that all interested parties have had the opportunity to be heard, the Court cannot condone the conduct of Plaintiffs’ counsel in her efforts to influence this Court."
    
    
    Those are the words of Federal Judge/former U.S. Marine David Carter presiding in his official opinion..

    We have a UN Ambassador but in his narcissism Obama felt he was elected president of the world and sat himself as head of the UN security council.
