Court Case - 25 Sept 09 Update - back to main page
from Judge
Carter's Courtroom
Citizen Wells blog reports that many concerned veterans and citizens attended
the hearing today in Federal Court in Santa Ana in the
lawsuit against Barack Obama
to determine his eligibility to be President and Commander in Chief. About 150
people showed up, almost all in support of the lawsuit to demand that Obama
release his birth certificate and other records that he has hidden from the
American people.
Judge David Carter refused to hear Obama's request for
dismissal today, instead setting a hearing date for Oct. 5, since Obama's
attorneys had just filed the motion on Friday. He indicated there was almost no
chance that this case would be dismissed. Obama is arguing this lawsuit was
filed in the wrong court if you can believe that. I guess Obama would prefer a
"kangaroo court" instead of a Federal court. Assuming Judge Carter denies
Obama's motion for dismissal, he will likely then order expedited discovery
which will force Obama to release his birth certificate in a timely manner.
The judge, who is a former U.S. Marine, repeated several
times that this is a very serious case which must
be resolved quickly so that the troops know that their Commander in Chief is
eligible to hold that position and issue
lawful orders to
our military in this time of war. He basically said Obama must prove his
eligibility to the court. He said Americans deserve to know the truth about
Obama.
The two U.S. Attorneys representing Barack Obama tried everything they could to
sway the judge that this case was frivolous, but Carter would have none of it
and cut them off several times. Obama's attorneys left the courtroom after the
90 minute hearing looking defeated and nervous.
Lucas Smith was at the hearing. He read his signed affidavit (at link) and
presented what he says is Obama's original Kenyan Certificate of Birth (at
link).
Court records show that summonses were issued in the case of an Army captain
seeking to stop her deployment by questioning the legitimacy of Barack Obama's
presidency.
Capt. Connie Rhodes claims Obama is "an illegal usurper" and "an unlawful
pretender" and that she cannot lawfully act under his authority. Defendants
include Obama , U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates and Thomas MacDonald, Fort
Benning garrison commander. According to the summonses, the defendants have 20
days to answer the complaint once received; they have two months if they are an
officer or employee of the federal government.
Great day in America for the U.S. Constitution.. The truth about Barack Obama's
eligibility will be known fairly soon -- Judge Carter practically guaranteed it!
Video from the press conference after the hearing coming soon. Congratulations
to plaintiff's attorney Dr. Orly Taitz. She did a great job and won some huge
victories today. She was fearless. The expedited trial has been set for Jan.
26, 2010, just 4 1/2 months from now.
Here's Dr. Taitz' video comments.
I have a real problem with
Obama being represented by
Department of Justice
(DoJ) civil servants.
I asked one attorney, and here's what she had to say:
Well, to be honest, I'm not sure how the
Department of Justice attorneys don't have a
conflict of interest.
While I do not completely understand it's authority, my assumption is that the
DoJ is similar to the States' District Attorney's Office; established to defend
the Constitution and prosecute those charged with crimes against the United
States and/or its People.
Sooooooo, isn't it the DoJ who should be charged with the responsibility for
bringing the claims of Obama's ineligibility on our behalf as opposed to
defending him?????? Very concerning.
