Obama eligibility case will be heard on the merits !! Please distribute everywhere.

At the hearing today at the Federal Court building in Santa Ana, Judge Carter reportedly said the following: 1. There will be a trial. 2. It will be heard on the merits. 3. Nothing will be dismissed on proceedural issues. 4. The trial will be expeditious, and the judge pledged to give case priority. 5. Being a former Marine he realizes the importance of having a Constitutionally qualified POTUS/CINC. 6. Judge stated that if Obama isn't Constitutionally qualifed he needs to leave the White House.

13. No, I believe they will shun a Marine that disgraced the uniform

by being tossed out of the service with a less than honorable discharge.

4. Actually - it's not quite what the OP says:

The case, Alan Keyes, et al. v Barack H. Obama, et al. was filed on Inauguration Day and is one of a raft of suits alleging Obama is ineligible to be president because he is not a "natural born citizen.” Such claims have fared badly in court to date. In December, for example, the Supreme Court dismissed without comment a case challenging Obama’s right to take the oath of office.

Perhaps because of that history, Orly Taitz, the lawyer who filed the current suit, was greatly cheered by Monday’s hearing. "He's very determined to hear the case on the merits," Taitz said, referring to the judge. "He stated, the country needs to know if Mr. Obama is legitimate, if he can legitimately stay in the White House."

That’s not quite the way Asst. U.S. Atty. David DeJute heard the judge’s comments. Thom Mrozek, a spokesman for the U.S. Attorney's Office, said that “the judge did make a bunch of comments about having the matter correctly and thoroughly aired, once and if they got to the merits of the actual lawsuit, which was not the subject of today's discussion."

The key word is “if,” Mrozek stressed. “We're literally at procedural grounds at this point in time," he said.

At a previous hearing, Carter had ruled that Taitz had not properly served the case on Obama. In Monday's hearing, both Taitz and DeJute tried to prematurely argue the merits of the case. Carter, a former marine, told both parties that the case could easily be tied up for months or another year on procedural technicalities. A better approach would be for Taitz just to file the paperwork so that the case could proceed without more delays, the judge said.

Once the paperwork is filed, the government has 60 days to respond.

These nuts just can't seem to go away. I'm appalled that a paper would print such trash. But then, that's why I don't pay for it. The online edition is free, and if that changes, I won't get that either.

[JayMusgrove]

15. That really is an ugly right wing nut-job paper you got there in IL.

This in the state from which Obama comes???

Geeze!

[SeattleGirl]

8. Ooooh, is Carter an......

activist judge????????????

[and-justice-for-all]

10. Well everyone but those idiots knows that his birth in Hawaii is legit..

I hope it is more of a "let the morons have their say and then we will end the bullshit." kind of hearing.

The case does not have any legitimacy, it is nonsense and a waste of everyone's time.

[JuniperLea]

14. My thoughts exactly...

I hope this is the end of it... but of course, it won't be. There will be some big conspiracy theory about how the judge is part of the deal.

The GOP are pit bulls. Once they bite down on something, anything, they don't let go. It could be a can of mace, spraying them back in the face... crying, whimpering, horrible pain, and they simply will not let go.
