Gene's Footnotes

I have never been impressed by the messenger and always inspect the message, which I now understand is not the norm. People prefer to filter out discordant information. As such, I am frequently confronted with, "Where did you hear that...." Well, here you go. If you want an email version, send me an email.

Indonesian Barry and the Supreme Court accepts NJ case regarding dual citizenship

Just a no brainer, here. Its the weekend. I put this in to remind everyone I am usually a year ahead of the media, so keep up with us.  These items qualify as "told you so."  Kathy sent me this.  We all missed it, apparently.  The article was probably was published in the used car pages.

The joke is at the end of the AP release:  a review concerning Obama's legitimacy, when done, will be handed over to the Attorney General, Eric Holder for review.


Now, lets see. He is a friend of Obama who was appointed by Obama and will now take it upon himself to review whether Obama is president when Holder was appointed, which, if so, would confirm Holder had the right to review the document, there being no other problems with this arrangement like a conflict of interest.

If Mr. Obama is not president, then Mr. Holder will issue a finding that he cannot issue a finding because he is not the Attorney General, but, then, did he have the authority to make such a decision in the first place?  Or, he may claim authority until he makes a determination, then state his authority didn't exist.  In which case his determination that Obama was illegal will be illegal, which, I don't know, seems like logic would dictate two negative make a positive.

Like when babies poop, that is a change you can believe in.


VERY QUIETLY OBAMA'S CITIZENSHIP CASE REACHES SUPREME COURT




AP- WASHINGTON D.C. - In a move certain to fuel the debate over Obama's qualifications for the presidency, the group "Americans for Freedom of Information" has Released copies of President Obama's college transcripts from Occidental College . Released today, the transcript indicates that Obama, under the name Barry Soetoro, received financial aid as a foreign student from Indonesia as an undergraduate at the school. The transcript was released by Occidental College in compliance with a court order in a suit brought by the group in the Superior Court of California. 

The transcript shows that Obama (Soetoro) applied for financial aid and was awarded a fellowship for foreign students from the Fulbright Foundation Scholarship program. To qualify, for the scholarship, a student must claim foreign citizenship. This document would seem to provide the smoking gun that many of Obama's detractors have been seeking. Along with the evidence that he was first born in Kenya and there is no record of him ever applying for US citizenship, this is looking pretty grim. The news has created a firestorm at the White House as the release casts increasing doubt about Obama's legitimacy and qualification to serve as president. 
When reached for comment in London , where he has been in meetings with British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, Obama smiled but refused comment on the issue. Britain 's Daily Mail has also carried the story in a front-page article titled, "Obama Eligibility Questioned," leading some to speculate that the story may overshadow economic issues on Obama's first official visit to the U.K. In a related matter, under growing pressure from several groups, Justice Antonin Scalia announced that the Supreme Court agreed on Tuesday to hear arguments concerning Obama's legal eligibility to serve as President in a case brought by Leo Donofrio of New Jersey . This lawsuit claims Obama's dual citizenship disqualified him from serving as president.  
Donofrio's case is just one of 18 suits brought by citizens demanding proof of Obama's citizenship or qualification to serve as president. Gary Kreep of the United States Justice Foundation has released the results of their investigation of Obama's campaign spending. This study estimates that Obama has spent upwards of $950,000 in campaign funds in the past year with eleven law firms in 12 states for legal resources to block disclosure of any of his personal records. Mr. Kreep indicated that the investigation is still ongoing but that the final report will be provided to the U.S. attorney general, Eric Holder. Mr. Holder has refused to comment on the matter.
A note the press wouldn't catch, being from the Colombia School of Public Relations, it was possible for Obama to have dual citizenship when applying to college. So, he may be only lying a little bit in the application, a con to get money. Not exactly untrue, just fraudulent. However, this does not mean he was a natural American for election purposes.

What it means is that as young man of dual citizenship, when the time came, he was required to reject his Indonesian citizenship formally to remain a "natural" citizen of the U.S.  Apparently, as many seem overly adamant about this, there is no record that he so swore. Hence, bye bye. At least, it would mean that if the Constitution still applied.

=========================

While I am at it, permit me to catch up on old news. I did a blog on the alleged global warming filled with all sorts of graphs, etc., but I think I am in the realm of beating the dead dog. So, a summary:

1. Japan's official position is man does not cause global warming;

2.  Australia thinks it is all a crock (that is how they talk.)

3.  UN folks admit we are in a global cooling phase and have been for a decade or more. They predict thirty more years of cooling.

4.  Obama says we have to work really hard to stop the above warming that doesn't exist and tax people like crazy.  Since man-made warming doesn't exist, cap and trade will certainly work. Al Gore will make a few hundred million more.

Scientists were explaining something about a lack of sun spots and the oceans cooling.  Sound familiar?  Now, watch how all these "scientists" morph and slide away leaving the idiot politicians behind, happy with their taxing authority and a hot audience. The governments don't care about the science, this is all about taxing and controlling.
