If President-elect Obama appoints Hillarious Clinton as his administration's Secretary of State, what happens if, on Friday the 5th of December, SCOTUS vacates Obama's election because he fails to prove his qualifications as a viable candidate for the office of POTUS.
I don't think anyone in his right mind really believes that the "system," or anyone in it, will force Obama to reveal his trump card until after he's broken the "natural born" clause of the US Constitution. Once the precedent has been established the courts will simply re-interpret (pdf) that clause of their "living" document.
So it seems simple to me: one way to get this birth certificate issue before a federal judge is for someone to directly disobey a clear order of the next Commander-In-Chief.
Someone, somewhere, will be in a position to perform an act of insubordination on the basis that BHO is an illegitimate pretender to the highest office in the USA.
The only problem with that is that Joe Biden will inherit the office.
... by the courts, and for the special interest." [GLBT]The United States of America is falling apart right before our eyes! An enemy within is killing her!Former California governor, now State Attorney General, Jerry Brown somehow caught the ear of the State Supremes (something everyday Joes can't do) and got them to agree to examine the legality of Proposition 8.
If the dysfunctional behavior of Californians this past week were a family someone would be behind bars and they'd all be headed for court.
This kind of piffle does not instill confidence in the public's mind.
The Gay community is losing support in key places. If fear and intimidation is all that is needed to get your way, where will it stop?
This just in (23 July 11:25 AM) ... an update on Congressional efforts to stop State from issuing "no-go" lexicon.

Muslims have made it a modern art form: using western courts to obfuscate their evil and hide duplicitous activities. Jerry Gordon in New English Review says an international institution is complicate (by their absence) in a cover-up of the problem ...The mainstream media has copped out on an important story that, post 9/11, is a threat to the counterterrorism effort.A systemic bias in the media is the cause of this blinders mentality; though the evidence is everywhere in the blogosphere, MSM is in major denial. "There is no evidence of a general, worldwide Muslim effort to use western courts against the best interests of their own people." Says the media spin.The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and other Muslim Brotherhood (MB) front groups, cited by the U.S. Justice Department as unindicted co-conspirators in the Holy Land Foundation case to be retried in the Dallas Federal District Court in September, have thwarted federal, state and local counterterrorism training by objecting to it as ‘racist’ or as ‘religious hate’ and in many cases forcing discontinuation of such training.
[...]
Worse yet, we are allowing the MB front groups to get away with this under the guise of ‘hate speech, religious profiling, civil rights’ and obsessive political correctness by federal, state and local political leaders and the department heads of these front line first responder agencies.
[...]So what is the solution to this MB intimidation bulldozer directed at our first responder community in America? It is a federal law to cut off the threats of MB fronts from intimidating counterterrorism agents with threats of civil complaints and law suits.A measure is being proposed "to stop the harassment of first responders" and their agencies "in carrying out their lawful responsibilities in protecting fellow citizens against acts of terrorism." All Americans are encouraged to get behind it! Write or call your senators and legislators.We would hope that a version of "Protecting American First Responders Fighting Terrorism Act of 2008" might be afforded a serious hearing by both Senate and House Homeland Security Committees and be enacted.
The ministry of Westboro Baptist is an embarrassment to the entire Body of Christ ...The father of a fallen Marine was awarded nearly $11 million Wednesday in damages by a jury that found leaders of a fundamentalist church had invaded the family's privacy and inflicted emotional distress when they picketed the Marine's funeral.I hope they collect every penny.
The jury first awarded $2.9 million in compensatory damages. It returned later in the afternoon with its decision to award $6 million in punitive damages for invasion of privacy and $2 million for causing emotional distress to the Marine's father, Albert Snyder of York, Pa.
Snyder sued the Kansas-based Westboro Baptist Church for unspecified monetary damages after members staged a demonstration at the March 2006 funeral of his son, Lance Cpl. Matthew Snyder, who was killed in Iraq.
Think maybe Marty Robbins' popular song might be rewritten to keep up with our culture?If Arizona Joe will run for president, I'll nominate South Carolina Jon for vice-president.South Carolina's prisons director on Tuesday defended a policy of punishing inmates who perform sex acts by dressing them in pink, despite a lawsuit claiming the rule subjects prisoners to ridicule. [FOX News.Com]
"We don't believe the United States Constitution protects an inmate's right to publicly gratify himself," Ozmint said. "We're hopeful federal courts won't look into our Constitution and create such a right."The US Constitution doesn't protect a non-inmate's "right to publicly gratify himself"; why should it protect yours.
But, dear Jon, don't count on the courts not creating such a thing ... they have a long history of doing just that (EOC, KELO, abortion rights, gay marriage, forced education, Children's Gestapo Protective Services).Inmate Sherone Nealous, 31, filed the lawsuit in June 2006, claiming the Corrections Department "is placing inmates' lives and physical well-being in danger."No, Sherone, you've put yourself and others in danger ... first by your commission of crimes against society and second through your perversions."The color pink in an all-male environment no doubt causes derision and verbal and physical attacks on a person's manhood," wrote Nealous, who has been serving time on various assault and battery charges since 1999. "Placing inmates in pink jumpsuits leaves them open to threats of sexual assault, intimidation, extortion and ridicule." [Charleston Net News]Duh ... how about masturbating in public causing the same? Or how about your "verbal and physical" attacks on the female SCDC staff? You ding-a-ling!The policy allows prison officials to discipline inmates found performing sex acts in front of corrections officers by making them trade their customary tan jumpsuit in for a pink one, which must then be worn for three months.I love these guys with degrees telling everyone else how to do their jobs; I wonder what it would be like if the tables were reversed.In some South Carolina prisons, inmates who break the rule are housed together in areas where women are not allowed to work, officials said. "They are trying to humiliate or offend females," Gelinas said.
In the prison agency's most recent argument, the department cited a Florida case where 12 female nurses were awarded nearly $1 million in January in their sexual harassment case against that state's Department of Corrections. A jury held the agency liable for harassment because administrators failed to prevent inmates from exposing themselves and from making "sexually demeaning" comments to women, according to the court filing.
Where are the feminists in all of this?A human rights advocate said officials should focus on taking away privileges, not colors.
"Of course you should protect staff from sexual harassment, but there are other ways to do it besides this degradation and putting people at risk," Jamie Fellner, U.S. director of Human Rights Watch said. "Prisons are funny places, and you start pointing fingers at people for specific things and you can set off all kinds of stuff."

The SOUR report tells me Western Civilization is doomed and the Muhammadans are right!The Japanese love technology so much that now even sex toys are on the cutting edge, according to a report ...
The “gPod”, a phallic-shaped vibrator, is designed to respond automatically to sounds picked up by an accompanying handset, which can plug into anything from a telephone to a music player to a television.
... .“You can use it in many ways, for example hooking it up to your mobile phone,” said Ichiro Kameda, the machine's inventor. “The dildo vibrates through the same waves as a voice. So one of the ideas is that you can use it here in Tokyo when your boyfriend in New York is talking to you on the phone.”So if you're discussing business with your secretary and her eyes role and she seems to be drifting off ... you should fire her!
Then again, sometimes we see SWEET news that gives us hope ...A Painesville, Ohio, judge known for dishing out quirky sentences is making no bones about what he sees as a fowl crime.The irony of the name of the town is priceless! Go girl, go!
Municipal Judge Michael Cicconetti has ordered three men accused of soliciting prostitutes to wear chicken suits in lieu of a 30-day prison sentence, the Houston Chronicle reported.
... .
The alleged johns will also have to carry a sign saying, “No Chicken Ranch in Painesville,” a jab at the “World Famous Chicken Ranch” whorehouse in Nevada, the Houston Chronicle reported.
"We're trying to send a strong message that we won't tolerate this activity in the city," said Painesville probation supervisor David Washlock told the Chronicle.
Today's appellate ruling reveals the failure of the Body of Christ. Follow my logic ...WaPo succinctly describes the decision ...
- Public indecency is a secular issue.
- A citizen's freedom of speech, as we know it, is a political issue.
- Both indecency and free speech fluctuate at the whim of the people.
- Christians have freedom of speech and behavior [1 Corinthians 10:23] but moderate their speech [Ephesians 4:29] and actions [Romans 8:13] in obedience to God [Romans 12:1-2].
- As Bob Carlise says in his powerful gospel song We Are the People, "We are the people, and the way we make a change is only by the way we live our lives; we are the people of the Light!"
- If the public degenerates to the point of embarrassment, it's not the fault of sinners ... YOU CAN'T MAKE PIGS ACT LIKE SHEEP ...
- It's the fault of the Bride of Christ; we are chartered with the responsibility to impact the general public "by the way we live our lives" [Matthew 5:13-14].
- It's also prophetic of the approach of the last days [Romans 1:27; 2 Peter 3:3; Jude 1:18].
- The finger of blame points directly at an apostate Church.
The reason for this decision is the people's moral demise; in God's administration of things [Romans 13:1-5] it falls to His people to keep a nation and her people in line by being salt and light.A federal appeals court tossed out an indecency ruling against Rupert Murdoch's Fox television network yesterday and broadly questioned whether the Federal Communications Commission has the right to police the airwaves for offensive language.
In a 2 to 1 decision, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit in New York ruled that the FCC went too far in issuing a 2006 decision against Fox Broadcasting for separate incidents in 2002 and 2003 after singer Cher and celebrity Nicole Richie each uttered an expletive on live television.
