Donofrio alleges Obama birth records amended!

Flash!

Leo Donofrio has made a stunning claim on his blog in a new article: Pending Litigation: Hawaii Confirms That Obama’s Vital Records Have Been Amended.

One has to translate that headline from “birther speak” to normal usage. “Pending Litigation” means “we haven’t filed a lawsuit” and “Confirms” means “we say so, but we won’t tell you why or how”.

Hawaiian law requires that certificates that have been amended be distinctly marked “altered”, and Obama’s Certification of Live Birth clearly is not marked “altered”. This fact justifies a high degree of skepticism on Donofrio’s claim. Of course the word “Amended” in birther speak might mean something totally different from the normal usage.

Donofrio says:

I will issue a full statement and press release on behalf of TerriK via this blog in the days ahead.  This statement will include a complete history of correspondence between TerriK and Hawaii state officials in the Office of Information Practices (OIP) and the Department of Health (DoH). (more…)

Cook v. Simtech orders not sealed

Taitz/Cook

Stefan Cook’s attorney Orly Taitz has apparently gone berzerk over the results of her case in Florida, Cook v. Simtech. She’s screaming NAZI at the judge and demanding his removal from the bench. Why, because she says he “sealed” his orders. Orly is also feeling the heat because her bad advice cost Cook has lost his $120,000 job. (If you want to keep your security clearance, you don’t run around in public challenging the legitimacy of the Commander in Chief.)

After the case was dismissed, Orly made several motions to reconsider the case and to dismiss the judge.

Of course, it makes no sense for orders to be sealed in a case like this, and indeed it’s not true. A quick visit to the court’s web site (subscription required) reveals the orders as follows:

Full docket text for document 10:
ENDORSED ORDER denying [8] Motion for Recusal as frivolous and wholly without merit. Signed by Judge Richard A. Lazzara on 8/6/2009. (DMB)

Full docket text for document 11:
ENDORSED ORDER denying as frivolous and wholly without merit [9] Plaintiff’s Motion to Alter Judgment and [9]Motion for Rehearing re: [6] Order on Motion for Reconsideration of [3] Order on Motion for Temporary Restraining Order. Signed by Judge Richard A. Lazzara on 8/6/2009. (DMB)

Government will move to dismiss Kerchner case

Hollister v. Soetoro

Kerchner v Obama

“judges and adverse parties need not try to fish a gold coin from a bucket of mud”

In documents filed today the US Government notified the US District Court of New Jersey that it intended to move to dismiss the lawsuit brought by Mario Apuzzo on behalf of Charles Kerchner.

Obama Conspiracy Theories has been following this lawsuit closely, publishing 2 feature articles:

The round of delays is now over and the government has responded with notice of a forthcoming  motion for dismissal.

Read what the government has to say.

I want to add a personal note here. When I went through Kercher’s 2nd Amended Complaint, replying point by point to the substantive claims it made, I wrote, “There are over 300 of these freaking points!” expressing the royal pain it was to schlog through the misinformation and twisted rhetoric. Imagine my delight to learn that there are federal rules against such things. (more…)
