DISCLAIMER: The author is a registered Independent and does not have an opinion as to the truth and/or veracity of the allegations of the lawsuit referenced in this blog or the information contained at the web sites cited.

Attorneys for Barack Hussein Obama filed a motion in Federal Court in Pennsylvania on Monday, asking the court to dismiss the Amended Complaint filed by Philip J. Berg. The lawsuit filed by Berg challenges Obama's eligibility to take the office of the President of the United States. The motion to dismiss filed by Obama and the Democratic National Committee, echoes Obama's prior motion to dismiss the action for lack of subject matter jurisdiction and for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted.

In his lawsuit, the Plaintiff, Philip J. Berg, a Philadelphia attorney, alleged that Defendant Barack Hussein Obama is not eligible for the Office of the President because Obama lost his U.S. citizenship when his mother married an Indonesian citizen and naturalized in Indonesia. Plaintiff further alleged that Obama followed her naturalization and failed to take an oath of allegiance when he turned 18 years old, to regain his U.S. citizenship status. The lawsuit raises not only the Indonesian citizenship issue but also questions whether Obama was a citizen of Kenya.

Mr. Berg has stated that if Barack Hussein Obama will produce a certified "vault" birth certificate, a copy of his Certificate of Citiizenship and a copy of his Oath of Allegiance to the United States, that he (Mr. Berg) will dismiss his lawsuit voluntarily. To date, Obama has refused to comply with Mr. Berg's request.

The parties (and the country) await a decision by Judge R. Barclay Surrick on the motions to dismiss and a motion to block discovery, filed by Obama.

UPDATE: Brian Smith has been asked to appear on Roy King's radio show this afternoon (Saturday) at 4:30 Eastern, to discuss the Berg lawsuit and these blogs.

Philip J. Berg has just formally responded that, due to Rule 36 of Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (their failure to respond within 30 days), Obama and the DNC have technically admitted all allegations made against them.

Seems to me that if the DNC and Obama wish to make this go away, simply producing the long form birth certificate is much easier and cheaper than filing a motion. Common sense. Must be something to this and if so it must be revealed pronto.

Is Obama's reason for his two days off to visit his grandmother and or take care of some birth and citizenship documents in multiple countries? I recall someone indicating privacy requirements would need his presence to gain access to them.

Sure hope someone is tracking his activities so the requested documents don’t disappear or get modified between now and showing them.

I don’t care what party a presidential candidate is affiliated with, he/she must show undisputed proof of natural citizenship.

1. The Hawaii department of health has already authenticated his certificate of live birth.
2. A birth announcement was made in the Honolulu newspaper on August 13, 1961.
3. His citizenship was validated by the board of elections when he filed to run.

Why is it more credible to send the "certificate" to a web site than it is to produce it when it is ordered in a Federal court? Producing it would make all of this go away. Common sense would dictate there is something to this. Last I checked Factcheck.org wasn't part of the legal system

damn that return button is messed up. Anyway, the reason he is not producing the birth certificate is that Mr. Berg has no legal standing to demand it and is obviously filing for some sort of political advantage (for instance, have a partisan 'expert' claim it is false). So Obama has nothing to gain by supllying - it's that simple boys.

The Annenberg Foundation was created by Walter Annenberg. He was many things including Ambassador to Great Britain under Nixon and close friends with Nancy and Ronald Reagan. He introduced Reagan to Thatcher (after his ambassadorship). Annenberg's wife and current president and chair of the Annenberg Foundation has publicly endorsed McCain for the presidency. Suggesting the Annenberg Foundation is a source of conspiracy because of FactCheck.org or because Ayers and Obama both benefited from their relationship with this foundation is simple cherry picking. Reagan is probably spinning in his grave.

MAYBE I'VE GOTT'N THIS ALL WRONG - ME JUST BE 'N AN
OLD FARM BOY WITHOUT MUCH EDUCATION...BUT NOW, Y'ALL
CHECK THIS OUT: HIS FATHER WAS A KENYAN, A MUSLIM, AND A BLACK- WE HAVE
SEEN ALL THOSE PICTURES OF HIS NICE AFRICAN FAMILY.

HIS MOTHER IS KANSAN, ATHEIST, AND WHITE. SO -
WHERE ARE ALL THOSE PICTURES OF HIS NICE WHITE MOTHER
AND HIS NICE WHITE GRANDPARENTS - THE ONES WHO RAISED
HIM ALL THOSE EARLY YEARS?

HIS FATHER DESERTED HIS MOTHER AND HIM WHEN HE WAS
VERY YOUNG AND MOVED BACK TO LIVE WITH HIS FAMILY IN
KENYA (THAT'S THE ONES IN THE PICTURES).

HIS WHITE MOTHER THEN MARRIED AN INDONESIAN MUSLIM
AND TOOK HIM TO THE CITY OF JAKARTA WHERE HE WAS FIRST
SCHOOLED IN A MUSLIM SCHOOL

HIS MOTHER THEN MOVED TO HAWAII AND HE WAS RAISED
BY HIS WHITE MIDDLE-MERICAN GRANDPARENTS THERE.

UMMM...NOW HERE'S THE HARD PART FOR ME (HELP ME OUT
HERE, IF YOU CAN): SOMEHOW, SUDDENLY - HE WENT TO THE B EST HIGH DOLLAR
PREP SCHOOLS IN AMERICA , AND LATER, HE GOT INTO A TOP
IVY LEAGUE COLLEGE AND LATER, INTO HARVARD LAW SCHOOL-
HOW? WHO SPONSORED HIM? WHO PAID FOR ALL THAT SCHOOLING?
(HAVE YOU LOOKED AT TUITION EXPENSES TO ATTEND
UNDERGRADUATE YALE LATELY? HOW ABOUT HARVARD LAW SCHOOL ?
SOMEBODY PAID A LOT OF BUCKS FOR THIS KID'S IVY LEAGUE
EDUCATION.......) WHO?

A SENATOR'S SALARY IS NOT THAT GREAT, BUT THIS
YOUNG MAN AND HIS YOUNG WIFE PRESENTLY LIVE IN A $1.4
MILLION DOLLAR HOUSE THAT HE ACQUIRED THROUGH A"DEAL"
WITH A WEALTHY FUND RAISER.

WHAT SORT OF "DEAL"? RIGHT OUT OF HARVARD LAW,
HE "WORKED" AS A CIVIL RIGHTS ACTIVIST IN CHICAGO

HE THEN ENTERED POLITICS AT THE STATE LEVEL AND
THEN MOVED TO THE NATIONAL LEVEL - WHERE HE SCRAMBLES
TODAY WITH VERY MINIMAL EXPERIENCE IN ANYTHING - WHILE
OTHER PEOPLE WRITE HIS SPEECHES FOR HIM.

IN ALL HIS TIME IN THE STATE AND NATIONAL
LEGISLATURES - HE'S NEVER LAUNCHED ANY IMPORTANT
LEGISLATION WHATSOEVER MOSTLY, HE'S OUT RUNNING FOR
PRESIDENT.

HE CLAIMS TO BE "PROUD OF HIS AFRICA N HERITAGE"
BUT IT SEEMS THAT HIS ONLY CONNECTION WITH AFRICA WAS
THAT HIS AFRICAN FATHER GOT A WHITE GIRL PREGNANT AND
THEN DESERTED HER.

UMMM....WHERE IS THE PRIDE IN HIS WHITE HERITAGE?
AFTER ALL - IT WAS WHITE GRANDPARENTS THAT RAISED HIM!

HE IS PRESENTLY A MEMBER (FOR OVER 20 YEARS!) OF AN
"AFROCENTRIC" CHURCH IN CHICAGO THAT HATES WHITES,
HATES JEWS, AND BLAMES AMERICA FOR ALL THE WORLD'S
FAULTS.

HE REPEATEDLY COVERED UP FOR THAT PASTOR AND THAT
CHURCH - SAYING THAT HE CAN SEPARATE THE RELIGION FROM
THE POLITICS, WHEN HE HEARS A HATE-WHITEY SERMON.

HE CLAIMED THAT HE WAS SIMPLY UNABLE TO CONFRONT
HIS PASTOR OF 20+ YEARS ABOUT THE PASTOR'S DEMONSTRATED
UN-AMERICAN BIAS, BUT HE WANTS US TO BELIEVE THAT HE CAN
CONFRONT NORTH KOREA AND IRAN, WHEN THE TIME ARISES TO
TAKE AMERICA'S SIDE.

YEAH - WITH THIS BACKGROUND AND EXPERIENCE, HE
"HOPES" THAT HE COULD BE A UNITER AND BRING US ALL
TOGETHER; BUT - WE THINK THAT THE REAL "HOPE" IS, THAT HE
REALLY HOPES, THAT NO ONE WILL PUT ALL THESE PIECES
TOGETHER, UNTIL AFTER THE ELECTION.......! and he wants
to be our commander and chief of our armed forces and he
was never in the service. Hmmm.......we can't let this
happen.

Well with two other lawsuits filed over the same issue, one in Washington State Court to the Washington Secretary of State to vet Obama's credentials or take him off the ballot, the other in Hawaii in the Hawaiian Supreme Court asking for a copy of the vault birth certificate be produced. So, assuming Berg's suit filed in Federal Court lacks standing the Washington case should settle that.
More ...

But as everyone who looks at this the real question is why is Obama not simiply producing the vault birth certificate? McCain had a simliar issue and he went to extraordinary steps to produce all of his birth records and evidence that he was a natural born citizen and the case was dismissed and that was the end of it.
This does not look good for Obama and the Democratic National Committee (a co-defendant in the Berg lawsuit that has retained Joe Sandler also counsel for CAIR). Obama and the DNC are spending a considerable amount of money trying to fight production of the document??????
It would be an interesting question if Obama is elected and then found not to be a natural born citizen. Very esoteric law, but a fundamental principal of our common law is that if an act is accomplished by fraud it is null. Obama could be out, likely Biden could not be President as his right to do so would be based on Obama. It may be that the election would go to the presidential candidate with the next highest votes.
With the level of peoples confidence in government at an all time low (anyone else still pisxsed about the two hundred million pork added to the bailout bill by the Senate?), why would Obama risk a national crisis rather than produce the birth certifcate?
This issue is not going away and deserves to be aired by the main stream media until Obama produces a certified vault copy of his birth certificate and, if it is as he has claimed, that would be the end of this. Time to step up.

the issue is legal malpractice, not citizenship.

that is, why fail to file an ANSWER by the date due in a Federal case. A motion is not an answer and there's no grant of an extension of time to file the ANSWER in this case (as far as i can tell).

there's a real risk here of being kicked off the ballot for simply failing to file a proper answer. of course, maybe i don't have the details right, but if i do, as an attorney, i can tell you... that's crazy.

Is it any wonder that legitimate claims made against Sen. Obama are dismissed as hard right raveings?

The book of Revolationssssssss(There is no "s" at the end. We are obviously dealing with real Bible scholors here.) does NOT discribe Sen. Obama in any way.
1)The word anti-christ isn't even in Revelation but I will assume that you are refering to the Beast.
2)It never says the Beast will be in his 40s
3)It never says he will be a Muslim (Islam would not be founded for hundreds of years later)
4)It never says he will persuade people to follow him by being charmming or charismatic, he will cause them to. Avery basic greek word study shows that "cause" means to compel by force.
5)It does not say that he will destroy everything, but rather that God will send plauges and judgements on the Earth.

I am not voting for Sen. Obama howerver, as a minister of Christ I have a duty to the truth especialy concernning Holy Scripture.
Sen. Obama is pro abortion in every form and case imaginable, a scocialist, and posibly a party in the largest case of fraud EVER. But the man is certainly NOT the anti-christ.

Sorry...hit enter too soon...the Berg suit is a valid one simply because the strongest argument is the fact that Obama's mother moved to Indonesia with him when he was 5. In order to MOVE to Indonesia, Stanley Ann Durham had to give UP her US citizenship, ergo so did Obama by law. He could have regained his US citizenship (if born in Hawaii) at the age of 18. Instead at the age of 20, he travels to Indonesia on an Indonesian passport? Why?

Finally, in the Berg lawsuit there have been 27 motions filed to date. The easiest thing to do is either google Berg v Obama at Justia, then scroll down to the motions...click on the left number and print and read the motions yourself or read them right on the web. At Berg's website, obamacrimes.com there are pdfs of every motion, and the responses by Obama and the DNC. Berg's PDFs have the exhibits attached, which shows his proof to the court. Once you read everything, then you can decide for yourself if there is merit to the case. I believe there is. The FEC filed a motion to dismiss based on that Berg lacks standing...or if he doesn't, the FEC should be removed from the suit because the FEC does not hold oversight on whether a candidate meets constitutional requirements to run for POTUS. So if the FEC does NOT have oversight, who in the heck does?

According to Jeff Schrieber at www.America'sRight.com, and The Philadelphia Daily News, the Court has dismissed Berg's complaint, supported by a 34-page memorandum.

The Philadelphia Daily News reports that
In a 34-page memorandum and opinion, the judge said Berg's allegations of harm were "too vague and too attenuated" to confer standing on him or any other voters.

Surrick ruled that Berg's attempts to use certain laws to gain standing to pursue his claim that Obama was not a natural-born citizen were "frivolous and not worthy of discussion."

The judge also said the harm Berg alleged did "not constitute an injury in fact" and Berg's arguments to the contrary "ventured into the unreasonable."

Jeff, at www.America'sRight.com reports that Surrick expressed dissatisfaction with the type of "evidence" Berg provided to support his allegations. From the Court's opinion: ".... To support his contention, Plaintiff cites sources as varied as the Rainbow Edition News Letter … and the television news tabloid Inside Edition. ..."

Jeff reports that Surrick also noted Berg's misinterpretation of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

=========
Jeff also notes that Berg "will issue a press release today detailing his plans to appeal to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals and then to the United States Supreme Court."

1. The birth certificate online was examined by several forensic document specialists and deemed a forgery. Online documents are pretty suspect.
2. Why all the secrecy? Why the blocking of access to school and birth records?
3. The grandmother (paternal) has admitted to being in the delivery room in Kenya when Obama was born. Even with a valid Hawaii birth, there is the issue of Indonesian citizenship and the likelihood that Obama may still not be a US citizen.
4. Somewhere along the way, someone is going to force the production of the official document. Hopefully, it will be sooner rather than later.

"HONOLULU – State officials say there's no doubt Barack Obama was born in Hawaii.

Health Department Director Dr. Chiyome Fukino said Friday she and the registrar of vital statistics, Alvin Onaka, have personally verified that the health department holds Obama's original birth certificate.

Fukino says that no state official, including Republican Gov. Linda Lingle, ever instructed that Obama's certificate be handled differently.

She says state law bars release of a certified birth certificate to anyone who does not have a tangible interest."

Wye,

Unfortunately the AP report is incorrect (what a surprise shoddy reporting from the AP). The Hawaii officials never said Obama was born in Hawaii, she merely stated they had the original copy of the long form birth certificate. It is actually against the law for them to reveal any details on the birth certificate without permission from Barak or his family. Its obvious the AP reporter made a poor and unprofessional assumption based off of Fukino's statements. The actual quote was as follows:

“Therefore, I as Director of Health for the State of Hawaii, along with the Registrar of Vital Statistics who has statutory authority to oversee and maintain these type of vital records, have personally seen and verified that the Hawaii State Department of Health has Sen. Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.

“No state official, including Governor Linda Lingle, has ever instructed that this vital record be handled in a manner different from any other vital record in the possession of the State of Hawaii.”

So the question still stands why does Obama continue to hide his birth certificate. . . funny we have to submit ours to get a drivers license, passport, get into some schools, but Obama can't do it for the biggest job of them all? Think people, there's a reason.
