The Weirdness Continues

The Weirdness Continues

I've mentioned before that I just couldn't taken seriously the claim that Obama wasn't born in Hawaii--except for how oddly Obama's lawyers responded to these lawsuits. Apparently, Alan Keyes's suit continues--and with a new twist:
As many of you know, I am party to one of the lawsuits seeking evidence that would help to establish, one way or the other, whether Obama in fact meets the U.S. Constitution's eligibility requirements for the office of President of the United States. To understand my view of the critical issues involved see the WND articles The End of the Constitutional Republic, and Obama, Oaths and the End of Constitutional Government.) Now Obama's lawyers have filed a motion to quash our effort to obtain the relevant documents (cf. Bob Unruh's WND article Sanctions sought in eligibility case.) I am told that it includes a demand that monetary penalties be assessed against me and the other plaintiffs in the suit.
Turn over the original long form birth certificate, and all these suits would go away. What's on that original long form birth certificate that is so worrisome that Obama won't hand it over?

I've seen the claim made, "If he turns over the birth certificate, then they'll want to see his college records." But there's a legitimate question about his birth certificate as it relates to Obama's legal authority to be president--unlike his college records. Why is this an issue? Because Hawaii will reissue birth certificates for people that were not born there, but were adopted there, and because Obama did hold Kenyan citizenship (through his father) until 1982.

Like I have said repeatedly: Obama could have made all these suits go away by offering to the court the original, long form birth certificate from when he was born in Hawaii. Obama and the DNC have spent at least tens of thousands of dollars--and probably far more than that--arguing about standing. This doesn't make any sense, unless there's something on that Hawaiian birth certificate that is so embarrassing that it makes sense to spend money keeping these suits alive.
