Over the Line — Citizens Have No Authority Over Government Judge Says

 

There Is A Document…

 

Dear Friend and Reader,

What set me off on this calling out the perpetrator of this High Handed attack on the Freedoms of citizens of the USA?

It’s an attack on one of the most precious, most dearly held concepts that has been put into a document ever.

The Constitution of The United States of America

If I remember correctly… It starts off with…

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Oh yeah… it does. You can verify this at US Government Archives

Let’s Move To Article III of the US Constitution

Article III.

Section. 1.

The judicial Power of the United States shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish. The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour, and shall, at stated Times, receive for their Services a Compensation, which shall not be diminished during their Continuance in Office.

Section. 2.

The judicial Power shall extend to all Cases, in Law and Equity, arising under this Constitution, the Laws of the United States, and Treaties made, or which shall be made, under their Authority;–to all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls;–to all Cases of admiralty and maritime Jurisdiction;–to Controversies to which the United States shall be a Party;–to Controversies between two or more States;– between a State and Citizens of another State;–between Citizens of different States;–between Citizens of the same State claiming Lands under Grants of different States, and between a State, or the Citizens thereof, and foreign States, Citizens or Subjects.

In all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, and those in which a State shall be Party, the supreme Court shall have original Jurisdiction. In all the other Cases before mentioned, the supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction, both as to Law and Fact, with such Exceptions, and under such Regulations as the Congress shall make.

Now I am not by any stretch of the imagination a Constitutional Lawyer, or expert on the Constitution of the United States of America.

I am just a lowly citizen. I was always taught that those in elected office (and they refer to themselves as) are Public Servants. I did not think the USA was a Banana Republic until recently.

As I understand what I just copied from the Constitution of the United States of America, is even lowly citizens like me can bring a lawsuit against a “Public Servant” if I do it in the right venue (right place… right court) the one that has jurisdiction.

So What Am I Talking About?

As you may know… recently a gentleman named Phillip Berg brought suit against Barak Obama claiming he is not a Natural Born Citizen as required in the United States Constitution to be President of the United States of America.

Now I’m not going to say whether or not I agree with Mr. Berg’s premise.

That is for the Court to decide… as outlined above in Article III of the Constitution of the United States of America.

Mr. Obama has made declarations stating he is Natural born, but will not release copies of his actual birth certificate, which is why Mr. Berg brought the law suit as far as I can see.

According to my reading of the Constitution of the United States of America, Mr. Berg has ever right to bring such a law suit as long as he does it in the proper venue.

A Philadelphia Judge Apparently Thinks the Rights of a Citizen Do Not Count

Here’s the story… As Associated Press reported it…

Judge tosses lawsuit challenging Obama citizenship
Oct 25, 3:37 PM (ET)

PHILADELPHIA (AP) – A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit challenging Barack Obama’s qualifications to be president.

U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick on Friday night rejected the suit by attorney Philip J. Berg, who alleged that Obama was not a U.S. citizen and therefore ineligible for the presidency. Berg claimed that Obama is either a citizen of his father’s native Kenya or became a citizen of Indonesia after he moved there as a boy.

Obama was born in Hawaii to an American mother and a Kenyan father. His parents divorced and his mother married an Indonesian man.

Internet-fueled conspiracy theories question whether Obama is a “natural-born citizen” as required by the Constitution for a presidential candidate and whether he lost his citizenship while living abroad.

Surrick ruled that Berg lacked standing to bring the case, saying any harm from an allegedly ineligible candidate was “too vague and its effects too attenuated to confer standing on any and all voters.”

After expressing my Outrage at U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick’s inane reason for dismissing the lawsuit, We will also have a dissection of the propaganda in the AP report.

Stick around… this will get interesting.

First let’s get some definitions… shall we…

I’m a simple person. I don’t understand $1,000,000 words that such a well educated man like U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick uses. Words like “attenuated” so I had to look it up.

Webster’s defines attenuated as…

1. to make thin or slender
2. to make thin in consistency : rarefy
3. to lessen the amount, force, magnitude, or value of : weaken
4. to reduce the severity, virulence, or vitality of an attenuated virus
5. to become thin, fine, or less

Now that we have these definitions… Let’s look use these simple everyday 10 ¢ words… in place of the $1,000,000 word at the last part of U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick’s reason for dismissing the lawsuit.

“any harm from an allegedly ineligible candidate was ‘too vague and its effects too (attenuated) — to make thin or slender — to confer standing on any and all voters.’ ”

So U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick says Any Harm From an Ineligible Candidate is too vague, and too thin an argument to have any “standing on any and all voters”????

Yes We Read That Right!

How about we use another definition…

“any harm from an allegedly ineligible candidate was ‘too vague and its effects too (attenuated) — to make thin in consistency : rarefy — to confer standing on any and all voters.’ ”

So U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick says Any Harm From an Ineligible Candidateto make thin in consistency : rarefy an argument to have any “standing on any and all voters”????

How about we use another definition…

“any harm from an allegedly ineligible candidate was ‘too vague and its effects too (attenuated) — to lessen the amount, force, magnitude, or value of : weaken — to confer standing on any and all voters.’ ”

So U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick says Any Harm From an Ineligible Candidate is so weak as to not even have a point to argue or have any “standing on any and all voters”????

Now if such a great Constitutional Scholar… or even a Judge who is obviously well read in the Constitution of the United States of America is going to dismiss the suit. It should be because it was brought in the wrong venue. It should be brought in the Supreme Court of the United States of America.

Not Because The Argument That A Presidential Candidate is Not Legally Qualified To Run For the Office And If The In-Eligible Candidate Is Elected… Contrary To What The Constitution of the United States Says…

To paraphrase that leading Constitutional genius (sarcasm intended) U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick… “Having Someone Not Legally Eligible To Be President Does Not Harm Any Citizen”

What’s next U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick… Will you allow known and proven illegal aliens and proven enemies of the USA to run for President of the United States of America because Any Harm resulting from having an ineligible person serving as President of the United States of America is “too vague”??? Yeah, I guess that’s s why the Founding Fathers of the United States of America Specifically Detailed Who and who was not eligible to become President of the United States of America. Hey I bet if Hugo Chavez of Venezuela wanted to run for President of the United States of America U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick would find no problem with that either! Look at his reasoning.

And do not get this wrong… I am not saying Mr. Obama is doing anything wrong. I Am and Do have a problem with the high handedness of U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick. He should immediately be impeached, and returned to being a lowly citizen not important enough to have standing to bring a lawsuit against wanna be elected officials.

To paraphrase further “You are ONLY a private citizen… ONLY one vote… so you have no standing to vote for your leader. And You as a private citizen have no right to challenge those ‘Public Servants’ either holding or running for office. They are insulated from scum like you. I’m a high authority and I deem it so… Now go climb back to the hole from whence you came and let those brilliant minds… much more brilliant than you decide what’s best for you. Obey… Do Not Question!”

Talk About a Fascist Dictatorship

Thank you U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick for insulating those high up’s from us lowly citizens.

Propaganda Tactics in The AP Story

Let’s analyze the propaganda tactics in the AP Story Covering this Over-reaching Ruling

Second Paragraph…

(Color Maroon: Testimonial combined with Color Pink: Card Stacking “Obama was born in Hawaii to an American mother and a Kenyan father.(card stacking ends) His parents divorced and his mother married an Indonesian man.

Color Pink: Card Stacking — They are alleging something in question to be a fact.

The Third Paragraph… starts with Color Red: Name Calling

Internet-fueled conspiracy theories question whether Obama is a “natural-born citizen” as required by the Constitution for a presidential candidate and whether he lost his citizenship while living abroad.

Considering the Source AP this propaganda is really mild.

In the Word‘s of Porky Pig “Ehh… BahDa BahDa BahDat’s All Folks!
