Liberal Judge Comes Through Again!

You knew something like this would happen. But are you surprised?

Former Deputy Attorney General for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Philip Berg, had filed a lawsuit challenging the eligibility of Senator Barack Obama to hold the office of the presidency. Berg claims to have proof that Obama is not a US-born citizen, which would disqualify Obama and nullify the Democratic ticket, presumably handing the election over to Senator John McCain. The Hon. R. Barclay Surrick, a Philadelphia Federal Judge appointed by Bill Clinton, has ruled in favor of Obama's interests by dismissing the case. Judge Surrick applied Article III of the Constitution by ruling that Berg had no standing -- that is to say, he would not be an injured party -- should Obama be elected illegally.

If "we the people" have no standing to support the Constitution, who does? It is open to interpretation whether Berg will successfully demonstrate that he would be an injured party should Obama win on November 4. Berg is planning to file an appeal with the Third Circuit Court of Appeals (although on his website, Berg has indicated that he is immediately filing an appeal with the Supreme Court).

It is noteworthy that Philip Berg is a lifetime Democrat.

If all such cases are ultimately dismissed for lack of standing, it will be up to a Democratic Congress to decide the matter of eligibility of a Democratic president, a fact which does not bode well for McCain or, more importantly, our judicial system.

Constitution be damned, we may have an illegal president after all.
