Oh, this will help Democrat party unity. A prominent Philadelphia attorney and Hillary Clinton supporter filed suit because he doesn't think Sen. Obama is not a natural born U.S. citizen.
In 2000 - questions existed about Mr. Cheney's Texas residence. And there is a movement a-foot about Mr. McCain's birth in Panama. (last seen on Metafilter here.) I wonder when a Ron Paul support will file a suit over McCain - just to complete this round of the silly season?

Even Little Green Footballs is saying to give this non-issue a rest, FFS. The shortsighted pettiness of some people astounds.
It's "Democratic Party", btw.

This 9/11 truth idiot and his pathetic last ditch attempt to get Hillary the official nomination lawsuit for the health of the Democrats, has no bearing on the actual nomination does it? Please tell me they don't have to stop proceedings and sort this out before Obama can get on with winning the election.

That's the non-stop party of commie, baby-eatin', homosexuallin', kleptomaniackin' preverts. It's a pretty rockin' party. Bring your own lampshades and apostrophes.

I would like to congratulate the various extremely vocal "up with Hillary, down with Obama" Democrats for helping their party go from "sure thing winners of this here election" to "oh no hotly contested race and McCain might win."
My favorite part is the belief that if Hillary were to get the nomination at this point due to a lawsuit or other tricky maneuvre that the portion of the Democratic party that supports Obama will magically not be royally pissed off and decide to support her.
Them grapes aren't sour - them grapes are raisins already.

Joey Michaels: I think the thought is to have Obama lose then have Clinton run in '12. Still an idiotic idea mind you.

Even if it's not true, I continue to believe that the anti-Obama Hillary supporters are just a few excessively vocal people on the Internet getting way too much attention from pretty much everyone. They're McCain supporters. There's no vote to court and no point to argue.

I wasn't born in the US either, so that probably means I'm perfect to run for president.

The Obama doubts I get (otherwise known as spam) are from shallow-thinkers. Lacking even a primitive level of political sophistication, they tend to believe all those Obama-bashing forwards that make the rounds over and over. Sad that so many fall for the loudest voices and fail to recognize dirty politics.
