    font class="post"1b,121b,121I think you're sharp man, but no. If the article had mentioned all of the lies and B.S. that McCain has slung over the last three decades, I'd make more sense. Mind you, I don't trust Obama anymore, except to F*ck up America a little less than McCain.

I'm not doubting that his mother is sick. I just know of information that says that there has been a suit filed in Hawaii...some other Obama-hater from Chicago filed it, Martin is his name. Some are saying that Obama was summoned to appear in court. I don't know how that connects to anything related to his mother. That's why I'm just asking if y'all know anything that can refute any of the claims. You know, something like...no, Obama hasn't gone to Hawaii recently. Or no, there is no case in Hawaii. I don't see the need to shy away from any possibility. b,121b,121So again, is the following true or not?b,121b,121"The case has been docketed as number 08-1-2147-10 and assigned to Circuit Judge Bert Ayabe."

He has also been writing columns and commentary about the senator for over four (4) years. b,121Defendants LINDA LINGLE and DR. CHIYOME FUKINO are Governor and Director of the Department of Health, respectively.b,121This Complaint for Declaratory Relief and these proceedings are instituted pursuant to ?? 632-1, Hawai'i Revised Statutes.b,121Venue is proper in this Court pursuant to ?? 603-36, Hawaii Revised Statutes.b,121b,121STATEMENT OF CLAIMb,121b,1211. Plaintiff requested a certified copy of the birth certificate of Senator Obama from the Department of Health and tendered the requisite fee.b,1212. Defendants refused to provide a copy of said certificate, invoking the confidentiality statutes of the State.b,1213. The issue of the Senator's birth certificate has become a controversial topic of intense national speculation.b,1214. As an author who strives for factual accuracy and attempts to conduct thorough research Plaintiff wants a copy of the Senator's birth certificate attested to by the State and not a 'certificate' which is posted on a web site and which has been debunked as possibly having been altered.b,1215. One of the more literate and temperate analyses of the unlawfulness of the Defendants' refusal to issue certified copies of the birth certificate is contained in Exhibit 1 attached hereto.b,1216. To the extent that the Defendants' files contain or retain original supporting data for the birth certificate, Plaintiff asks that he also be supplied with that information and/or material as well.b,1217. It is axiomatic that the birth certificate of a presidential candidate is a document of crucial public concern and significance.b,1218. While Hawai'i statutes call for a balancing or weighing test where production is considered by a court, most respectfully Plaintiff submits that the balance falls entirely on the side of disclosure where the original birth certificate of a presidential candidate is concerned.b,121b,121DECLARATORY RELIEF SOUGHTb,121b,1219. Based on the relevant statutes and constitutional law, including Article One, Section 4 ('freedom of the press') and ?? 92F-15 (e) and ?? 338-18 (a) (9), Plaintiff asks that the Court direct and order defendants to turn over forthwith a copy of Senator Obama's birth certificate and related files and records, and without any delay.b,121b,121WHEREFORE, Plaintiff Andy Martin prays for relief as follows:b,121A. For a declaration by this Court that Plaintiff is an author and writer and is a person to whom the birth certificate of Senator Obama can and should properly be delivered forthwith;b,121B. For such other relief as this Court deems just and equitable.b,121Dated: Honolulu, Hawai'i, October 17, 2008b,121b,121Respectfully submitted,b,121ANDY MARTINb,121Plaintiff Pro seb,121b,121b,121ANDY MARTINb,121Post Office Box 1851b,121New York, NY 10150-1851b,121Toll-free tel.

This lawsuit does not involve complicated or disputed facts.b,1212. Time is of the essence because Plaintiff would like to write columns and articles about the Birth Certificate before November 3, 2008.b,1213. Plaintiff is physically present in Hawai'i and is available to appear before the Court in person at any hearing on or before October 22, 2008.b,1214. There is intense national interest in access to an officially certified copy of the birth certificate in question as well as any related supporting information which the defendants may have in their possession.b,1215. A proposed OSC is attached to this Emergency Motion.b,121b,121Dated: Honolulu, Hawai'i, October 17, 2008b,121b,121Respectfully submitted,b,121ANDY MARTINb,121Plaintiff Pro seb,121b,121h,121

    Okay. I thought the piece was brilliant because here we have a Shi'ia Arab American McCain supporter who thinks the mantle "Hussein" confers great dignity and a noble tradition of resistance and honor. We all know that "hussein" is also the middle name that must not be spoken. And when wingnut whackadoos emphasize the HOOSAAIIIN in between that Barack and that Obama, I have no problem calling that provincial fear mongering/ anti-Muslim bullshit. This piece was another way of saying what Powell said on MTP though, when he said the real answer to the question of "Is he a Muslim?" is, "so what if he is." Now of course Obama is not a Muslim, but the fact that his Islamic middle name would be a liability is an underlying issue in this election that may be more semiotically important than race. Maybe. My friend Nibras though is flipping that whole narrative. Here is an American who wants his candidate to be more hussein-like, in the Koranic sense. He sees only McCain as really living up to that standard and Obama, the guy with the Islamic middle name, falling short on his Muslim test. I love that kind of thing. That's the new America. Muslim McCain supporters voting against Obama cause he's not Muslim enough.

    font class="post"1b,121b,121I got all that, I just don't think it applies to McCain. The test you speak of, as I read it, was to never give up; there are plenty of other honorable traits that McCain hasn't exhibited yet.

  • Even if I were an Obama supporter I would not have trusted him from the moment he claimed to have no idea that rev wright was a crazy bastard. Obama is an opportunist, a liar, and a charlatan; he is, in short, a politician. You have to be absolutely besotted with the dude not to appreciate this.
