RUDY!!

By this logic, given that Jablonski wasn't present, Farrar could have taken the stand and claimed the sky was green, purple unicorns live in his garage, and Obama was born on Mars, and the judge would have to take such things as fact.

The judge will certainly lend greater weight to uncontested facts but there is still a burden present. Furthermore, much of what Farrar is talking about aren't questions of fact but those of law, and the judge doesn't have to take anybody's assertions of what the law is as valid. If Farrar gets on the stand and says the law says murder is OK, the fact that no defense says "Actually it isn't" doesn't mean it is. The law is what it is.

Gosh, I love me some Rudy.Nobody does batshit crazy quite like him.

Can't wait to see his reaction when the decision is released.

To me, the amazing thing is that he ISN'T as "self-important" and "arrogant" as they think he is.

why wait? (skip to 9:40)

It also looks as if the court reporter is talking into a "gas mask."

Here ia a partial email I received,Please consider it :
Patriots,

There is an urgent need to send messages of support to Judge Malihi, the judge who heard the Georgia Obama Ballot Challenge on 1-26-2012. We need to send Judge Malihi a note of thanks for his courage and willingness to stand for the US Constitution.

Here is Judge Malihi’s web sitefor a better presentation that I have copied below. Send your appreciation to:

Call, email respectful appreciation. Some have said it’s essential for Judge Malihi to sense that “we the people” are behind him and his action. So let’s remove any doubt the Judge might have of the strong support we’re offering.

Zeke - that is the first rule of Pissantism.

I especially like the part where she misspells her website as "o-r-l-y-t-i-t-z-e-s-q.com" at 2:01.

Kawaii Kookanaga or whatever wrote:
And if that is the case, it means Malihi is clearing the decks for either a default judgment against the president, or the implementation of a legal remedy of some sort for Obama’s self-important refusal to appear or even respond to the proceeding with counsel.

It's not really going to come down to the strict rules of evidence. This isn't some bad photocopy of some obscure document nobody has ever heard of. It is a document that has been publicly confirmed by the head of the Department of Health of Hawaii, to the point the DOH has publicly and repeatedly verified the information in it, examined by fact-checking organizations, and made public in a number of formats. It's not an example of "it's on some obscure url on some unreliable website."

Even if it hadn't been introduced, the facts it demonstrates are subject to judicial (or at least administrative notice).

Also, the authenticity of the document is only necessarily to lead to a near-conclusive presumption of the validity of the information in the document. The burden is only preponderance. Even if it weren't entitled to that presumption, that wouldn't mean it would have no weight at all, but only that weight that the fact-finder gave it.

Given that it was the only piece of evidence of substantial probative value in the case, other than perhaps the immigration documents, and nothing whatsoever was done to call its authenticity into question, there's no way to find facts contrary to the only evidence: that is, Obama was born in Hawaii in 1961 to a citizen mother and a non-citizen father.

I think this would be good enough to have some probative value in court. The other parties had the opportunity to object based on something like the best evidence rule, but it would not have been sustained and in any event they waived the issue. Administrative bodies often rely on even less probative materials, like taking a photocopy of someone's driver's license or voter registration card, or their testimony about when they moved in to their aunt's house, without even checking it with the original records.

Again, IANAL, but I can't see how the birfer lawyers stipulation one way or another on the validity of the documents makes them more or less credible. They fly on their own wings, IMO, because these lawyers are anything but experts on the authenticity of these e-copies of copies of putative originals.

"Who is Barack Obama? Contrary to the rumors you have heard, I was not born in a manger. I was actually born on Krypton and sent here by my father Jor-El to save the Planet Earth. Many of you know that I got my name, Barack, from my father. What you may not know is Barack is actually Swahili for 'That One.' And I got my middle name from somebody who obviously didn't think I'd ever run for president. If I had to name my greatest strength, I guess it would be my humility. Greatest weakness, it's possible that I'm a little too awesome."

Is there anything more that we on TFB can do to destroy the rumors that Orly tries so fervently to spread? What is the best strategy for fighting back against propaganda?

Stern has pointed out Orly's misapprehension that raising a reasonable doubt is her best strategy as an attorney, and esseff44 has pointed out that the court is not her audience. She is a propagandist and that alone. All the evidence I have seen suggests that Orly intends only to raise enough "reasonable doubt" that some people will decide not to vote for President Obama, for whatever part of her pack of lies and stupidity they choose to believe...What is the best strategy for fighting back against propaganda?
