Bob Robbins just forwarded this link to WorldNet Daily:
"Most Americans don't realize it yet, but this Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court will review whether Barack Obama is indeed constitutionally eligible to become the next president.
The justices will hold a conference on the question and consider the case for formal review.
The case is brought by Leo C. Donofrio against Nina Wells, the New Jersey secretary of state, and questions whether Obama is a "natural-born citizen" as required by Article 2, Section 1 of the Constitution."
"If four of the nine justices vote to hear the case in full, oral argument may be..."

Indian Commandos May Have Killed Some Chabad Hostages
Dan Friedman sent me this tragic Jerusalem Post story.
Nov. 30, 2008
Yaakov Lappin , THE JERUSALEM POST
Col. Yossi Turgeman, IDF attaché to India, said that the two Israelis announced missing by the Foreign Ministry were not among the dead, Army Radio reported on Sunday evening.
Israelis murdered in Mumbai Chabad House to be laid to rest in Israel on Monday
Therefore, Turgeman assessed that the missing Israelis were not killed in the Mumbai terror attacks.
Earlier on Sunday, the Foreign Ministry announced that the number of Israelis unaccounted for in Mumbai had dropped to two, after contact was made with two Israelis thought to be missing.
The Indian commando raid launched to save the lives of Jewish and Israeli hostages at Mumbai's Chabad House may have inadvertently ended the lives of one or more of the hostages, the head of a six-man ZAKA team in the terror-stricken Indian city told The Jerusalem Post on Sunday.
Speaking by phone from Mumbai, Haim Weingarten, the head of the Mumbai ZAKA team, said, "Based on what I saw, [although] I can't identify the type of bullets in the bodies [of the victims], I don't think the terrorists killed all the hostages, to put it gently."
All six Jewish and Israeli hostages found dead in the Chabad House were killed by either gunshot wounds or shrapnel from grenade blasts, or both, Weingarten said, adding that he didn't know who threw or fired the grenades that wounded the hostages.
Although he lacked forensic tools to determine time of death, Weingarten said his team's observations led him to believe that "some of the hostages were killed on Wednesday [when gunmen first entered the building], some on Thursday, and some on Friday morning [during the start of the commando raid]."
After a prolonged delay, an air force transport plane carrying Israel Police forensics experts and a second ZAKA team took off for Mumbai on Sunday evening. A ZAKA source told the Post the plane would probably return to Israel with the bodies of the hostages on Monday night.
ZAKA officials believe that in a final act of love, the director of the Chabad House, Rabbi Gavriel Holtzberg, wrapped the body of his wife Rivka in a tallit before succumbing to his own wounds during the final hours of the siege.

Jim Crum's Puzzling Questions
I cannot send any of my children to school without:
1) an official birth certificate
2) a full physical which includes medical history of any past and current conditions and medications prescribed by a physician.
Despite repeated and insistent requests to do so, neither have been furnished by Mr. Obama.
Or do the rules not apply to Mr. Obama?

America Lacks a Newspaper of Record
I was just on the Fox News website to forward them my recent affirmation of Pamela Geller's Fox News obituary when I noticed a headline on their site that the New York Times has called for the resignation of George W. Bush. The Times's indifference to the importance of Constitutional provisions about the transition of power is characteristic of an unimportant, fringe newsletter. In days gone past the opinion of the Times mattered to some. Today, I, like many others, do not read the Times because of its unreliablity and biased reporting. A corollary is that the newsletter's opinions are unimportant.
A large percentage of people who reside in America are not Americans. They are elite "Progressives" who, although having spent considerable sums on vacuous "education" at expensive colleges, are ignorant of basic American principles of individualism, freedom and virtue. Progressives are to the Americans what Mao Tse Tung's communists are to the French. Sadly, much as barbarians came to dominate the Roman army, Progressives have come to dominate American institutions. Americans need to think about how to reclaim their institutions from Progressive thugs.
The Times has done systematic harm to this country throughout its history. The harm it has done includes Walter Duranty's lying about Stalin's crimes in the 1930s, downplaying the holocaust, supporting Fidel Castro, supporting the overthrow of Diem (which led to American defeat in Vietnam), and consistently supporting inflationary Federal Reserve Bank policies which have led to extraction of wealth from wage earners and dollar savers (the lower middle class) in favor of a booming stock market, the wealthy, the Ochs Sulzbergers and their friends. The New York Times and its sycophants, such as William Greider, have used every lie in the book to enhance profits for money center banks and Wall Street.
The coming inflation, and there is one coming because of the banking system and the Federal Reserve Bank, will be in part the result of the New York Times's recent propaganda campaign about a "crisis" that led to a corrupt "bailout" and tripling of the money supply.
Similarly, the Times supports the inheritance tax, but does not support it for family trusts. The Ochs Sulzbergers, the owners and publishers of the Times, have dodged the inheritance tax for five generations, even as they urge it for younger, more nimble family-owned firms that might pose a threat to them and their family friends.
In short, the New York Times should be viewed as fringe or foreign newsletter. The fact that Republicans of any category continue to pay attention to it is a mistake.
