Judge Carter to Orly: It’s Been Interesting, Buh-Bye.
Carter dismisses Barnett v. Obama in its entirety.
Not as wild a ride as Judge Land’s earlier dismissal in Rhodes v. Obama, but Judge Carter schools Orly in his own calm, measured way—even suggesting that he found Gary Kreep to be the more competent counsel for the Plaintiffs. Zing!
UPDATE: I hope Orly is wearing her flame-retardant lashes when she reads Carter’s closing rebuke:
Plaintiffs have encouraged the Court to ignore these mandates of the Constitution; to disregard the limits on its power put in place by the Constitution; and to effectively overthrow a sitting president who was popularly elected by “We the People”–over sixty-nine million of the people. Plaintiffs have attacked the judiciary, including every prior court that has dismissed their claim, as unpatriotic and even treasonous for refusing to grant their requests and for adhering to the terms of the Constitution which set forth its jurisdiction. Respecting the constitutional role and jurisdiction of this Court is not unpatriotic. Quite the contrary, this Court considers commitment to that constitutional role to be the ultimate reflection of patriotism. Therefore, for the reasons stated above, Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss is GRANTED.
UPDATE 2: The backlash begins in the Texas Broadcasting readers’ forum, erstwhile domain of rival birther Ed Hale:
JUDGE DAVID CARTER, YOU HAVE JUST GIVEN YOUR LIFE TRAITOR!
