Snark O' the Day: The Supremes to Consider the Obama Birth Certificate "Controversy

Bark Bark Woof Woof woofs about this glorious waste of taxpayer dollars in the interests of settling once and for all a "worrying" "issue":

The United States Supreme Court is going to decide whether or not to hear a case claiming that Barack Obama is not a U.S. citizen and therefore ineligible to serve as President of the United States...

They think he was born in Kenya. No, wait; Indonesia. His Hawaii birth certificate is a phony. Well, no, it's not, but it's not the real one; it's his sister's and his name is forged on it. Okay, he was born in Hawaii, but his mom returned to Indonesia and renounced her citizenship, which made young Barack a non-citizen. Or he has dual citizenship with Kenya. Or is it Freedonia?

Actually, these bat-shit crazies are as much fun to watch as a Sarah Palin Cliche Festival.

And by "batshit crazies" I'm sure he means "concerned citizens."

In the meantime, the aforesaid concerned citizens are holding a prayerful vigil outside the temple of the SCOTUS.   The DCist reports:

At 9 a.m., a black minister who would only give his name as Brother Pittman led a prayer circle and a recitation of the pledge of allegiance. Pittman, who lives in Silver Spring, came as a "representative of the Rev. James David Manning," a Harlem preacher who became an Internet legend for a February sermon in which he called Obama a "long-legged mack daddy" who was "born trash." "I've been shunned by members of my own family," Pittman said. "I tell them, do the research! Go online and look up the facts! This is all about openness and why Barack Obama won't answer questions about who he is."

There's nothing new at all about small, strange protests outside the court, whether or not the justices are at work. While the Obama protestors were praying, a group of 16 young Christians walked up to the other side of the Court steps, strumming a guitar and lighting candles before holding a pro-life prayer vigil. Police and tourists looked on and a very small group of journalists grabbed the Obama protestors for interviews. "This story is writing itself," said a Mother Jones reporter as he filmed the prayer circle.

The Supreme Court will announce whether it will actually consider the Obama lawsuit as early as today and as late as Monday. If (as expected) the Court tosses the suit, Bredow will start challenging Obama's legitimacy based on "foreign money that went into his campaign." Other protestors said they'd start contacting members of the Electoral College. Steve Brindle, who drove down from Pennsylvania, said he'd called his senators yesterday.

Click for the photograph!  And enjoy the "controversy" that even the Malkin won't touch.

Pundits across the blogosphere, including Obama foes Michelle Malkin and Ed Morrissey, have dismissed the challenge. Malkin likened its backers to the conspiracy theorists who questioned whether Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R) was really the mother of her youngest son. (The Hill's Blog Briefing Room)
