Federal judges as well as Supreme Court justices seem to be terrified of dealing with the issue of Obama's eligibility to hold the office of President of the United States.

While I hold the federal judges in contempt for their lack of principles and lack of courage in avoiding the issue, by dismissing all such cases brought to them, I at least can understand why they behave in such a craven manner. They are subject to impeachment by Congressional tyrants; the Supreme Court; however, has no such vulnerability.

It appears the Supreme Court has become as politically polarized as Congress and is letting ideology take precedence over law. This seems to be substantiated by Justice Scalia; when questioned by Orly Taitz of the Defend Our Freedoms Foundation, who has brought an eligibity suit on behalf of nine state reps and 120 military officers he "hinted that another conservative justice has been voting against hearing the dispute. "

"The Supreme Court today is considered to have mainly a 4-4 conservative-liberal split, with one swing vote on most issues. On the conservative side generally are Chief Justice John Roberts, Justice Samuel Alito, Scalia and Justice Clarence Thomas. Justice Anthony Kennedy often is the swing vote. The liberal side frequently includes Justices Stephen Breyer, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, David Souter and John Paul Stevens."

According to this report from World Net Daily, it appears that in addition to at least half the justices being either to cowardly to hear the case or politically motivated to suppress it, there appears to be a court clerk who is actively obstructing justice by deception and alternation of records:

"The motion for reconsideration alleges a court clerk "of his own volition and on his own authority refused to file of record, docket, and forward to the Chief Justice and Associate Justices petitioners' supplemental brief presented on January 15, 2009."

"However, the clerk "refused to file this brief in the docket, stating that he will send it back with [an] explanation," the motion states. "Nothing was sent back and no explanation [was] provided."

"But now Taitz is raising concerns about manipulation of her case at the Supreme Court. She asserts docketing information about her case "was erased from the docket of the Supreme Court on January 21st, one day after the inauguration and two days before [the case was to be heard]."

"She noted the same clerk told another attorney it was a computer malfunction, but it affected none of the other cases on the docket. "

The question of Obama's eligibility is a matter of possible violation of the Constitution. Why are liberals so afraid of resolving this issue?
