News Word: Dismissed
Posted by Andisheh Nouraee on Sun, Nov 2, 2008 at 9:00 PM
Bryan Terry, Sr. filed suit in Fulton County Superior Court, demanding Georgia Secretary of State Karen Handel investigate claims that Sen. Barack Obama was neither born in the U.S., nor is he U.S. citizen, therefore he is constitutionally ineligible to serve as President.
“Failing to officially and publically [sic] vet the status of the citizenship claims of Mr. Obama will cast a pall of doubt on the election process and taint the election results themselves.”
-Atlanta resident Bryan T. Terry, Sr., in a memorandum to Fulton County Superior Court.
“. . . there is no basis for this court to issue an injunction or a mandamus or other relief against the Secretary of State. Plaintiffs’ claims are, there, HEREBY DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.”
-An October 24, 2008 order by Fulton County Superior Court Judge Jerry Baxter in response to Terry’s claim.
“Way to waste your freaking time and my email storage space.”
-Conservative Georgia blogger Erick Erickson, in an October 27 post on Peach Pundit mocking Terry and others who are trying to get him to publicly support their claims.
