The Supreme Court made no announcement today whether or not it will hear Donofrio v. Wells, the lawsuit challenging the election based on Barack Obama's release - or alleged lack thereof - of his official birth certificate and his citizenship status. (The court did decide to hear two cases, one of which is the case of Ali Saleh Kahlah al-Marri, an Al Qaeda combatant seized on American soil.) Of course, there's no guarantee the Court will ever actually issue any statement on the Obama case since it was simply petitioned to the court and, along with hundreds of other cases, could be dismissed without any comment at all. But as Frank James, over at The Swamp, says, "the lack of an announcement doesn't mean the court definitely won't hear Donofrio." So either we will or we won't. Hmm. more ›

Does "Change" Extend to the Presidential Seal?: The Obama campaign unveiled a new Barack-centric take on the seal, with an eagle bearing the "O" logo, as well as proclaiming "vero possumus" which The Swamp translates as "truly we're able." As long as everyone else is suggesting preferable Latin to have on the new logo, may we suggest the Royko take on the Chicago motto: "Ubi Est Mea," aka "Where's mine?" For some real hilarity, RedState is trying to convince the waternoggins among us that the "interpretation" of the seal is illegal and that Obama should be arrested. Note to RedState: If he was using the actual seal, you'd have quite a case. But it's not. Sorry. more ›
