Democrat lawyers eat their own

Democratic trial lawyer Philip J. Berg, Equire has filed a nuisance suit against Barack Obama claiming he's ineligible to be President.

The suit centers around evidence like Obama's school records which supposedly listed him as an Indonesian citizen. The Courts should have no problem quickly throwing this out as it was filled out by Obama's parent or guardian, who had no right to renounce Obama's US citizenship for him. Also, Obama was not yet of legal age, calling into question whether he could have legally renounced his citizenship himself.

The suit mentions that Obama was listed in the records as a Muslim, calling into question the Constitutionality of the suit itself since the Constitution specifically forbids religious tests for public office.

Finally, the suit diverges off into questions of Obama's use of the last names of his stepfathers as a child and the fact that he did not disclose this on his Illinois Bar application - facts that even if true are completely irrelevant to the very narrow Constitutional qualifications for the Presidency.

Full disclosure: I'm a McCain supporter - but I still wish these people would shut the hell up.
