Progress in SCOTUS' Consideration of Obama Citizenship Question

I'm passing on this update on the Supreme Court's processing of one of the now-multiple lawsuits that call into question the legitimacy of Obama's candidacy for President, based on Article 2, Section 1, Clause 5 of the Constitution.

From Red County blogger Rus Thompson:

On December 5, 2008, only ten days before the electoral college votes, the nine Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court will meet in private to review Obama's citizenship status.

Leo Donofrio's case, "Leo C. Donofrio, v. Nina Mitchell Wells, Secretary of State of the State of New Jersey, United States Supreme Court Docket No. 08A407," regarding Obama's citizenship has reached a new level. The case has been "distributed for conference."

This docketing today by the court should send ripples of fear through the Obama camp. Obama has been proceeding at lightening speed to put together a cabinet and take possession of the White House with the hope that he won't have to answer the question of whether or not he was "at birth" a "natural born citizen."

Thompson points out that the MSM has completely ignored the Obama citizenship lawsuits, calling them the work of "sore losers or conspiracy theories". However, "If four of the nine Justices vote to hear the case in full review, oral argument may be ordered."

Thompson's report is consistent with the SCOTUS online docket.
