The Democratic Party has jumped into a Barack Obama eligibility case before Judge Roy Moore's Alabama Supreme Court, filing an uninvited brief that even quotes late-night comedian Jimmy Kimmel in an effort to see the case dismissed.
As WND reported, 2012 Constitution Party presidential nominee Virgil Goode and Alabama Republican Party leader Hugh McInnish have filed a case seeking to force Secretary of State Beth Chapman to verify that all candidates on the state's 2012 ballot were eligible to serve.
The case, dismissed at a lower level, is now being appealed to the Alabama Supreme Court, where Roy Moore was elected chief justice last November. The case becomes all the more intriguing because Moore is on record questioning Obama's constitutional eligibility to serve as president.
Speculation abounds online that Alabama Democrats have jumped into the case out of concern Moore may not be so quick as other judges to dismiss challenges to Obama's eligibility.
In a brief of amicus curiae filed last week, the Alabama Democratic Party insists the court is required to dismiss the case.
"Stated simply," the brief reads, "there is absolutely nothing any Alabama court can do to change the reality of President Obama's election to a second term in office. … No Alabama court has the authority to delve into the legality, conduct or results of that election."
The brief is filled with condemning language, calling the McInnish-Goode case a "baseless attack," Obama the "object of [their] scorn" and their intent "a jaundiced and jaded political agenda."
