Insufficient public interest?
I'm interested. Aren't you?And don't you think the judge might just be "curious"?...
Joseph Farah reports at WorldNetDaily.com:
"Another lawsuit attempting to obtain a copy of Barack Obama's Hawaiian birth certificate was thrown out Friday by a judge who said there was 'insufficient evidence to indicate that the public interest supports' the document's release.
Judge Bert Ayabe upheld arguments from Republican Gov. Linda Lingle's office, which, inexplicably, has fought tooth and nail to protect the birth certificate from public scrutiny even though it remains the key to establishing whether the man elected to be the next president is actually eligible under the Constitution.
Ayabe ruled that Andy Martin, the man who filed the suit, did not have standing under state law because he did 'not have a direct and tangible interest in the vital statistic records being sought, namely the birth certificate of President Obama.'
Yes, you read that right."
