Obama Nominated Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court as a Payback-Fiction!

Obama Nominated Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court as a Payback-Fiction!

Summary of the eRumor:
Various emails circulating the Internet alleging that President Obama nominated Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court as a pay back for denying requests for cases questioning the Presidents citizenship when she was a clerk for the court.

The Truth:
There were cases filed in the Supreme Court by "The Real Truth About Obama, Inc." that were denied by then Solicitor General Elena Kagan but these cases did not question President Obama's eligibility as a natural born citizen.

This rumor stemmed from an article released by World Net Daily (WND) on August 4, 2010 that alleged that there were several cases questioning the President's citizenship and that they were denied by Kagan. WND posted this statement on their site correcting the error:

"An earlier version of this story incorrectly described a series of cases for which Elena Kagan represented the government as eligibility cases. Those cases, in fact, were a series of unrelated disputes pending before the Supreme Court and the references have been removed from this report."

A real example of the eRumor as it has appeared on the Internet:

Once again the Senate sold us out.

Well, someone figured out why Obama nominated Elana Kagan for the Supreme Court.... Pull up the Supreme Courts website, go to the docket and search for Obama. She was the Solicitor General for all the suits against him filed with the Supreme Court to show proof of natural born citizenship. He owed her big time. All of the requests were denied of course. They were never heard. It just keeps getting deeper and deeper, doesn't it? The American people mean nothing any longer.. It's all about payback time for those that compromised themselves to elect someone that really has no true right to even be there. We should be getting so sick of all of this nonsense.

Here are some websites of the Supreme Court Docket:

You can look up some of these hearings and guess what?? Elana Kagan is the attorney representing Obama!!! Check out these examples:

Other versions:

Kagan was representing Obama in all the petitions to prove his citizenship. Now she may help rule on them.

Folks, this is really ugly.

Chicago Politics, and the beat goes on and on and on...
