Willy, with all due respect, you need to keep an open mind. If you read both Snopes articles, there was never any denial that the nine supreme court dockets existed. In fact, Snopes says that each of them did exist, but then goes on to explain how not one of the 9 cases had anything to do with President Obama's eligibility to serve as President. Sure, Snopes answered "False", but it was not to the question of whether the cases existed on the Supreme Court's docket, but rather, whether those cases lend any credence to the theory that Justice Kagan was appointed because President Obama owed her "big time" for serving as his counsel on the cases. And, by the way, that is what the Solicitor General does--represent the government in cases filed before the Supreme Court. The SG has no choice in the matter.
I rarely refer to Snopes and certainly do not accept whatever is said on Snopes at face value. However, I think you are accusing them here of intentionally lying when, if you read what they said, they did not.
