Does planet 'X' exist?

WHAT do you really know about the existence of planet X? First of all the name "X" itself indicates it has no identification. However, how it got its name is at least known!
The year 2012 was full of rumours about the catastrophe that was coming because planet X would smash into the earth by December 2012. Well it didn't! Thus, it doesn't seem that planet X is actually up there; this assumption is also supported scientifically.
According to Dr. David Morrison, a NASA scientist, this prediction came to light through the discovery of Nibiru by the Sumerians; which is mistaken as planet X. Though it is claimed that the Sumerians made accurate astronomical predictions, they did not know about Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto.
The photos present in the internet are not certified by NASA to be planet X/Nibiru and are just mere features near the sun. Also, as per the claims of amateur telescope users, the black rectangle in Orion in Google sky is just a processing error in the image stitching programme; and not a hiding place for planet X. Apart from all this, it is not possible for planet X to cross the orbit formations and hit the earth as all orbits are parallel to each other.
Finally, Dr. Morrison clarifies that even if planet X existed, the way it is claimed to be as per the predicted size and weight, it should have been visible to the naked eye at least by spring 2009. And none of us saw it!
