Birther Madness Explored and Explained !!

[wayfaringstranger]

Those of you who may have heard of ORLY TAITZ - a California dentist/lawyer/realtor who has dedicated herself to "proving" Obama is not a native-born American, and is thus ineligible to be President - might wish to explore a website pretty much dedicated to the stupidity of her "crusade" ...and the inherent weirdness of "some" (I'm being polite) of her followers.

Patrick Mc Kinnion does a bang-up job at :

I urge you to visit his site !B-)

1. I think I'm gonna call Sen. Alexander again and tell him I want a public option. ;-) NT

[SidneyCarton]

2. Birther Madness is Easy to Explain.

These are people who are upset because they believe that someone with President Obama's complexion should only be allowed into the White House if he's serving the drinks. The fact that he runs the place (and does a decent job of it no less) drives them batty.

3. Kinda like the

unrec does on DU.

[JayMusgrove]

18. I'm with you on that one. Especially after that swimming pool incident

in Philly last week.

There are more racists out there than we want to know about, and half of them are birthers, I'm willing to bet.

To prove it, lets' see how many birthers are black or Hispanic. I'll bet ZERO!

4. a dentist, a lawyer AND a realtor. Wow. He sounds top notch.

Can't even pick a profession.

[damonm]

5. "She" certainly does...

[Iris]

6. ha! ha! I didn't catch that!

I even went to the link looking for the name!

At any rate, now I can be even more sexist - sounds like a trophy wife with too much time on her hands.

[brooklynite]

7. Sounds like a joke...did she walk into a bar?

[PatGund]

15. It gets better

Her law degree is from an unaccredited on-line law school. California is the only state that allows graduates of such schools to take the Bar exam.

8. That was hilarious!

the only thing I don't understand, if Obama is not a citizen, how can he be committing treason against the U.S.?

[madmom]

9. Since when do you lose your citizenship when you marry a non citizen? In one

of their "arguments" they said Michelle is no longer a citizen because she married a non citizen. I know they're bat-shit crazy, just wondering if there was ANY rationale no matter how small?

[and-justice-for-all]

20. So my friend who married a Brit is no longer a US citizen??

I better call her and let her know. :sarcasm:

[CitizenLeft]

10. those people are really, truly, terrifyingly INSANE.

Not kidding.

Did you read the long rambling post from the moron who "proves" that "the Usurper" isn't an American citizen because *gasp* his little league administrators accepted - ACCEPTED! - certificates of live birth from all the players, thereby proving that Obama doesn't have a birth certificate? (?????????)

Wow. I pray that the Secret Service has files on these imbeciles and is watching them closely. I'm ashamed to even breathe the same air as these nutjobs.

[Ken Burch]

11. What the heck kind of a name is "Orly Taitz"?

It sounds like a comic sidekick on a low-budget sci-fi show.

[Robb]

16. ...

[PatGund]

17. *laugh*

[JayMusgrove]

19. It's certainly NOT an "American" name!!!! LOL

[peaches2003]

12. Orly Taitz is a nut with a capital N

She is Russian, a ditzy blonde, and a dentist (degree from ?), with a mail order correspondence school law degree. Read up on her thru google. She knows less law than I do I think, files cases with SCOTUS that they ignore and is a freak. She's involved with Ed Hale at Plains Radio, another ignorant wingnut with an internet radio show full of nuts. All she does is request money from her loyal followers to file her lawsuits against Obama.

[vaberella]

13. Why is "Oh Really Tits" flooding this site all over again. Ugh. Please, stop. n/t

[Adelante]

21. People who are trying to depose our President interest me

I want to know what they are up to. You can use Hide Thread if it doesn't interest you.

[TrogL]

27. Did you want to go back to Lolcats or AYBABTU?

[PatGund]

14. Why thank you!!

While I guestpost at Yes To Democracy, my main blog is at

http://badfiction.typepad.com/

I've been writing about the birthers since August of last year. In a word, yuck.

Thanks again!

22. Great site! danke! They are fucking insane...

They are going to get their shit handed back to them, I bet the moon on that too!!

[ellisonz]

23. "Hawaii should lose statehood for good."

Restore the Kingdom of Hawai'i!

"Perhaps we could send all those who donated money to the usurper there and blockade those islands for good."

Free Vacations!

[Cha]

24. No freeperassholes on the Islands?

How sweet would that be?B-)

[ellisonz]

25. Auwai Linda Lingle!

Abercrombie/Hooser 2010!

:thumbsup:

[Cha]

26. Hopefully, I'll be there

just in time to vote for them. Thanks for the heads up, ellisonz. So Neil wants to be Gov?:)

[ellisonz]

28. Yep. Although he's maybe facing a challenge from the Mayor of Honolulu Mufi Hanneman...

2010 is going to be interesting in the Islands.

Moving here?
