BREAKING: Birthers Question Legitimacy of New GOP Chair

Shortly after Reince Priebus was elected to replace Michael Steele as Chairman of the Republican National Committee, Birther Movement founder Orly Taitz told reporters that she has already been in touch with RNC headquarters and has submitted a formal request for a copy of Mr. Priebus’ birth certificate.

“I remember hearing him speak once, and I distinctly remember him telling the audience that he was born and raised in Kenosha,” Ms. Taitz, or ‘Orka’ as she was known to friends growing up with her in the area of the former Soviet Union which is now Moldova told reporters. “I forget exactly where in Africa Kenosha is, but based on his name and complexion, I’m guessing it was once a part of South Africa — which would make sense as it’s only appropriate that the party — if they did intend to put a foreigner in charge — would elect someone with firsthand knowledge of how successful a repressive white-minority government can be.”

While it is not against Party rules for the chairman to be born outside of the United States, Ms. Taitz added that, “it just sets a bad example and gives the appearance that the party is getting soft on immigration. I mean, first the Schvartzer and now this?”

Ms. Taitz also announced that she and her supporters are planning to picket Mr. Priebus’ first official event as Party Chairman, a $500,000 a plate fundraising luncheon with executives from Wall Street and the banking community that is expected to allow the GOP to repay the $20 million debt it accrued during Mr. Steele’s tenure, “and still have the least a few million left over.”

2. Taitz resurfaces, in desperate attempt to be relevant.

3. If they had any consistency they would
And they never worried about McCain's birth in Panama.

7. "based on his name and complexion"
That's at the center of this statement and at the core of everything Orly and the birthers think and do.
Can't get any clearer than that about their thought process and motivations.

15. Only one little problem with calling this "satire"
Orly would do that.

17. you know, the really sad part about this is that it would not surprise me at all for her to actually
do something like that.

it's pretty sad when one has to check the link to see whether it is from the Onion or something similar, as there are days it becomes harder and harder to tell.

20. If Taitz were to really challenge him it would be difficult for Preibus to
produce a birth certificate that she would accept. I just got my Wisconsin BC from my parents last week and it is a photostatic copy that is the size of an index card. That is what they provided to parents back in the 1950's.
