Well, if O RLY ever gets disbarred, at least she has her careers as a dentist and real estate agent to fall back on.
Not totally sure how many, but this is at least the 2nd time she's represented someone in the military trying to avoid deployment because they claim Obama can't be Commander in Chief. The last one was dropped when the Army Reserve recalled the order to deploy the plaintiff.
Other Obama-related conspiracy theories Taitz has repeated include: A number of homosexuals from Obama's former church have died mysteriously. Obama has dozens of social security numbers, and his passport is inaccurate. Taitz claims that a person who was cooperating with the FBI in connection with Obama's passport died mysteriously, "shot in the head". A Kenyan birth certificate with the name "Barack Obama" is authentic. Obama's first act as president was to donate money to Hamas, which she claims will be used to build Qassam rockets. Obama or someone connected to him has made threats to Taitz's life, including vandalizing her car.[10] Obama is having FEMA build internment camps for "Anti-Obama dissidents" [14] Taitz also has advanced or supported a number of other conspiracy theories not directly related to Obama, including: that Goldman Sachs runs the United States Treasury,[19] that Baxter International has developed a bird flu vaccine that kills people,[19] that Representative Alcee Hastings and the House of Representatives are planning to build at least six labor camps,[19] that Hugo Chavez owns the software that runs American voting machines,[10] that FactCheck is untrustworthy because of its links to the Annenberg Foundation,[10] and that Fox News is partly owned by Saudi Arabia.[19] Taitz has also advocated numerous Internet-related conspiracy theories, including complaints about alleged PayPal attacks and the previous deletion of her Wikipedia entry and allegations that Google improperly flagged her web page as an attack site and suppressed search results for her name.[10]
The leader of the birther movement is.... Frenchy??? <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/0TOxhzAm7fY&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/0TOxhzAm7fY&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
It seems like the left is more obsessed with the birther movement than the right is. The equivalent would be conservatives constantly talking about truthers. Who cares? There are nut cases on both sides
you mean like the one with his own show on a cable news network that ended in the resignation of someone in the obama administration?
The person that started the whole birther movement was a Hillary supporter named Phillip Berg, who was also a vocal truther and sued President Bush for being the mastermind of 9/11. My question to any of my fellow conservatives that might be leaning towards being a birther is this. Was Berg a nutjob when he was a truther? Because if he was a nutjob then, he's still a nutjob now. You never stop being a nutjob. Do you really want to be following someone that crazy? I think if you got most birthers one on one you'd find they don't really believe the in the whole birther movement deep down. It's just their last pie-in-the-sky hope to keep them from facing reality much in the same way the never ending Florida recounts (and I'm talking about the ones that continued on for years after the election) were for people that hated the idea of a Bush Presidency.
Please point out any democratic congressman or senator that endorses or gives credence to the truther movement TIA
Yes, but the nut cases on the left have everyone rolling their eyes. There is actually a 24 hour "news" network that seems like it is dedicated to spreading the messages the nuts on the right deliver.
