Meet Orly Taitz, Queen Bee of People Obsessed With Barack Obama's Birth Certificate [humor/serious]

I didn't know if there was a leader to all this insanity. Holy shit, what a batshit insane woman, i really feel sorry for her kids. However, the fact that she and her rival birther (philip berg) believe each other to be Obama plants is absolutely hilarious :laugh:

Ostella declined to comment for this story. For Berg, the lawsuit?for slander, privacy violations and harassment?offered a chance for him to finally say what he?d been thinking about Taitz: She?s a menace and possibly an Obama plant. ?When you really look at what she has accomplished over the past couple of months, I think it?s nothing,? Berg says. ?She?s hurt the cause. I suggest she goes back to practicing dentistry.? Berg says the headlines she generates, about ambushing Supreme Court justices and allegations of government-perpetrated hacking, only serve to make the eligibility movement look nuts. ?And we?re not nuts,? Berg says.

Taitz maintains that she was only spreading information that was already public about Liberi, and she has speculated that Berg might be the one working for Obama.

I think republicans are in a bind. On one hand, obviously they can't endorse these people, but on the other hand, they'll get slaughtered if they publicly repudiate them as well. Just look at some of the backlash against conservative pundits who think birthers are too crazy for even them.

Also: O'Rly? :laugh:

I recognize its legitimacy, just thought it would fit well in the existing thread.

Its a generally stupid argument, however it could be put down in 5 minutes if Obama would release his long form birth certificate.

I hope he never releases it

A number of conservative commentators have strongly criticized the birth certificate theorists and their effect on the wider conservative movement. Columnist Michelle Malkin has written that "birth certificate hunters have lurched into rabid Truther territory" and that "they accuse anyone who disagrees with them of being part and parcel of the grand plan to install Emperor Obama and usurp the rule of law."[64] At the same time, Malkin says that there "may be a seed of a legitimate constitutional issue to explore here" regarding the broader issue of how the citizenship requirement is enforced for presidential candidates.[64] Michael Medved, a prominent conservative talk show host, has attacked birth certificate theorists as "crazy, nutburger, demagogue, money-hungry, exploitative, irresponsible, filthy conservative imposters" who are "the worst enemy of the conservative movement" and "make us look sick, troubled and not suitable for civilized company."[65]

In accordance with state law, Hawaii does not issue copies of the long-form birth certificate. If Mr. Obama did not receive a copy from his parents, or if he lost the copy he had, he would have no way to comply with this request.

Thus, we arrive at the perfect tinfoil tale: all the President has to do to disprove the Birther lies is release a document he doesn't have, and cannot obtain.

 

[trenchfoot]

So, here we have Obama back when he filed his nomination papers and on into the time when he was recognized by the Bush admin. as being a very serious threat as a contender for the presidency. I'm certain that Cheney had Obama investigated every which way he possibly could to remove Obama as a Dem threat to their grip on the White House.

Now, along with that, there's the usual microscopically intense security clearance procedures that each candidate has to go through before being cleared to run for office.

And with all of that being general knowledge, I find it hilarious that these whacko's still manage to cling to these hopelessly desperate notions so as to get rid of that alien negro muslim baby murdering terrorist that's haunting their every waking moment and threatening their way of life.

They all should realize that Obama is really Elvis incognito.

do you have a freakin clue what a lo0ng form birth certificate is???

Long forms, also known as certified photocopies, book copies, and photostat copies, are exact photocopies of the original birth record that was prepared by the hospital or attending physician at the time of the child's birth [6]. The long form usually includes parents' information (address of residence, race, birth place, date of birth, etc.), additional information on the child's birthplace, and information on the doctors that assisted in the birth of the child. The long form also usually includes the signature of the doctor involved and at least one of the parents [7].

Short forms, known sometimes as computer certifications, are not universally available, but are cheaper than photocopies and much more easily accessible. Limited information is taken from the original birth record (the long form) and stored in a database that can be accessed quickly when birth certificates are needed in a short amount of time. Whereas the long form is a copy of the actual birth certificate, a short form is a document that certifies the existence of such certificate, and is given a title such as "Certification of Birth," "Certificate of Birth Registration," or "Certificate of Live Birth." The short form typically includes the child's name, date of birth, sex, and place of birth, although some also include the names of the child's parents. When the certification does include the names of the parents, it can be used in lieu of a long form birth certificate in almost all circumstances [6]. Nearly all states in the U.S. issue short forms certifications, on both state and local levels .

Meet Phokus, King Troll of P&N Posters Obsessed With Birthers, The GOP, and Racism.

I don't recall you really being too interested in the truthers when they were going FAR beyond what these idiots are.

Oh, and I think Obama is right in doing what Bush did - ignore these tin foil morons.

I wonder if these people truly believe what they are saying, or if they are like Ann Coulter and are just trying to rile up disaffected losers in order to sell books.

I don't think people are really making money off of this (Ms. Orly surely isn't, she's losing money and screwing her family over)

This is the reason why she's doing it:

Cognitive dissonance is an uncomfortable feeling caused by holding two contradictory ideas simultaneously. The "ideas" or "cognitions" in question may include attitudes and beliefs, and also the awareness of one's behavior. The theory of cognitive dissonance proposes that people have a motivational drive to reduce dissonance by changing their attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors, or by justifying or rationalizing their attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors.[1] Cognitive dissonance theory is one of the most influential and extensively studied theories in social psychology.

They're just out for their 10 minutes of fame and attention. Many idiots would love to blame all this on all the conservatives, just like other idiots would try to tell you that all liberals are communists. Just another day in America.

did anyone do that to george w bush? how about nixon? did anyone do that for ANY president before obama? no. then, there shouldn't be any question as to his birth... he was born in the states, plain and simple. the end. there's proof of it. why should he have to degrade himself by trying to prove it to a bunch of fucktards/republicans?

Yah, I mean all the leftie crazies did was accuse GWB (along with the CIA, FBA, NYPD, NYFD, etc.) of mass murdering his/their own citizens. I can see how this is so much worse.
