10:01p - Epic Smackdown!
So, for those of you who were blissfully unaware of who Orly Taitz is, allow me to shatter the last vestiges of your faith in humanity via wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orly_Taitz Orly Taitz is an Orange County, California-based dentist and lawyer who is a leading figure in the "birther" movement which challenges whether Barack Obama is a natural-born citizen eligible to serve as President of the United States; in addition, she promotes a number of other conspiracy theories both related and unrelated to Obama. She runs a non-profit organization called the "Defend Our Freedoms Foundation".
Choice quotes of hers about Obama include " "I believe he is the most dangerous thing one can imagine, in that he represents radical communism and radical Islam: He was born and raised in radical Islam, all of his associations are with radical Islam, and he was groomed in the environment of the dirty Chicago mafia. Can there be anything scarier than that?"
Yup. Her most recent project has been representing a soldier who did not want to be sent to Iraq b/c she felt that since Obama wasn't a real president, he couldn't tell her what to do. And thus it begun
So most of this is in Judge Land's beautiful opinion (which I strongly reccomend you read) but it's 43 pages of glorious smackdown, so I will summarize from it and cite. http://ia311028.us.archive.org/1/items/gov.uscourts.gamd.77605/gov.uscourts.gamd.77605.28.0.pdf
