Orly Taitz, Go HOME;
Take Allen West with You

I don't care what country she is from, or for that matter what planet she is from, Orly Taitz should go home.  She really doesn't belong here; she's lowering the national IQ and diminishing the level of political discourse in the nation, especially encouraging southern Republicans and Tea Partiers to be stupid and delusional by promoting ongoing birther-ism.

She is a joke, a laughingstock, a farce, and a conservative mainstay for bigotry and ideological insanity.  If it weren't for her ability unintentionally to highlight so very well what is wrong with the processes that pass for thinking on the right, processes which are emotional and fanciful rather than using reason and facts, she would have no value at all.  As it is, she manages to be entertaining, in so far as it is amusing to laugh at her.  She has incredible consistency in being spectacularly, publicly, batshit crazy.

She should take Congressman West with her; he disgraced himself and this country with his role in torture that got him stripped of his military command.   This vicious, unlawful ass is NOT someone who belongs in any legal government.  He is an embarrassment to the citizens of this country.

Her latest adventure in extremism and conservative insanity, from the HuffPo:

Orly Taitz Looks To Allen West For Help With Birther Crusade


Orly Taitz Allen West
California attorney Orly Taitz, matriarch of the birther movement, is hoping to bring aboard a congressional ally to her cause to prove the frequently rejected theory that President Barack Obama was not born in the United States and therefore not eligible to serve as president.
Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) attracted the attention of Taitz after telling a crowd over the weekend that Obama and Democrats should take their ideas and "get the hell out of the United States of America."
"We need to let President Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, and my dear friend the chairman of the Democrat National Committee, we need to let them know that Florida ain't on the table," West said Saturday at a Lincoln Day Dinner in West Palm Beach. "Take your message of equality of achievement, take your message of economic dependency, take your message of enslaving the entrepreneurial will and spirit of the American people somewhere else. You can take it to Europe, you can take it to the bottom of the sea, you can take it to the North Pole, but get the hell out of the United States of America."
On Monday, Taitz, who is fresh off an unproductive attempt to force Obama from the primary ballot in Georgia, wrote a post on her blog linking to an article on West's comments and asking him to be a congressional surrogate for the birther movement.
"CONTACT ALAN WEST [sic], ASK HIM TO JOIN AS A PLAINTIFF, BRING ELIGIBILITY BEFORE CONGRESS. TALK IS CHEAP, ACTIONS MATTER," she wrote in her signature all-caps style.
While West is certainly well-known for his bombastic rhetoric, he has weighed in on the birther issue before, telling a skeptical constituent at a town hall meeting last year that he should focus on Obama's policies, not his birthplace. Later asked about his own opinions on the matter, West said he wasn't subscribing to the conspiracy theories.
"He is a citizen. He's the president. I mean, that's all I know. I am concerned about his policies," West said.

  1. It shouldn't be too long from now when we have a Mexican president. Javier can come up from Mexico and get some little American cutie knocked up, marry her, go back to Mexico and the little cutie's son can be president in about 40 years.

    1. Oh, goodness Anonymous, you are SO ill-informed!

      Are you one of the ignorant conservatives who really believes in 'anchor babies', or are you joking? Because your concern is hilarious.

      We don't have to wait for more than another couple of months for someone fathered by a Mexican to run for President, however unlikely his election.

      Mitt Romeny's father came from Mexico. We don't have to wait 40 years for a Mexican to knock up an American --- what was your condescending and sexist term for Mrs. Lenore LaFount Romney, (a serious candidate for the U.S. Senate from Michigan in 1970): American cutie?

      George W. Romney was born in 'the Mormon colonies in Mexico' in Chihuahua (yup, the same region that produced the little dog, and the excellent variety of 'queso blanco' cheese) where Mitts o' Money's grandfather had fled in order to continue to practice polygamy.....with lots of 'cuties' in Chihuahua.

      If you're so worried about having a president fathered by a Mexican, I trust you will vote for the Nut Gingrich or for Obama in 2012 instead.

      Course, your concern DOES suggest a certain bigotry, but that's what one expects from birthers, whether it's directed against blacks, hispanics, or Mormons.

      I assume that like Obama, you don't believe that Mitt's O'Money Romney can be eligible for the office of President, without his daddy being an American citizen, right? And Mitt's O'Money Romney's maternal grandfather wasn't born here either; he was a Brit.

      So gosh, in your eyes does that make Mitt an anchor baby, a non-American, what with all those foreigners on both sides of his family tree?

      Sheesh conservative paranoia is entertaining.....

  2. None of the Romney's were Mexican. Clearly, you don't understand what a natural born citizen is.
    And guess what, my grandmother and grandfather weren't born in the US, but that has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that I am a natural born citizen. Sheesh.

  3. Anonymous, you silly bigot, of COURSE George Romney was Mexican. He was born there, that made him Mexican. Here is how one can be Mexican

    Nationality by birth

    The constitution declares that Mexicans by birth (natural born Mexicans) are the following:[1]

    individuals born in Mexican territory regardless of the nationality of their parents;
    individuals born abroad if one or both of their parents was a Mexican national born in Mexican territory;
    individuals born abroad if one or both of their parents was a Mexican national by naturalization; and
    individuals born in Mexican merchant or Navy ships or Mexican merchant or Army aircrafts


    How if what you mean is that Romney is not HISPANIC, you would be correct.

    But the Romneys were, absolutely, fully MEXICAN. MITT ROMNEY IS AN ANCHOR BABY USING YOUR DEFINITION.

    Or are you only worried about Hispanic 'anchor babies', and not 'white' anchor babies, Anonymous?

    Ah it is so entertaining to watch the conservative bigots try to dance around the contradictions to their stupidity and hatreds. Ugly, ugly, nasty vile stuff, those conservative bigotries, but it's funny as hell to watch dumb asses like anonymous try to tap dance around 'em.

    In any case, clearly Obama is an American citizen, son of an American citizen, born in the state of Hawaii in the United States, and NOT an anchor baby like Mitt Full O'Money Romney, whose father was a Mexcian, LOL.

  4. George's parents were US citizens, so while George may have acquired Mexican citizenship through birth, he did not give up his right to US citizenship and when he did run for president the matter was not an issue since both parents were US citizens.
    And leave it up to you, the sciolist you are, to try to confuse matters by bringing up the difference between Hispanics and Mexicans. Total nonsense. BTW, who said anything about anchor babies, besides you?

  5. Actually George Romney would have had dual citizen by both his parents being US citizens.

    He would have been one based upon

    1)"ius sanguinis"("right of the blood"), under which citizenship results from having an American parent or parents.

    2)Section 301 of the INA [8 USC § 1401]which states "anyone born outside the US, if at least one parent is a US citizen and certain residency or physical presence requirements were fulfilled by the citizen parent or parents prior to the child's birth"

    Romney was born to American parents living in the Mormon colonies in Mexico- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_W._Romney

  6. Let me point out that in my scenario, the kid, according to your definition of Mexican nationality would be a Mexican, also.

  7. Dog- Do you think birthers would have put up a fuss over McCain. Considering he was born in Panama.

    1. Birthers would not have bothered with McCain for two reasons: he was conservative and he was white.
