Birther queen bee Orly Taitz has been pursuing a lawsuit in California’s Central District, demanding proof of President Obama’s citizenship. Today the judge dismissed the suit — and had pretty scathing words for Taitz: Orly Taitz Smacked Down: Birther Lawsuit Dismissed. Here’s the document, which Scribd allows me to embed ...

The queen bee of the Birther “movement” (no, not the shrieking harpy, although the name applies pretty well in this case too) has been hit with a $20,000 fine for her idiotic frivolous lawsuits. In an order today, California attorney Orly Taitz has been sanctioned $20,000 by U.S. District ...

Unbelievable. Now the Christian far right is heavily promoting the mind-bogglingly dim Birther conspiracy theory, with an IQ-destroying infomercial produced by Live Prayer (the site has a picture of President Obama with the caption “God’s Enemy”) and Gary Kreep (yes, really!) of the United States Justice Foundation. For a mere ...

As we noted yesterday, Birther queen bee Orly Taitz’s latest idiotic lawsuit has been thrown out of court — and the judge put her on notice that she’d face sanctions if she continued filing these mindless Birther suits. Now she’s comparing herself to Nelson Mandela, and wants the judge who ...

Another Birther case has been thrown out of court, this one brought by a female Army captain trying to refuse redeployment to Iraq because she believes Barack Obama is a sekrit Moslem furriner. And her lawyer, the whacked out queen of the Nirthers, Orly Taitz, has been warned that she ...

The Nirthers at American Thinker call on me to authenticate the latest Nirth Certifikit they’ve dug up with help from Weird Nut Daily and Jerome Corsi: Obama’s ‘Long Form’ Shows Up. Charles Johnson of Little Green Footballs did some admirable work on Dan Rather’s Memogate, primarily by duplicating ...

Remember this video, showing Republican politicians who’ve signed on to the Birther madness? [Video] Guess who appears at about 30 seconds in, saying he believes “there are questions” about Barack Obama’s citizenship? Rep. Charles Boustany, who delivered the GOP response to President Obama’s health care speech. (Hat tip: Gus 802.) ...

At the Cincinnati Labor Day tea party demonstration, an unhinged Birther approached Rep. Jean Schmidt (R-Ohio) and demanded to know why Schmidt wasn’t calling for an investigation into Barack Obama’s citizenship. Schmidt’s reply: “I agree with you, but the courts don’t.” [Video] Bad craziness, being stoked by Republican leaders. ...

In a video we posted last month, Rep. Trent Franks (R-Arizona) was the only Republican politician who went on record with an unequivocal denunciation of the mindless “Birther” movement. Well, looks like Franks may now be joining the kookspiracy. The other main issue dealt with numerous speakers questioning Obama’s ...

One of the craziest bloggers on the web, Pamela Geller, who once wrote — in all seriousness — that Barack Obama was the love child of Malcolm X, has another Nirth Certifikit article published by right-wing site Newsmax: Newsmax.com - Obama Birth Certificate Issue Causing Needless Distractions. There’s no ...

That “Kenyan birth certificate” promoted by World Net Daily, Orly Taitz, Free Republic, and quite a few bloggers turns out to have been a deliberate prank on the Nirthers. They were well and truly punk’d. The first words I wrote immediately after seeing the latest incarnation of the Nirth ...

Pew Research’s latest News Interest Index survey shows that a majority of Republicans would like to see more media coverage of the Nirth Certifikit theory. Probably because it’s making Republicans look so good.

Public Policy Polling has released a new survey of Virginians (PDF), showing that Barack Obama’s approval rating is dropping — but also that Virginia Republicans are overwhelmingly in thrall to the Birther madness. A majority of Virginians who voted for McCain (36%) said they don’t believe Barack Obama was born ...

Looks like David Weigel has unearthed the probable source image for the forged Kenyan birth certificate — a “registration of birth” from Australia with striking similarities to Orly Taitz’s document.

You know the staff at MSNBC is just loving this kind of stuff. Orly Taitz versus MSNBC anchors David Shuster and Tamron Hall. The face of the Nirther movement. [Video] (Hat tip: Allahpundit.)

Uh oh. A new poll from a reputable firm with more evidence that Nirtherism is not just a fringe phenomenon in the GOP: Just 32% of Virginia Republicans Think Obama is a Citizen. Here’s an advance look at a new Public Policy Polling survey in Virginia completed over the ...

Oops. Looks like the latest “smoking gun” for the Nirthers was loaded with blanks. Free Republic founder Jim Robinson is calling it a fraud, probably because it’s an obvious fraud. Fake Obama Kenya birth certificate? Ya think? Freepers are blaming it on Marxists. You know, the ones who’ve ... taken ...

Today we get a ludicrous effort by head Nirther Orly Taitz to foist off an obviously fake “Kenyan birth certificate” with Barack Obama’s name on it: Is this really it? (re: possible Obama’s Kenyan B.C. - Attny Taitz). These people are getting desperate. World Net Daily is also salivating over ...

Yes, the poll was commissioned by Daily Kos (because they want to exploit the Nirther craziness as much as possible, and I can’t blame them), but on the other hand Research 2000 appears to be a reputable polling company. And the poll shows exactly why so many Republican politicians are ...

Even among people who accept that Barack Obama is a US citizen, a sort of “spinoff” idea keeps coming up in our discussions of the Nirther craziness: that Barack Obama “won’t release” his original birth certificate (some people refer to it as a “long form” certificate) because there’s something on ...

RNC chairman Michael Steele risks the wrath of the Nirth Certifikit horde. Chairman Steele believes that this is an unnecessary distraction and believes that the president is a U.S. citizen.
