... Obama citizenship issue with Orly Taitz and former Barack Obama pollster Cornell Belcher. On the video, John King lies, misleads, and smears millions of Americans, and seems to think that the truth and getting his facts straight are crazy.
1. King holds up a barely legible piece of paper and calls it Obama's "certificate of live birth":
- a. The infamous picture on Obama's site - presumably...
... frequent requester who's probably Orly Taitz. If they don't want her to make so many requests maybe they should take steps to answer her questions.
See the Obama citizenship page for our extensive coverage and our take on this issue. Note particularly that unlike some others I'm not claiming that Obama wasn't born in Hawaii; he probably was. My (correct) claim is simply that he hasn't...
... what he appears to hold.
3. Of Orly Taitz, they say:
As one judge wrote in dismissing one of Taitz's lawsuits: "Unlike Alice in Wonderland, simply saying something is so does not make it so."
Once again, the SPLC shows a great willingness to push the official line and a complete unwillingness to do anything remotely balanced. If they were interested in the latter, they would point out that the...
... Times brings word (link) that Orly Taitz has been disinvited from a tea parties event in Pleasanton on Thursday. And, that was done after politicians who were to appear at the event complained. Taitz is a piece of work, so it's perfectly understandable why Carly Fiorina and Chuck DeVore wouldn't want to share a stage with her (even if they say they had nothing to do with her being booted from...
The Anti Defamation League has a new report entitled "Rage Grows in America: Anti‑Government Conspiracies", which contains at least one major lie. And, it's a lie that you probably won't hear anyone else discuss, namely the one in the section about the "Birther" movement (adl.org/special_reports/rage-grows-in-America/birther-movement.asp):
Despite the fact that government officials in Hawaii and...
Yet another Orly Taitz "Birther" lawsuit has failed; Dave Weigel crows about it here. Leaving aside all the many other factors of this story, judge David Carter of the Central District of California in his ruling (link) made a false assumption that shows either bias or inability to understand the fine points of this issue. He says (bolding added):
More specifically, Plaintiffs allege that the...
... three-screen, mostly smear piece on Orly Taitz of the "Birthers" movement. Leaving aside Taitz' various claims, Mundy has a problem with the truth. (Note that she's also the author of a presumably sympathetic biography of Michelle Obama; she whines about the lack of cooperation from the Obama camp at slate.com/id/2202261).
Mundy quotes Taitz as saying of Obama's records "Nobody has seen proper...
... sanctions against her lawyer, Orly Taitz, a national figure in the “birther” movement - states that Taitz has two weeks from Friday to explain why he shouldn’t impose a $10,000 penalty against the California lawyer.
The phone number on the FAX apparently from Rhodes had a time of 13:58 and the phone number on the FAX belonged to a Georgia OfficeMax. However, that store apparently claims such a...
... threatened sanctions against attorney Orly Taitz if she files any future "frivolous" actions with his court.
Leaving aside all of the many other issues, Land appears to have clearly shown pro-Obama bias, or at least given him the benefit of the doubt that he didn't give to Taitz. While Obama supporters, the mainstream media, and some in the GOP will certainly disagree, if a judge is going to...
... it discusses the wacky ways of Orly Taitz, the person some call "Queen of the Birthers". For an important note about her, see [2].
While the Esquire article isn't as bad as it could be in the mocking sense, Richardson might consider that being a real reporter is a higher role than simply being a transcriptionist. In addition to the advice I offered to Kathryn McGarr of the Politico, he could...
... hack. The discussion features Orly Taitz and Alan Keyes on one side, and John Avlon and Errol Louis on the other. Rather than trying to get the facts of the matter, Pilgrim persistently engages in mockery, as do Avlon and Louis.
Pilgrim first leads off with a summary of the issue; here are the problems with what she says:
* She refers to Obama's "birth certificate", saying it shows he was born...
