COLUMBUS, Ga. — Orly Taitz, the so-called "birther" attorney who’s led charges across the country against President Barack Obama's legitimacy to hold office, continues to defy a federal court order to pay $20,000 in sanctions and to challenge the judicial system.

The California attorney/dentist/real estate agent has risen to the national stage with her arguments that Obama can't be the president because he wasn't born in America.

Two of her cases in Columbus challenging Obama's legitimacy to hold office were tossed out by U.S. District Court Judge Clay Land. Then her second client, Capt. Connie Rhodes, wrote a letter to the court in September 2009 claiming that Taitz exceeded her authority as an attorney and that she no longer wanted the California lawyer to represent her.

YOUR president doesnt have a US birth certificate, so he got to be YOUR president, illegally

Yeah. And that doesn't seem to be helping much, does it?

And as far as that crap goes about attributing Obama support
to anyone who thinks the birther crap isn't going anywhere..

It's lame. It's stupid. Folks have opinions. They won't always match yours.

Many of us learned that in kindergarten.

Just because someone thinks Taitz is an idiot that makes them an Obama supporter?

You birthers need a new defense, that one ain't working.

BHO dba POTUS could have been born in the Lincoln bedroom delivered by the White House medical staff on the Fourth of July with fireworks in air and he would still not have Natural Born Citizen status.

Where was BHO Sr. born? Kenya

I’m with you and thank you for defending our constitution and thank you to Dr. Taitz for her courage. I’m a foreign born too with family in communist countries. If I would have the chance like Dr Taitz, I would do the same thing. I love this country more than I love my birth place. May God continually give Dr. Taitz strength , wisdom and resources. And may God have mercy in USA.

The scorecard in Obama eligibility lawsuits is Obama: 71/Birthers: 0. I’m certain that as a lawyer, Obama enjoys winning lawsuit after lawsuit, particularly since we the taxpaying American people cover his legal expenses since Inauguration Day.

Here’s what a conservative federal judge appointed by Ronald Reagan said about Orly Taitz:
“This is one of several such suits filed by Ms. Taitz in her quixotic attempt to prove that President Obama is not a natural born citizen as required by Constitution. See U.S. CONST. art. II, § 1. This Court is not willing to go tilting at windmills with her. “—Chief US District Court Judge Royce C. Lamberth in dismissing the Quo Warranto claim in “Taitz v Obama”—April 14, 2010


And here’s what a US District Judge who was a US Marine Lieutenant Vietnam combat vet who won the Bronze Star at the Battle of Khe Sahn had to say to Mrs. Taitz:
“Plaintiffs have encouraged the Court to ignore mandates of the Constitution; to disregard the limits put on its power put in place by the Constitution; and to effectively overthrow a sitting president who was popularly elected by “We the people”—over sixty nine million of the people.
Plaintiffs have attacked the judiciary, including every prior court that has dismissed their claim, as unpatriotic and even treasonous for refusing to grant their requests and for adhering to the terms of the Constitution which set forth its jurisdiction. Respecting the Constitutional role and jurisdiction of this court is not unpatriotic. Quite the contrary, this Court considers commitment to that constitutional role to be the ultimate reflection of patriotism.”—US Federal District Court Judge David O. Carter in dismissing “Captain Pamela Barnett, et. al. v Barack H. Obama, et. al.”—October 29, 2009

And here’s what a former conservative Republican Georgia state Senator who was appointed to the federal judiciary by President George W. Bush had to say about Mrs. Taitz before he fined her $20,000 for bring a frivolous lawsuit:

“The Court observes that the President defeated seven opponents in a grueling campaign for his party’s nomination that lasted more than eighteen months and cost those opponents well over $300 million. Then the President faced a formidable opponent in the general election who received $84 million to conduct his general election campaign against the President. It would appear that ample opportunity existed for discovery of evidence that would support any contention that the President was not eligible for the office he sought. Furthermore, Congress is apparently satisfied that the President is qualified to serve. Congress has not instituted impeachment proceedings, and in fact, the House of Representatives in a broad bipartisan manner has rejected the suggestion that the President is not eligible for office. See H.R. Res. 593, 111th Cong. (2009) (commemorating, by vote of 378-0, the 50th anniversary of Hawaii’s statehood and stating, “the 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama, was born in Hawaii on August 4, 1961”). “—US District Court Judge Clay D. Land in dismissing Captain Connie Rhodes v Colonel Thomas MacDonald et. al., September 16, 2009

How can you not admire her for sticking up for the constitution. I think she has more guts than 90% of the GOP.

Interesting findings.

It is up to Zero to prove he is a natural born citizen, not Ms. Taitz to disprove it. Zero has already publically admitted that he was born a British citizen, as were most if not all of our Founding Fathers. Our Founders did not regard themselves as natural born citizens and wrote an exemption for them into our Constitution; that exemption has expired and cannot apply to Zero.

The only thing quixotic about the case overseen by Judge Lamberth is his finding. There is nothing foolish or capricious about pointing out facts admitted by Zero that prove he is not Constitutionally qualified to hold office. It is sad to see a federal judge have such disregard for the law of the land.

Judge Carter undoubtedly displayed courage at Khe Sahn, because he certainly displayed none in his courtroom. The act of 69 million people in a popular election does nothing to amend or void our Constitution.

Judge Land is another unpatriotic moronic coward. Just because opposing candidates failed to question Zero's Constitutional qualifications does not negate those Consitutional criteria. Just because Congress appears happy with The Usurper doesn't amend or void our Constitution. And impeachment is a political proceeding; Ms. Taitz filed a legal action.

Finally, I find it interesting that Ms. Taitz's detractors here side step the facts and law in favor of ad hominem attacks. If conservatives are not willing and able to rally around the undisputed fact of Zero's natural-born British birth and our Constitution, America is no more.

She has more balls than you will ever think of having. She is fighting tooth and nail against YOUR president who offered YOU hope and change. GET IT?

Sounds like you have Orly Taitz confused with Jan Brewer who is in fact fighting Obama and Holder in a meaningful way. Governor Brewer's cause is creating heartburn for the Whitehouse, and for the Democratic Party in general. Orly is embarrassing conservatives while offering amusement for the Whitehouse.
