Birthers Attempt To Remove Obama From New Hampshire Primary (Obama wins 5-0)
Birthers Attempt To Remove Obama From New Hampshire Primary

The birther wars continue. Orly Taitz, birther queen of California, personally filed a complaint in New Hampshire on Saturday that challenged President Obama’s U.S. citizenship and argued for his removal from the state’s ballot, reports the Concord Monitor.

New Hampshire’s electoral governing body, the Ballot Law Commission, turned down the complaint in a public hearing via 5-0 vote. It got pretty ugly shortly thereafter.

“Traitors!” screamed the members of the attending public. “Treason!”

“You have no decency! You have no honesty! You’re committing treason!”

The group of birthers, which included several New Hampshire state representatives, erupted after the decision, shouting at the commission attorneys as they tried to exit the hearing room. Another state representative apparently suggested committee members should cover their face with a mask if they ever found themselves in his district.

3. What to make of this statement...
"Another state representative apparently suggested committee members should cover their face with a mask if they ever found themselves in his district." Sounds like a threat to me.

4. These committee members could find themselves in real danger, if...
all the birthers are as nutty as Taitz. They may really have to have some protection.

15. Nytty as a squirrel turd? That's the NH House...
They were the same nuts last week, or 50 years ago. At the moment, they are at the peak of ascendance, thanks (???) to a bunch of Tea Party money and push. Afte that dies down, it'll be back to the LTTE in the Weekly Shopper for most of 'em.

5. I had almost forgotten about Orly...
In her own report posted here, Orly Taitz assailed the commission as corrupt, citing as evidence the fact that all its members were Democrats.

“The level of corruption was unbelievable,” Taitz said. “We found out that all five members of the committee are Democrats. As I was presenting all of the evidence, people were listening and getting more and more angry.”

6. 'Except Brad Cook, the chair of the commission, is a prominent Republican.'

Orly doesn't care much about FACTS :)

I went to YouTube to see if Orly had ever been on The View - didn't find that BUT I found this

Orly Taitz: Giving Birth to A Pancake
(Taitz upset at the artist regarding the painting)

21. Brad Cook
on the ballot commission must have been mighty surprised to find out that he'd switched parties, given that he's a prominent Republican.

10. Taitz and these NH whackos are a gift that keep on giving. I LOVE IT !
Edited on Sun Nov-20-11 06:17 AM by RBInMaine
For goodness sake, don't discourage them. ENCOURAGE these whackos to stay on their crazy train. The more they do this, the more they shout this crazy shit, the more the good people of NH will want to run these TeaNuts out of town on a rail in the next election. It just doesn't get any crazier than this. It is a GIFT to Obama and the NH Dems. I LOVE IT !

12. Should read "Sanity Wins 5 - 0" This is no longer just a challenge to Obama..
... These deranged individuals are challenging the enlightened rule of law in a rational society.
This is a movement, created and fueled by Fox News and RW talk radio, which seeks to impose an alternate reality onto the rest of society.

Obama is the focus of their hatred today but what they really hate is rationality and reason when it falls outside their crude narrative that "he's not one of us".
