Today's dispatches include the cast of characters for next March's "Birther Summit". I'm going to have to assume a seperate venue to contain their egos.
The Pest and eFail finds their own pet anonymous source and continues their whiney letter tradition, while swiftboat liar Jerome Corsi pimps his latest source in his debunker jihad.
Lawrence Sellin continues to try and rile up his readers, while the Social Security Administration tells the judge "Yes, the nitrous queen did it again."
19 July - Dean Haskins announces the list of birtherstani celebrities attending his March 2012 "Birther Summit"
We already knew Gary Kreep and Philip Berg weren't invited due to the thoughtcrimes of undevattelspeak and doubleplus ungood orlyspeak. But who gets invited to the island??
"The following people have officially confirmed their participation in the Working Conference, which will occur on Wednesday, March 28, and will produce the Declaration of Constitutional Dependence:
Rev. David Manning, Mario Apuzzo, Dr. Orly Taitz, CDR Charles Kerchner (Ret.), Terry Lakin Action Fund, CPT Pamela Barnett (Ret.), Linda Bentley, Miki Booth, Susan Daniels, Tony Dolz, Don Fredrick, Dean Haskins, Paul Irey, David LaRocque, Jeff Lichter, William Lolli, Lyle Rapacki, Col. Lawrence Sellin (Ret.), Carl Swensson, Helen Tansey, Neil Turner, and Gary Wilmott."
Pretty strong B-list, with one A-lister (Dr. Orly). And Dean Haskins has to include himself. Two attorneys (granted, I use that word loosely with Dr. Orly, a couple of fake Ph.D., and some retired military. A quasi-journalist, some self-defined "experts", and a batch of pundits.
However, no love for Dr. Kate, "Citizen" Larry Wells, Ed Hale, Theresa Cao, Paul Vallely, Sharon Rondeau, Sam Sewell, Ron Polland/Polarik, or Bob Campbell?? Or did they just not confirm yet??
19 July - The Pest and eFail follows Jerome Corsi's lead and finds an anonymous source of their own!!
"Recently The Post & Email was contacted by someone who stated that he was told by very reliable business contacts within his company that they were provided information before the 2008 presidential election that Barack Hussein Obama II was born in Mombasa, Kenya. "
So it's a friend of a friend of a friend thing?
"MRS. RONDEAU: Thank you for contacting us regarding the knowledge which you said you have that Obama II was definitely born in Mombasa, Kenya. How did you learn that information?
INTERVIEWEE: Actually, it was prior to the presidential election when I had conversations with Atty. Philip Berg. He wanted to know if there was any way to find out if a certified copy of Obama’s Kenyan birth record could be obtained from any hospital in Kenya. We do a lot of business in that country and work very closely with the various ministries there as well as very high officials in the government,"
I smell bovine byproducts....
.... but the timing was such that the record had already been taken by Raila Odinga, the current prime minister of the country. I suppose if we had gone in there a month or so earlier, it might have still been possible for us to get it. It might still be possible to get it, but it would cost a lot of money and would be very, very difficult.
How.....convenient.
"MRS. RONDEAU: Have you looked at the alleged birth certificate that Mr. Lucas Smith has put out on the internet?
INTERVIEWEE: Yes. I recall that Orly Taitz had submitted it to Judge David O. Carter in her lawsuit. That was totally bogus and obviously fraudulent because Kenya was a country that was under British rule for many years, and when Obama was born, information on his birth record would have been given in metric measurements: height, weight, etc. The document I have seen has it in inches and pounds, so it’s totally fraudulent."
Granted, Lucas Smith's Fake Kenyan Birth Certificate is totally fraudulent, but not due to that reason. The United Kingdom didn't start to convert over to metrics until 1965, and while parts of the then-British Empire allowed the use of metrics from 1873 on, most Commonwealth nations didn't convert until the 1970's. Kenya started metrication in 1967.
So the claim that the document is frauduant because it uses Imperial measures is absurd. There are many other reasons it's a fake, but that's not one of them.
"MRS. RONDEAU: If your sources told you accurately that Raila Odinga or someone deep within the Kenyan government took custody of the document, then it would seem as if even a copy would not have been available at the hospital as Mr. Smith has claimed.
INTERVIEWEE: No, it would not. I know for a fact that Raila Odinga took it. "
So a friend of a friend of a friend told you that, so you know it as a fact.
What this teaches us:
1) The Pest and eFail will pubish anything.
2) Birthers will believe anything.
19 July - Swiftboat Liar Jerome Corsi comes up with a new claim in his curiously ineffective jihad against so-called "Obots".
The claim is that a particular commenter on PolitiJab (and later FogBow), called "Jimbot" and "Neonzx", is actually a supposed White House operative and former Fannie Mae chairman.
"A top Democrat, apparently operating with the full approval and cooperation of the president, has been directing a team of up to 100 who are paid to publish disinformation on a wide variety of websites to discredit "birthers," according to anti-Obama researchers.
The radical supporters of the president, known as Obama robots, or "OBOTs" for short, have confirmed their White House-appointed ring leader is Democratic Party operative James A. Johnson, the former chairman of Fannie Mae.
Initially, the OBOTs attempted to mask their Internet identities by posting under usernames with avatars that suggest their personalities. But due largely to the efforts of anti-Obama researchers, including "birthers" vilified by the OBOTs, the true identities of key OBOT operatives have been revealed."
And where did Corsi get the information for this ground-breaking news story??
"Ed Hale, the Texas-based creator of Plains Radio, has told WND that Johnson, posting on various OBOT websites under the username "JimBot," managed for the White House some 100 paid operatives around the country. Their primary job was to attack, refute and publish disinformation on any prominent "birthers."
Yes, Ed Hale. The same man who lied about his military record, claimed to have African Press International's "Michelle" Tape, not to mention his claim of having hunted and killed two Bigfoot on Art Bell's "Coast to Coast".
That Ed Hale. The snark, it writes itself.
"In an attempt to verify Johnson's sway with Obama, Hale said he told Johnson to have the president call a Michigan lady on her 110th birthday. Indeed, Michigan resident Leola Washington received an acknowledgment card on her birthday from President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama, as reported by KMOV-TV in St. Louis."
Actually it's tradition for the White House to send people 100 years old and older such a card. Next?
Oh, and lookie in comments, it's Dr. Orly's favourite, Leonard "Fist n' Cuffs" McCauley.
"Leonard McCauley · Top Commenter
Word has it, he's always been "Queer"...No problem finding Negro female mates with a couple of Fatherless Niglets to call it Daddy...DNA, is the only way to know for sure....George Soros created this monster, ask him."
"Leonard McCauley · Top Commenter
@Austin Baxter-I think Larry Snider got murdered, it was on the back page of a Chicago News Paper....Nothing ever investigated, unless the Jews want it done...But then, who cares about some White Queer?"
"Leonard McCauley · Top Commenter
@Bill Kohler- I c u r stiil a Negro missing link masquerading as a K9 animal."
"Leonard McCauley · Top Commenter
@Julie Owensby Tolleson-Where do u get off calling me anti-semite? I have only told the Truth...But, then Christ told the truth too and got Murdered by a bunch of Pharisees...As far as Racism goes...Negro's r not even considered a Race. Therefore, no racism here. From an anthropology point of view, I would have to say they r at the most, a Missing Link in the Chain approaching Humanity, a Species maybe, But definitely not Human."
"Leonard McCauley · Top Commenter
@Julie Owensby Tolleson-The fact that it is an Illegal Foreign Born Animal obviously makes "It's" Political View Points a moot subject."
"Leonard McCauley · Top Commenter
@Justin Chadaus - If people r not told the TRUTH about the History of America & the World. They must rely on the Zionist/Jew approved Lies being forced on our Youth by State Supported Institutions & Media....I am saying nothing but the TRuth...U may not like the way truth is presented...But. it is still "TRUTH" and not prettied up to make it more pallatable....So, yes, after my generation is gone, the Truth will live beyond us...Like it or not."
"Leonard McCauley · Top Commenter
"Man", is an indication of Humanity...That is where the argument has already been debated and legislated on, in 1837...THe Emancipation Proclamation is illegal, just like the current Presidency."
"Leonard McCauley · Top Commenter
True Americans don't... Just make believe types, Jews, women's libbers, queers & etc."
"Leonard McCauley · Top Commenter
TOOOO Late now! The Negro ain't legal...Most White People know that for a fact...No one cares about Negro's, except Jews & other Negoe's."
"Leonard McCauley · Top Commenter
Hey Bill, ur picture is perfect...All Negroe's have been legally legislated by the 1837 Congress, as not Human..And the Emancipation Proclamation is illegal as hell, just like ur Negro missing link, Imposter President. Long live the KKK, Hell's Angels and all other True American Patriots....Ur comment also makes u out to be delusional."
"Leonard McCauley · Top Commenter
John Acord, John Acord, Jon Elmer-The Negro is not a Race! It is a Species, possibly the Missing Link, Darwin was so fond of speaking about....No Racism discussed on my part...Animal Husbandry, maybe."
Charming person, eh??
19 July - Another whiney letter from the Pest and eFail.
"I applaud your efforts on the Government Oversight Committee with respect to Project Gunrunner; however I am extremely disturbed that you will not launch an investigation into Barack H. Obama. We the people are demanding an investigation. Immediately!"
If Not Sooner!
" I am very angry to discover that not one single Republican in either the House or the Senate rose to object to the Electoral College certification in January 2009. Not a single one."
"Wahhh!! You didn't believe our lies and do what we demanded!!"
"I can think of no better present to give to the Oval Office occupant than to declare the day before his so-called 50th birthday that Congress is launching an investigation into the birth certificate produced on April 27th. By the way, Mr. Issa, this isn’t a suggestion, this is a demand by WE THE PEOPLE."
Full of demands, isn't he? Well, that and other things....
"Ignore this at your own peril."
Ooooh, threaty.
20 July - Lawrence Sellin has a new treasonberry up.
"I think the American people have taken far too much abuse from a minority of foul, loud-mouthed, far-left, anti-American ideologues. There will be no more debates trying to respond to their deranged arguments. They are enemies of liberty. It is time to crush them."
"Crush them" eh?? Interesting terminology.
"We only have about ten months to rescue the United States from those people who want to destroy America."
What happens in May of 2012??
"Barack Obama is an illegal President and, most likely, a multiple felon. We must not permit him to enter another election cycle without his ineligibility for office and his alleged felonies being properly investigated."
"Wahhh! The scary black man might win the election!!"
"If our Congress and our government officials refuse to enforce the law, then it is time for ordinary Americans to organize and act to restore Constitutional and common sense government."
O RLY???
"Write the words “Obama crimes” on sticky notes and place them everywhere."
As ideas go, this ranks among one of the dumbest.
"Even one successful lawful citizen’s arrest of a Congress member will create political shock waves nationwide."
Yeah, but not in the way you might think.
"The symbol of our movement to take back our country will be the American flag.
Put a small flag in the window of your home or fly it outside. Fly a flag from your car, bike or baby stroller. Wear a flag pin or appropriate flag clothing.
Obama and his extremist followers hate the American flag. It will give them fits and, more than any poll, it will expose the extent and depth of our opposition to his radical policies."
They do??
So much for THAT idea.
"We must be prepared for the possibility that Obama will be re-nominated by the leftist-controlled Democratic Party and the Obama-owned main stream media."
"Wahhh! People might vote for the scary black man!!"
"In addition to being corrupt and inept, the Republican Party has participated in the violation of the Constitution, ignored the will of the people and now operates outside of the rule of law.
As they are now composed and operate, the Republicans can no longer be trusted to decide our future. They must either be purged or replaced."
"Purged and replaced"??? Wow. Stalin himself couldn't have said it better. You read Sellin right, any GOP member that doesn't stick to the birtherstani party line needs to be "purged and replaced".
I'm surprised he didn't add "and sent to the gulag for political re-education" as well.
"A nationwide political insurgency must be launched to counter Obama’s anti-American agenda and the rampant corruption in Washington D.C."
"Insurgency", eh??
"I believe Obama and his radical supporters will use all means legal or illegal to win in 2012.
We should challenge Obama and the Democrats on their misguided policies, but in a street fight you can be sure that Obama, his thugs, his powerful leftist financiers and his radical followers will not play by any rules.
Expect to see all forms of intimidation: race baiting, threats from unions, menacing of voters by Black Panthers and violent flash mobs.
It will be necessary, therefore, to establish counter-intimidation teams to protect peaceful citizens trying to exercise their Constitutional rights."
Basically what he's doing here is calling for his readers to harass, threaten, intimidate, or otherwise attack anyone they suspect of being an Obama supporter, by claiming those supporters are going to do that to his readers.
Projection much?
In comments:
"I hear the frustration in all your articles Lawrence and I must say that many of us are feeling that things are not right. It is almost to the point that Obama and his minions want us to riot. I know everyone around us are seeing a change for the worst in our way of life. Have hope. We are waiting and organizing. The American people will not disappoint.

"Waiting and organizing", eh?
20 July - SSA files a motion to strike Dr. Orly's opposition to motion for summary judgement.
(Scribd link here)
"Those filings contain numerous social-security numbers, along with Plaintiff’s allegations as to the individuals to whom those numbers are assigned. “Unless the court orders otherwise, in an electronic or paper filing with the court that contains an individual’s social-security number . . . a party or nonparty making the filing may include only . . . the last four digits of the social-security number.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 5.2(a)(1). This is the third time Plaintiff has filed documents that include unredacted social-security numbers in violation of Rule 5.2, and it follows this Court’s order striking Plaintiff’s Complaint, First Amended Complaint, and attached exhibits because they contained unredacted social-security numbers."
Translation - "Yes, she's STILL breaking court local rules your Honor, despite your warning".
"Wahhh! The scary black man might win the election!!"
Shouldn't that be
"Wahhh! The scary black man might win the election AGAIN!!"

That there Leonard McCauley is a regular swine.

Looks like the birthers have thrown away the racist dog whistles and just brought out the dogs themselves. They are truly vile individuals.
Posted by: Glix | July 20, 2011 at 08:42 PM
Ah, "Waiting and organizing"...the Birther Keyboard Commando fantasy phrase which translates merely into sitting on their duff, reading birther blog sites and hoping someone "else" takes "action" for them...
Thankfully, most of these hatemongering dufuses are barely capable of leaving their chair, much less get anything done. It is the "lone wolf" nuts that they desperately wish to inspire that concern me...

Haskins has added to the Birther Summit list. The only name I recognized was Neil Sankey.
Posted by: Dr. Conspiracy | July 21, 2011 at 06:42 AM
Sellin's attempt to claim the flag as their symbol is brilliant. Now, any time they can show anyone flying, wearing or otherwise displaying the flag, they can claim that person or organization is supporting them.
So we've gotta think fast here. I propose that we make our symbol...the nose. Anyone walking around with a nose on their face is obviously someone who knows the birthers are liars and idiots.
Posted by: ASK Esq | July 21, 2011 at 08:50 AM
"...someone who 'nose' the birthers are liars..."?
Well played.
