BadFiction - a look at bad movies and worse politics

Dispatches from Birtherstan - 30-31 August 2011

In today's dispatches, Judge Lamberth tells Dr. Orly "no", starting off a wave of whining, complaints, and trash talk among the birtherstani. Several of whom step over the line into "The number for the FBI and/or Secret Service is...." territory.

Cody Judy decides to try and primary Obama all by his little lonesome. Neal Turner tells Congress "You get rid of the uppity black man or we'll get rid of you and YOU'LL BE SORRY!!!"

A new book by a "Tea Party Conservative" serves as an impressive debunking of Vogt, Irey, and the rest of World Nut Daily's stable of birth certificate "experts". Dr. Orly has her hand held though the ECF process, while her next Hawaiian adventure gets bumped to November.

Last but not least, Charles Kerchner, Lawrence Sellin, and Sher Zieve all indulge in some race baiting and fear mongering.

Happy Birthday Dr. Orly - Today is not your lucky day.

30 August - Today is Dr. Orly's birthday. And as a present, Judge Royce Lamberth issues a Memorandum and two orders.

08/30/2011 33 MEMORANDUM OPINION. Signed by Chief Judge Royce C. Lamberth on August 30, 2011. (lcrcl2) (Entered: 08/30/2011)

Goes to get popcorn, as this should be good......

Dispatches from Birtherstan - 27-29 August 2011

In today's dispatches, Dr. Orly feels the need to repost a James Manning video, while the people in Manning's neighborhood may be fed up with him. The Terry Lakin Action Fund has an extra special padawan on their show.

The very idea of Marco Rubio being nominated as President or Vice-President has the white hoods of the de Vattelists in a knot. Lawrence Sellin dislikes the media he once worked for (I guess he's upset he can't get work in it anymore. The secret cRAP Masters get exposed by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Dr. Orly shows herself to be an unthinking hate-filled automation without the slightest speck of human compassion (yes, I know, what else is new). Dean Haskins decides to pretend to offer (pinky to mouth) ten THOUSAND dollars. (He's not going to pay anyway, so why not shoot for a million???)

Dr. Orly is upset that the State of Hawaii Department of Health is actually CHALLENGING her. And more whiney Pest and eFail letters.

Dispatches from Birtherstan - 25-26 August 2011

(On edit - fixed a formatting glitch. 26 Aug 2011)

In today's dispatches, Tim Adams thesis gets the critique his professors should have done. Dr. Orly gets told by the birtherstani civil war judge "no, you can't have the other attorney's records, not yours, and oh, BTW, cut the crap or we'll sanction your happy ass".

The Department of Health for the State of Hawaii submits a reply to Dr. Orly's court claims basically stating "Look, the nitrous queen didn't submit the subpoena properly and we can't break state law just to make this twitwaffle happy."

Charles Dyer is taken into custody.

Walter Fitzpatrick is showing increased paranoia. Swiftboat liar Jerome Corsi continues his jihad against debunkers. Ann Barnhardt has gender and reality issues. Dr. Orly attracts someone even less connected to reality than she is.

"One Pissed-Off Vietnam Vet" gets all threaty, as does Lawrence Sellin. Pravda OnLine writer and KKK apologist Mark S. McGrew gets an invite to birtherpoolza. They shouldn't forget to invite Lame Cherry though, as LC goes further into insanityville. And while Birther Report loves to moderate those pesky Obots, threats and racist comments from fellow birthers is just A-OK Gym-Dandy with them.

Charles Dyer Captured

25 August - Charles Dyer has been captured.

"The search for Oklahoma fugitive Charles Dyer ended Thursday morning in the Fort Bend County community of Pecan Grove.

Dyer was walking down the street with no shirt when a Fort Bend County deputy spotted him around 8 a.m., according to the FBI.

He surrendered peacefully in the 9700 block of Mason Road near Farmer Road.

“He was arrested and taken to the Fort Bend County jail, where a fingerprint check confirmed his identity,” Houston FBI spokesperson Shauna Dunlap said in a written statement.

Dyer told deputies he hadn't eaten in four days."

Dispatches from Birtherstan - 23-24 August 2011

In today's dispatches, "Ulsterman" is back and still making crap up. The Pest and eFail have a new whiney letter, this time a "I'm not going to give you money until you're as crazy as I am" letter directed to the Heritage Foundation.

Charles Dyer is still on the loose.

Some snark about Dr. Orly's Luau Adventure. The Pest and eFail shows what they don't know about "Sharia Law". World Nut Daily has a poll for their readers with….interesting….questions. While dancing in Conspiracyland, Dr. Kate pimps a supposed "Native American" white nationalist.

The Pest and eFail talks to former SSgt Moran, and he's even more scary delusional than ever. Dr. Orly tries a "look at Berg, not me!" approach. "One Pissed-Off Vietnam Vet" seems to have a LotR thing going on. The Daily Caller talks about the birthers branching out against other politicians with the wrong colour skin. And some humour from Monroe County…..

Dispatches from Birtherstan - 19-22 August 2011

In today's dispatches, the birthers have a brand new OMGWTFBBQ Great White Hope moment that turns out not to be so. Lawrence Sellin continues to be his treasontasic self. Dean Haskins expands his birther challenge to four other people he'll ignore and not pay.

Meanwhile birtherpoolza gets another member listed. The Pest and eFail gets hacked by a redirect bug and goes apedump over Google before going "Oh, never mind". The Terry Lakin Action Fund wants their fellow birthers to keep digging deep into those pocket$

Carl Swensson seems to be a bit put out. Moran has promoted himself to "Almighty prophet and supreme leader of all the birtherstani" Polland / Poiarik keeps taking longer dives into Lake Insanity. And Dr. Orly goes "wahhh, I want a boat ride TOO!!!!"

Dispatches from Birtherstan - 16-18 August 2011

An apology for the delay on this one - an eye checkup yesterday followed by flaky internet left me unable to do more than the Charles Dyer update yesterday.

Anyway, Gary Wilmott goes "thank you sir, may I have another" to John Gibson. A Tea Party rep thinks that jokes about killing the President is just fine and dandy by her. Ron Polland continues to require a padded room somewhere.

Lolli Lolli Lolli suggests that if the birthers want to know who their enemy is, they should look in a mirror. However, he then suggests they stick to the same old stuff that hasn't worked before. Charles Kerchner joins the "Wahh, where's my military coup" brigade.

Carl Swensson's "Pitchfork Rally" turns out to be more of a "Broken KFC Spork Rally". Moran continues to tout his going AWOL over his objections to Obama, except the Air Force seems to be under the impression he was on terminal leave since his discharge was approved ten days before he "went AWOL". The Southern Poverty Law Center notes, yet again, the die hard birthers and their racist ties.

Some in the right-wing are starting to see "birther" as an example "nutcake" and "loser" And Lawrence Sellin is still upset that the scary black man is still President.

Charles Dyer Update

This is a special update to a person I have covered in the past. He's just gotten a whole lot scarier......

17 August - On 21 January 2010 I wrote an article about Charles Dyer aka "July4Patriot", an former Marine, "Oathkeeper", militia member, tea party member, and birther. Known for his half-skull mask and his old USMC dress blues, Dyer was in jail awaiting charges of possession of a grenade launcher and the alleged rape of a 7-year old family member.

He was acquitted on the weapons charges, and on 28 April 2011 a mistrial was declared in the sexual assault charges. He was released on bond at that time.

Dispatches from Birtherstan - 13-15 August 2011

In today's dispatches, Kevin Willmott has some fun with the sarcasm-lacking birtherstani. Zampolit Haskins continues to insult Colin Powell, while taking some time away from spamming debunkers to come up with Yet Another Idea That Will Fail.

Dr. Kate shows her lack of knowledge about history, while Tim Adams comes up with a Masters Thesis that may win a prize in the "fiction" category.

The big news in birtherstan is that of USAF SSgt Daryl Moran (Yes, that's his real name), currently stationed in Germany. Seems in March he had some sort of breakdown when he found out some of the people he worked with were Muslim. Ended up failing a psych evaluation board and was being processed for a discharge. Meanwhile, his downward spiral continued to the point he has now gone full metal birther and went AWOL from his duty station until they "arrest him or Obama".

Bets which one they chose?
