She’s baaaaaaaack … in the Wikipedia

I seem to recall that there was a Wikipedia article about Orly Taitz some months back that was deleted. One of the requirements for people to be in the Wikipedia is that they be notable. Whatever may have been true at the time, one can hardly argue, after 2,500 words in The Washington Post, that Dr. Orly Taitz is not notable.

So, in its usual comprehensive and well-documented style, the Wikipedia has added a biography article on Orly Taitz. I thought it was a good article, and a good complement to the article on Barack Obama citizenship conspiracy theories.

By the way, the Wikipedia is looking for a photo of Orly to include in the article. They don’t use copyrighted images, so if any of you have snapped your own image, you might consider contributing it.

Notes from the infectious disease ward

Orly Taitz, DDS, Esq

Orly Taitz, DDS, Esq

While Orly Taitz’s blog is infected with the H1N1 Swine Malware, I’ll continue sporadic reports, using my full body respirator virtual machine browser. [Recall last April it was that Orly said not to get H1N1 vaccinations.] It looks like Orly is including email addresses of the folks whose emails she posts.

  • Post from queenofshina: Orly, I filed an official complaint with the FBI’s cyber division on Saturday about your Site being hacked…
  • Post from Lowell Banner: It have cancelled [sic] my emails from WND. Farah and Kreep are just in this for the money…
  • From Reader Gary Maslaac (who signed his note “Eddie”): Dear Champion of Freedom, The article focused mainly on Gary A. [sic] Creep [sic], [sic] it appeared you were in the court but contributed nothing. This report is a dis service [sic] to readers and is scarcely accurate…
  • From Reader carmen: Dr. Orly, Thank you for the unbelievable amount of good you are doing…. The favor of God is on you and with you…
  • From Reader KBB: Last week, I emailed my entire address list and advised them to not give a dime to USJF and specifically to Gary Kreep…
  • From Reader pip: …That pesky Judge seriously needs to consider growing a backbone [not clear which judge]
  • MORE COMMUNITY LEDERS [SIC] AMONG THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE THAT SIGNED UP AS MY FRIENDS ON FACEBOOK
  • NOTICE: I got a phone call from Liza Mundy, Washington Post reporter. She stated that the article was postponed to Tuesday. I guess theya [sic] are waiting for judge Carter’s opinion.
  • NADA [appropriately named article contains no text]

August must be world “Birther” month.

Here’s just a sample of media coverage in just the past week (taken from the Obama Conspiracy Theories Media page):

Birthers release forged Kenyan birth certificate for Obama, August 3, 2009, Salon.com. The document is just another in an increasingly long line of fakes intended to prove Obama wasn’t born in the U.S.

Forged Kenyan Document Splinters ‘Birther’ Movement, August 3, 2009, The Washington Independent. The new focus on a bogus document from an anonymous source has riven the small community of activists who are trying to prove that Barack Obama cannot be president of the United States.

When Did Americans Turn into a Bunch of Raving Lunatics?, August 4, 2009, Esquire. “Everyone who voted for him ought to leave the country,”

DNC Goes All In: Takes On Birthers, Conservative “Mob” In New Web Ad, August 4, 2009, Huffington Post. The Democratic National Committee released a notably aggressive web ad on Tuesday evening, accusing the Republican Party of being taken over by an angry mob of “birther” conspiracy theorists and disgruntled partisans.

Kenya ‘birth certificate’ said to be fake, August 4, 2009, UPI. In a post on the Politjab.com Web site, Steve Eddy of California said he discovered through an online search that the document released by “birther” Orly Taitz was a doctored version of the birth certificate for David Jeffrey Bomford, born in South Australia in April 1959, Salon.com reported Tuesday.

Assassinated Kennedy Predicted Obama’s Election

Robert Kennedy

Robert Kennedy

Noted psychic Robert F. Kennedy predicted the election of an African American president in 2008. In a 1968 radio address on the Voice of America, Kennedy said:

[Things are] moving so fast in race relations, a Negro could be president in 40 years … There is no question about it. In the next 40 years a Negro can achieve the same position that my brother had.

See the Washington Post (Washington, D.C.) May 27, 1968.

Kennedy was killed later that year.

Journalist Tim Russert died suddenly just 5 days after mentioning this prediction on the Meet the Press program (June 8, 2008).

Constitutional Fundamentalism

Dr. Conspiracy

Dr. Conspiracy

Fundamentalism refers to a belief in, and strict adherence to a set of basic principles (often religious in nature), a reaction to perceived doctrinal compromises with modern social and political life. Wikipedia.

The idea of using the category fundamentalism to describe some of the constitutional discussions tangential to Obama Conspiracy Theories came to me after reading an article about ConstitutionWatch.org filing a lawsuit saying Hillary Clinton was ineligible to be Secretary of State. (more…)
