In language that could be characterized as annoyance, Judge Clay Land of U.S. District Court of the Middle District of Georgia has given Orly Taitz 14 days to respond and explain why she should not be fined a $10,000.00 "sanction for misconduct" .
The case heard before Judge Land listed Army Capt. Connie Rhodes as Ms. Taitz's client, who alleges she does not have to follow orders because she doesn't believe President Obama is legitimately the president of the United States. The judge dismissed the case.
Ms Taitz had filed an "emergency request for stay of deployment" , pending a motion for Judge Land to rehear her client's case.
Ms. Taitz has filed a number of suits whose focus have been the claim that President Obama is not really the president of the United States, including one suit filed on behalf of fellow birther and former Republican candidate for president of the United States, Alan Keyes.
From the article:
Instead of seriously addressing the substance of the Court's order, counsel repeats her political diatribe against the President, complains that she did not have time to address dismissal of the action (although she sought expedited consideration), accuses the undersigned of treason, and maintains that "the United States District Courts in the 11th Circuit are subject to political pressure, external control, and . . . subservience to the same illegitimate chain of command which Plaintiff has previously protested.

Yup, she must like the abuse.

Karen, may I asked what happened to the video MSNBC's Dylan Ratigan Goes One-On-One with Obama "Birther" Lawyer Orly Taitz? As I commented when it was posted "I find this a true demonstration of arrogance and ignorance by Dylan Ratigan. Attorney Taitz should be commended for holding her own in the face of it."
It should be noted too that Ratigan avoided Taitz's questions on why the media is not covering a related California case.
In any event, thanks for this!

Rhonda, due to an ongoing glitch, whenever I attempt to edit, I lose all media that has been added if I edit after adding media.
I tried, unsuccessfully, to fix the block quote and lost the video on the story page.

I found it, Karen (on the front page:)). Sorry and thanks!

Thanks, Karen! I don't know if this is the problem, however, when I clicked on Search the NowPublic Library, NowPublic search tags are missing or have not been generated for this story. Consequently, and I have noticed this at other stories, it seems no video can be searched or uploaded. I'm sure you let the tech team know, right:)
at 05:37 on September 20th, 2009
All I know, Rhonda, is I have told the tech team about it and I have done nothing in the way of removing search tags nor do I know why they haven't been generated by the stories.
Even more bizarre, if I attempt to re-add any media, I am unable to do so. Yet, it is very selective. If I have only added video, I am still able to add photos after I edit and vice versa.
at 05:39 on September 20th, 2009
I don't know why they are not generating either. But, as I stated above, I have seen this on other author's stories. I'm sure it is a 'glitch' of some sort -- I haven't experienced it on any of my stories, yet:). Thanks for letting the tech team know!

Orly Taitz is a little out there as we say. A lot of her allegations are...well..a litlle extreme
She was one of the originators of the ‘birther’ movement that allege Obama is Kenyan, and so not eligible for the Presidency. She somewhat got disowned even by the ‘birthers’ as going too far, however, when she said in a MSNBC interview thet her detractors were “Obama’s brownshirts.” However, that is not her only theory as relate to the President. She has at various time alleged:
Now she is on the rampage again, and is causing quite the stir in Israel and with the Russian media. Though she has fairly much been confined to the lunatic fringe by most American commentators after alleging that Hugo Chavez owns the software that runs American voting machines.

Thank you, Rng, for the additional information on Ms. Taitz. It is amazing that many continue to find her proclamations credible.

I'll research your other points as time permits:)

rng, "A number of homosexuals from Obama’s former church have died mysteriously"
Choir conductor found murdered (abc 7news, December 24, 2007)
It is alleged that Donald Young contacted President Obama shortly before meeting his demise. Two other openly homosexual (black) men, Larry Bland and Nate Spencer, also members of Trinity United Church of Christ and murdered execution style-- all within 40 days of each other, beginning in 2007.
Given the close proximity of the deaths -- is it possible that they were orchestrated to look like a hate-crime or a serial killer on the loose to avoid detection that they were in fact pre-meditated acts of violence to cover for what some would deem "unacceptable relationships"?

rng, I stand corrected on Nate Spencer who apparently succumbed to HIV, “septicemia, pneumonia, HIV”, and was pronounced dead by a medical examiner on December 26, 2007. Nevertheless, that still leaves Young and Bland whose 'murders', to my understanding, have not been 'solved'.
