Birther Moonbat Stopped From Hijacking Obamacare Lawsuit

By: Jeff Dunetz (Diary)  |  April 9th, 2010 at 10:15 AM  | 

RESIZE: AAA

As of now there are 19 states led Florida suing the federal government challenging the  Obamacare’s mandate to purchase health care. Orly Taitz, one of the Chief Moonbats in the birther movement,  has decided they need a dentist, HER. Earlier this week,Taitz filed a motion in federal court asking to be added to the Florida led Attorneys General Lawsuit essentially turning it into a combo birther/ Obamacare suit and discrediting the entire effort.

According to TPM her motion included this bit of insanity:

At the end it might be a stroke of providence that this unconstitutional bill was signed into law by an ineligible President, and that these responsive pleadings were submitted for consideration only a few days before the day of the ancient holiday of Passover, which celebrates freedom from bondage and usurpation.

Yes Orly, but in the story of Passover your motion would be considered the 11th plague, “loony-tunes.” Thankfully the judge threw the motion in the garbage saying in part:

Furthermore, with respect to Taitz’s motion in particular, I believe the parties to this case and the court should remain focused solely on the legal issues raised by the named plaintiffs, and not concern themselves with collateral issues (such as, for example, whether President Obama has provided sufficient proof of a valid birth certificate).

…which is legalese for “disappear moonbat.”

And to be honest at this point, fifteen months into the Obama Presidency, the vast majority of conservatives hope that Dr Taitz and all of the other birther moonbats just disappear or at least keep their crazy notions to themselves.

I should admit that I am a “reformed birther,” When I first started seeing the evidence during the early part of the 2008 campaign it made sense to me. That was until I saw the Barack Obama birth announcements that ran in local Hawaiian newspapers.  For those to be fake, Obama’s mom would have to have seen into the future, known he was going to run for president, and planted those announcements in 1961.

The only other explanation was that someone at the DNC performed one of those Star Trek maneuvers, when they fly toward the sun to pick up speed, circle the sun and come back in the past, like they did in Star Trek IV to get the Whales into the future. Since neither of those were rational explanations, right after the 2008 conventions, I published an anti-Birther post and took all of the other birth certificate stories of this site. I will continue to reject the birther movement until someone comes up with convincing evidence of time travel or, of course, the Starship Enterprise (I would even accept a Romulan Ship as long as the cloaking device still works).

Last July, Hawaii’s Dept. of Health Director reiterated the statement she made just before the election.

“I, Dr. Chiyome Fukino, director of the Hawai’i State Department of Health, have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawai’i State Department of Health verifying Barrack Hussein Obama was born in Hawai’i and is a natural-born American citizen. I have nothing further to add to this statement or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago…

Here’s the point, not only has Obama been proven to be American born many times over, the only person helped by the whole business is Barack Obama.

If I were President Obama and there were no birther movement, I would invent one. It destroys the credibility of anyone who talks about it. To moderates and liberals, the birther movement is the right-wing equivalent of those drooling liberals who were calling the 2000 election stolen, years after the election was over.

Worse than the fact the birther argument has been wrong many times over, it takes attention from the real arguments,in this case proving that Obamacare is unconstitutional.

For those of you who don’t believe that Obama is American born, look at it a different way, as Andrew Brietbart, told Joseph Farrah during the Tea Party Convention, it is not a winning issue.  Just like the lugnuts who are still counting chads a decade after George Bush defeated Al Gore, you are not going to win.  Besides if the birther thing was true,  Joe Biden, the SCHMOTUS would have let is slip it out months ago.

The only one served by the Birther movement is Barack Hussein Obama, because it gives him and his cronies the opportunity to dismiss the entire lot of us. Birthers like Orly Taitz need to wake up, the time for you to have let it go passed a year and a half ago.  Barack Obama may not be our kind of American, but he is an American never-the-less.  Lets fight against his policies, those are the arguments that we have a chance of winning.

There is a second issue about Obama’s birth. There are those who believe that he is born in the United States but unlike most democrats, do not believe that he was a “Virgin Birth,”  that argument about Obama’s birth is perfectly legitimate.

    The Honorable Barack Obama
    President of the United States of America
    1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
    Washington, D.C. 20500

    Dear Mr. President:

    For more than seventeen years, I have had the privilege of serving my country as a member of the U.S. Armed Forces, including overseas assignments in imminent danger/combat areas in Bosnia and Afghanistan.

    The United States is an example to the rest of the world of a stable, civilized democratic government where all men are created equal and the rule of law is cherished and obeyed. The U.S. military teaches and promotes the rule of law and civilian control of the military to many other nations and militaries around the world.

    Every soldier learns what constitutes a lawful order and is encouraged to stand up and object to unlawful orders. This is called “the duty to disobey.” My officer’s oath of office requires that I swear to support and defend the Constitution of the United States.

    I recently received deployment orders for a second deployment to Afghanistan. My orders included a requirement to bring copies of my birth certificate. I will provide a certified copy of my original birth certificate with common, standard identifiers, including the name of an attending physician and a hospital.

    Every day in transactions across the country, American citizens are required to prove their identity, and standards for identification have become even stricter since the terrorist attacks on 9/11.

    Since the fall of 2008, I have been troubled by reports that your original birth certificate remains concealed from public view along with many other records which, if released, would quickly end questions surrounding your place of birth and “natural born” status.

    Many people mistake the online Certification of Live Birth for an original birth certificate. Until the summer of 2009, the Hawaiian Department of Homelands would not accept this Certification of Live Birth to determine native Hawaiian identity–the Department insisted upon also reviewing an original birth certificate.

    Many do not understand that the online document was from 2007, generated by computer, laser-printed, and merely a certification that there is an original birth certificate on file which may or may not be sufficiently probative. An original birth certificate is the underlying document that presumably includes a hospital and attending physician’s or midwife’s name that should lay to rest the “natural born” dispute.

    In 2008, after pressure from the news media, Senator McCain produced an original birth certificate from the Panama Canal Zone; a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing examined and affirmed his “natural born” status and Constitutional eligibility to serve as President.

    The U.S. Senate was silent about your eligibility, despite statements from Kenyan citizens that you were born in Mombassa, including your paternal grandmother and the Ambassador from Kenya to the U.S. during a radio interview. Hawaiian state officials claim they cannot release an original birth certificate without your consent.

    I have attempted through my chain of command for many months to get answers to the questions surrounding your eligibility. I also sought answers, unsuccessfully, through my Congressional delegation.

    You serve as my Commander-in-Chief. Given the fact that the certification that your campaign posted online was not a document that the Hawaiian Department of Homelands regarded as a sufficient substitute for the original birth certificate and given that it has been your personal decision that has prevented the Hawaiian Department of Health from releasing your original birth certificate or any Hawaiian hospital from releasing your records, the burden of proof must rest with you.

    Please assure the American people that you are indeed constitutionally eligible to serve as Commander-in-Chief and thereby may lawfully direct service members into harm’s way.

    I will be proud to deploy to Afghanistan to further serve my country and my fellow soldiers, but I should only do so with the knowledge that this important provision of our Constitution is respected and obeyed. The people that continue to risk their lives and give the ultimate sacrifice to the service of our country deserve to know they do so upholding their vows to the oath of office and the Constitution.

    Unless it is established (by this sufficient proof that should be easily within your power to provide) that you are constitutionally eligible to serve as President and my Commander-in-Chief, I, and all other military officers may be following illegal orders.

    Therefore, sir, until an original birth certificate is brought forward that validates your eligibility and puts to rest the other reasonable questions surrounding your unproven eligibility; I cannot in good conscience obey ANY military orders.

    Respectfully,

    Terrence Lakin
    Lieutenant Colonel, United States Army

    Dr. Terrence Lakin, MD is an active duty Army Lieutenant Colonel who serves as Chief of Primary Care at the Pentagon’s TRICARE health clinic.
