I've had the time today to go and do a lot of reading on this issue and I'm beginning to wonder if Taitz has been nothing more than a high profile foil for the current administration. Ammo for the opposition, as it were, what with the "birthers haven't won a case" and "the courts have already decided the issue" all based upon mostly her cases. She is upon whom the concentration is focused, not the issue at hand.
And now all the fuss about using other lawyers? Does she figure nobody else has the ability to represent anybody besides her? Not likely.
Now that others are actually bringing a legitimate argument, and in their proper and legitimate venues, her current approach seems more and more to be nothing more than intentionally disruptive and distracting. She should bring her fraud charges into criminal court where it belongs. Ballot challenges aren't the venue for that action.

No, something just isn't kosher with these latest antics of hers and it diminishes any credibility and respect I had for her.

JMO and YMMV.

"I've had the time today to go and do a lot of reading on this issue and I'm beginning to wonder if Taitz has been nothing more than a high profile foil for the current administration."

I've been doing a good amount of reading on this tiff also. And material being thrown from both parties (the parties being Orly and pretty much anyone else that tries stealing her fire) and am rapidly coming to the conclusion that one of the following applies:

a) She's a genuine, yet quixotic crusader who is determined singlehandedly to bring down the illegitimate regime, thus shining the spotlight of truth on the cockroach-infested pit that is our very highest government. And of course become (more) rich and metamorphosing to famous from merely infamous. She even tried to pry her way into the work of Sheriff Joe's posse. Her ego could be as big, or bigger, than Barky's.

b) She is a crass opportunist of the lowest order, making big bucks off earnest, yet (at some point in time at least) naive people by selling them hope and stringing them along with failure after failure after failure, knowing all the while that they would go nowhere by design.

c) She's a Ringer.

This has been rattling around in my head for awhile, now. For the purposes of "Pick the Target, Freeze It, Personalize It and Polarize It," Orly would fit into the category of you couldn't order a better ridicule magnet for the "birther" movement than this character. Or could you? Order one, that is.

At the very least, Orly needs to accede to a supporting, rather than lead actor role in the current drama, especially the ballot challenge efforts, if she wishes to allay the, in some cases deep concerns about her behavior on the part of some folks following this issue who are alarmed by the drama.

You mean the enemy couldn't have wished for a better opponent? (And therefore perhaps she is an agent provocateur operating under a false flag?)

It is a thought that has crossed my mind from time to time, but the only way I could conceive of it would be for her to be on the payroll somehow. I cannot believe that someone would put so much effort into something without getting paid for it unless it was very much a true felt work. On the other hand, people can become enamored of all the fame and publicity, and she may be getting some sizable contributions.

At this point though, I have to regard her as a less than stellar ally rather than a clever and effective enemy, but i'm willing to look at evidence to the contrary.

Needless to say, it is something of which I think from time to time.
