Birth of an Obsession With her strong will, busy travel schedule and breathless blogging, Laguna Niguel dentist Orly Taitz has become the most controversial figure in the effort to prove that President Barack Obama is foreign-born
Before she addressed the chief justice of the Supreme Court of the United States on March 13, Dr. Orly Taitz thought about his son and her sons and nearly started to cry.
This was after she had woken up at 3 a.m., headed to Kinko’s in Laguna Niguel, photocopied hundreds of pages, gotten on Interstate 5 heading south, answered questions on her cell phone from a radio station, caught a flight in San Diego, sat for a few hours in Salt Lake City, caught another flight, landed in Spokane, picked up a rental car, driven two hours in falling snow along the Washington-Idaho border, parked, entered University Ballroom at the University of Idaho, and then taken a seat to listen to a speech from Chief Justice John Roberts.
“This is a man who has his priorities straight,” said the law-school faculty member who introduced Roberts, going on to describe how Roberts had skipped part of the pre-event reception to be at his son’s baseball game.
That got Taitz thinking. She has three sons: One’s a singer with an “Elvis Presley voice,” another is a tenth-grade AP student who loves math and basketball, and another is studying to be a doctor at an Ivy League school. Since November of last year, Taitz has been “criss-crossing the country”; talking with activists, law-enforcement officers and government officials; filing lawsuits and finding plaintiffs; and speaking at events. She has had to hire extra help at her two dental offices; she can count on one hand the number of times she has been able to sit down and watch TV; and, worst, she has missed awards ceremonies, sports tournaments and family dinners with her sons. Her mascara-rimmed eyes teared up as she thought about all the time she’s never getting back.
After Roberts gave his talk, he took questions from the audience. Taitz, in her black, turtleneck sweater and gold pendant, was the first person at the microphone. She explained that she was a lawyer who had come all the way from Southern California. She asked Roberts whether he was “aware of some illegal activity that is going on in the Supreme Court of the United States,” and then mentioned that she had printed out a petition with hundreds of thousands of signatures asking for an investigation into the fact that “Barack Hussein Obama, a.k.a. Barry Soetoro, is totally ineligible to be president.” Audience members chuckled as she was interrupted by Roberts—“Thank you very much, ma’am”—and told that she could hand her suitcase full of documents to the security personnel in the room.

Outside the Santa Ana Courthouse in April, the day that disgraced ex-sheriff Mike Carona was to be sentenced for witness tampering, Taitz met with the Orange County press corps. The journalists had assembled to cover the ruling, but they instead found themselves being addressed by a woman with blond hair, long eyelashes, a low-cut blouse and hands full of binders. Taitz first approached the TV camera crews, but after a few moments of chatter, they directed her to the reporters a few feet away. “I know you,” she said to then-Los Angeles Times staff writer Christine Hanley—who, Taitz then implied, worked for Obama. As she handed out bound-and-laminated copies of her hundred-page legal pleadings to reporters, including the Weekly’s R. Scott Moxley, Taitz smiled and pontificated in her Eastern European accent about the clerks of the Supreme Court whom she believed had been sabotaging her lawsuits.
There’s a term some use for people like Taitz, and she doesn’t like it. It’s “birther”—or, if you want to be really mean, “birfer.” (The controversy was born on the Internet, so naturally the Internet gave it a goofy name.) While rumors about Obama’s background and citizenship simmered throughout the 2008 presidential campaign, after Election Day, those rumors coalesced into a near-religion for a group of true believers. To Taitz and the unknown number of people who agree with her, Barack Obama isn’t president and probably wasn’t even born in the U.S. Taitz, a Laguna Niguel dentist with a law degree from an online academy, has been awarded a few creative variations on the birther term: “The Queen Bee of Birferstan” is probably the best.
“That’s demeaning,” Taitz says. “I don’t call anybody names.”
This isn’t quite true. She calls Obama a “usurper” and an “arrogant jerk from Africa and Indonesia.” She called a judge an “idiot.” And she calls anyone who stands in her way an “Obama thug.” Taitz has built a sizable following on her blog; in the comments for each post at orlytaitzesq.com, you can read a few more names for people whom Taitz doesn’t like: “traitors,” “Muslims,” “terrorists.”

I think Polarik is continuing to investigate the legal fees being paid.
If that kid got a nickel each time that gets posted...
If they weren't worried, they'd just ignore the whole thing.
They're worried.
Don't think so, but I'm pretty sure she is citizen. Since she's not running for President, where SHE was born doesn't matter.
Better yet, a penny every time it gets accessed. :)
.
Dr. Orly was born in Russia.
She states that she knows what Obama is doing to this country because she lived with it in Russia.
This lady is out there every day doing more than ANY individual to get the usuper out.

Well, whaddya know! I thought you were dead, Cicci! I guess that it was just your crapola crapping out on you.
It's been a whole year now, and you're still flinging that brown thing? My oh My. I thought that that you would be doing something constructive, like taking a nap, scooping up dog dung on the company dole, or maybe learning how to lick stamps at home, You'd be great if you just stuck to it. Good to hear from ya. Good to know that your not still stuck on stupid with this phony balony, nonexistent document.
Are you still making those lovely Reynolds Wrap hats that you wore at the swap meets? Still have that Bumper sticker on your tailpile, the one that says, "I blow for Barack?"
The more things change, the less your brain. Still hanging on to that dream of yours: finding that Holy Pail and Obama's Shroud which has the inscription, "I won" on it. But, here's the skinny, CiciL there a'int none of dem bogus COLBs in here, so take yo greasy aluminum bird hats somewhere else. Unless yo wish to try them on with some slightly used tinfoil from Wendy's. Now they say that a mind is a terrible thing to waste, but you've already wasted all that was left in it. No worries, mate: your green oooze will be put on ice for you. There is no COLB for Obama. There never was. There was only one expert here and I'm the only one who put that puppy away.
It's as dead as disco. but I see you're still pushing the same, worn out baloney about Obama's`BC. Obama's COLB is bogus and is a nonexistent document. The images posted online are fabricated fakes. So, deal with it. Obama's toast, and you 'll be his jelly.
I believe two (not Hawaiian clerks) were illegally peeking into his PASSPORT records, and one was later found murdered...

I believe he was at the Press Club together with Orly and Schultz???
no she is not, but she loves this country more than some Americans.
does that matter?
NO, that won't do it!
It is far more complicated than the dam birth certificate!!
For full legal explanation see post # 50!!!
Guess what? They all pretty much have the same information such as hospital, doctor/midwife, address of mother and father, etc, etc., etc. Mine also has the same information in full.
Who is this Obama they speak of?
Where was he hatched?
What were the qualifications for admissions to the colleges he attended and under what status did he claim eligibility to attend?
What was his given status as a student? Foreign National or out of state student?
The question remains.
Mr. Obama. Where were you born and what is your legal status as pertains residency in this country? And still "Obama" does not show up in the spell checker of FR. That gives lie to the truth of his existence and legal status.
Please! Give that kid some nunchuks or a light saber!
POLARIK! You Magnificent Bastard!
Sorry, don’t feel like posting the pic.
Perhaps all your assertions are facts.
Where is that Birth Certificate? Why hide or conceal that document? Why not spend 20 bucks and shut up everyone?
If I were President Obama, I would release that long form and shut up all the naysayers. Why not do just that?
No. Like most immigrants who came here from a totalitarian regime, she doesn’t want to see the US turning into the country she left.
