Here’s Mike Castle, a Republican congressman from Delaware, trying to deal with the birther nonsense at a town hall meeting back on June 30. It really gets a little spooky when the woman hijacks the meeting with an impromptu demand for the Pledge of Allegiance. It’s hard to imagine a more vivid example of how easily false patriotism can trump reason and common sense.

Little do they know that she pointed out that he started the meeting without following State Law...

Pledge of Allegiance is REQUIRED at the start of all Governmental meetings.

She's still on the fringe - along with Keyes and Taitz.
