Soviet expatriot, provisional lawyer and birther extrodinair Orly Taitz has answered Judge Land’s request for her to explain why he shouldn’t fine her $10,000 with this motion of batshit crazy.
Some of her points as described by the TPM article:
I hope Land throws her in jail for contempt. He could do that, right?
Oh, yeah. He can have her locked up in a heart-beat. If it wouldn’t cause the nut-balls to go all frothy, he could start proceedings to have her expelled from the country.
One of the funnier parts-- the deposition in which someone states they saw Lands lunching with Eric Holder. You know Eric-- olive-skinned, moustachioed, small in stature. . …
I dunno, I mean Jack Thompson had that whole blow up with the… colorful… stuff when he was being disbarred. On the other hand, dude defended Mass Effect from Fox’s “fact” factory. What would be the Birther equivilent of that? I think she’s pretty even so far.
Wait, what? There’s a process to expel her from the country? She’s a citizen, right? There’s no way that I’m aware of to expel an American citizen from the country, except in extra-legal situations like Gitmo.
Is she a US citizen? I’ve always heard her described as a Russian expat, so I assumed she kept Russian citizenship. If she is a US citizen, then we will just have to settle for locking her up in the booby hatch for a few decades.
Wiki doesn’t say whether or not she’s a citizen. It does say that she has a second degree black belt in Taekwondo. She is a woman of many crazy talents.
I’m half-convinced that she’s an Andy Kaufman-type performance artist who is just getting a kick out of playing the far right for the fools that they are.
I vote for keeping her and revoking the motion for contempt and sanctions and giving her an award for entertainment value. She is the most entertaining lawyer I have ever heard of. Beats Jack Thompson by a country mile. Which country? You choose one of three.
