The Supreme's weigh in

Apparently, even this right-wing SCOTUS can't find any credibility in the birther claims. Today the Court, for the second time, upheld the $20,000 sanctions against the attorney pushing the frivolous claims in court.

Regards,

That's the good news. The bad news is that Alito agreed to hear the case - even after Thomas had refused.

Orly Taitz is a freakin' lunatic. (Have you ever seen her in one of her rants on the tube?) She needs to pay the fine and go away.

She too friggin' ignorant to see the irony of a Moldavan born bimbo challenging the birthplace of the President. How we as a nation give these idiots the time of day baffles me.

The twenty-four hour news cycle. First it gave us OJ. Now it's Orly Taitz and the Birthers.

CNN ruined the country.

It is kind of interesting to see the wingnuts cheering for a woman, born in the former Soviet Union, using her mail-order law degree to challenge the legitimacy of a democratically elected president.

Hear, Hear! News at Six and Eleven, and it must be NEWS, not a 24/7 political rant. It's the only way we can regain our sanity. Told a friend the other day;
"I liked America better when few people gave a shit about politics."
