GOP bad dream: Birther on ticket
California Republicans optimistic about their prospects in November could find themselves with a bit of a problem after the votes are counted in Tuesday's primaries — a statewide ticket with the so-called "Birther Queen" as one of their candidates.
Orly Taitz is an Israeli émigré who has spent the past two years filing lawsuits challenging President Barack Obama's right to be president on the grounds that he was born in Kenya. In the process, she has earned herself $20,000 in court fines.
Now she's running for the GOP nomination for secretary of state, and with her establishment-backed primary opponent mounting a less-than-stellar campaign against her, operatives say there's a chance she could win.
But longtime California GOP strategist Allan Hoffenblum, who publishes the California Target Book, says a Taitz victory is entirely possible. "It will be a complete embarrassment if she wins, but these things can happen," he said.

Oh God yes. :lulz:
Where can I donate to her campaign?
:lulz: This is priceless.
Palin/Taitz 2012!
If she wins, I'm moving.
The conservatives here will be insufferable (and most people in my neck of the woods are conservatives) and she in general worries me about political reform. Perhaps I'm over reacting, though.

Um, she's a fucking nutcase. This will be the funniest thing since Al Haig.

Dangerous insanity is usually best viewed from a distance, and behind thick plexiglass windows.

That will be awfully hard to beat, but yeah, I agree..... :lulz:

This ain't gonna be your century.
She lost the primary.
She is however suing the guy who won, claiming he isn't qualified to hold the office. :lulz:
You can get sued for ANYTHING. :lulz:

So it's basically a pattern with her... :lulz:
Let's hope she gets slapped with more fines. I believe the last one was for $20k, but maybe she'll have to shell out more this time.
She makes Sarah Palin look like a rational and brilliant person. That is, if they were the only two people in the room.
