Ha Ha Ho Ho Hee Hee- Poor Orly not welcome at Republican Rally!
'Birther' not welcome at East Bay rally

Seema Mehta, Los Angeles Times

Wednesday, April 14, 2010

Several California Republican politicians, including Senate candidate Carly Fiorina, were scheduled to share the stage this week with one of the leaders of the "birther" movement that claims President Obama was not born in this country and is thus ineligible for his elected office.

Orly Taitz, an Orange County attorney who has gone to court many times to try to disqualify Obama, has been invited to speak Thursday at a Tax Day Tea Party rally in Pleasanton that is expected to draw thousands of people. Late Tuesday, organizers said that they had rescinded Taitz's invitation after questions were raised about her presence by candidates who had been contacted by the Los Angeles Times.

Bridget Melson, founder and president of the Pleasanton Tea Party, said the organization had been "getting calls from candidates like crazy."

"It's not worth it," she said. "She's too controversial. This is not what the Tea Party is about at this point."

2. What a crock of bullshit
Obviously the teabaggers thought she was what they were "about" when they invited her, but when actual elected officials who must be accountable told them they were going to bail, only then did they decide she wasn't what they were "about."

4. "She's too controversial."
"This is not what the Tea Party is about at this point."


In other words we want to promote Repukes for election now and we'll get back to "controversy" when it is convenient!

Orly, don't call us we'll call you!

5. heh heh - the teabaggers can't even figure out what idiotic conspiracy they trumpet.
And don't have the honesty to put a face on the wildest parts of the their deepest, secret desires.

God knows most of the teabaggers are birthers, racists, gun nuts, poor-hating blowhards (which is hilarious since most of them are likely poor or lower middle-class uneducated folk), and God knows that secretly they all want the birther Orly to speak and give them a sexual fantasy of rape and domination over the coloreds, liberals, those deliciously-sexy hard-muscled brown Muslim men...

but they also know that if they bring in the people who actually represent their views, they're gonna alienate the far more sensible intelligent majority of the Republican Party.

Or something like that.

7. The republican party and the Baggers must own these freaks!
Whenever I hear some "news" reporter say that the "Teaparty" isn't really about the christian militia and the birthers I want to shout. When ever I am in public and I need to refer to republicans I make a point of calling them Teabagger/Christian Militias.

Make them own it!
