Orly Taitz Rambles, Is Yelled At By Dylan Ratigan (VIDEO)

Chief 'Birther' Orly Taitz appeared on MSNBC Friday morning either to defend her increasingly derided conspiracy theories or, as she seemed to see it, to trumpet a major victory against President Obama. She and host Dylan Ratigan mostly talked past each other.

Asked about a legal complaint about President Obama's citizenship that was thrown out of court recently, Taitz ignored the question and instead began rambling about a judge in California who has agreed to hear one of her challenges. "This is a major victory!" she proclaimed.

After trying and failing to interrupt Taitz several times, Ratigan finally shouted, "Orly, Orly! This is not a monologue, Orly! Now I will let you answer, but you will let me ask you questions or you will not come on this show. OK?" Orly laughed and responded, "OK, that's a real threat." She did not seem moved and, in fact, she used the next available opportunity to begin a new speech.

Asked why she thought one judge was hearing her conspiracy theories when another had dismissed them, and why she was continuing to challenge Obama's birth certificate in the face of so much evidence, Taitz responded, "I mean, how can you lie to your viewers like this? ... Nobody in this country, not one single person, has seen a hospital birth certificate... "

Ratigan cut her off again. "The genius thing about people like you is that you like to accuse others of lying as a way to cut a boulevard so you can just blather on a bunch of lies," he said. As Taitz began to interject, he concluded, "I appreciate your attempting the conversation. I admire your passion."

God, that eye make-up is so heavy, I am surprised her eyelids can even open.
Where is this woman from? She needs to be kept off television. She is obviously an attention seeker of the lowest form. Looks like the Right Wing's favorite word is "liar". What a joke these "birthers" have become. I am embarrassed for our country.

[leora kurtzer]

she keeps on saying which hospital was he born in.. it does not say it on his birth certificate... yadda yadda yadda... umm Orly there are tons of babies born at home or on the way to the hospital each day. what hospital were they born at (none) o well then according to your logic Orly none on those babies can become president of the u.s.

[Sandy248]

Where is this woman from? Clearly she wasn't born here in the USA.

[MarsAmbassador]

Oily Taintz needs to go away. Now.

[lovbug]

so? what's your point? my comment still stands.

[joselopez]

Why even humor this woman by giving her airtime.

[richnerd]

Here's the thing...... and why this hasn't emerged in the Birther monsoon I don't understand....

Any elected office holder in any of the three branches of the US Government, including the White House. who may potentially have access to top secret information undergoes a thorough background check by the FBI. Resumes, records, document verification, neighbors, family, friends, associations, affiliations....EVERYTHING is verified and vetted. Only a total fool would believe that our system of regulatory agencies and enforcement is so inherently flawed that the most important office in the world could be occupied by a impostor in some childish Manchurian Candidate fantasy.

I wish I could tap into the mass hysteria and stupidity for monetary gain.....I'm working on it though.

More than a neocon, she's a robocon.

[Sandy248]

Her eyes look strange. Almost like she's high on something.

My neighbors have a special needs uncle that lives with them. When they take him for walks they often have to calm him as he starts ranting about 10 ft birds trying to swoope down and take him away. She kind of reminds me of him, though he's seems more interesting.

Mainstream media: Politics reduced to a freak-show. Thank you TV corporations for this ongoing comedy series.

[nonofyabusiness]

They need to give the reporters a button to switch off or pause the "guests" when they go Orally..... S.c.r.e.w. the producers....

[blahdiblah]

There's something odd about her. Almost looks like she's in costume or disguise. Can't put my finger on it...

[richnerd]

A Russian cross-dresser perhaps?

[nonofyabusiness]

She look a little like a female Lurch...

[nonofyabusiness]

uuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhj

[nonofyabusiness]

I swear, when I first saw the msm reporting on Oily's spat with David Shuster and Tamron Hall, I thought that Saturday Night Live had made a parody of the Birfer Queen and that's what I was seeing. Was I pleasantly surprised that this was no spoof, but the real thing.

[Davonne Rushing]

Seriously, this woman is nothing short of annoying.

[SgtLucifer]

I hope Orly has a mental health insurance. She could use some mental health care.

[nonofyabusiness]

You said it!! Would anyone want THAT working on your teeth (let alone representing you in a court of law.)

[SteadyOn]

Orly: don't hold your breath until January "twenzy six", 'kay?

[Angiefranci]

Good for Ratigan! And what a ditz she is...help! How can we be so assailed by imbeciltiy so often. It's making me get really down. I mean, can it really be?
