GA Judge Throws Out Birther Case, Lectures Orly Taitz About Frivolous Lawsuits

U.S. District Court Judge Clay Land today tossed out a complaint by an Army captain fighting deployment to Iraq by questioning the legitimacy of President Barack Obama.

Land also put attorney Orly Taitz, who represents Capt. Connie Rhodes and is a leader in the national "birther" movement, on notice by stating that she could face sanctions if she ever files a similar "frivolous" lawsuit in his court.

Needless to say this is evidence of liberal bias somewhere, or of Chicago machine shenanigans, or of, um, ACORN something or like maybe Antichristal activity of some type.

Of the plaintiff in the case, the judge said:
“(Rhodes) has presented no credible evidence and has made no reliable factual allegations to support her unsubstantiated, conclusory allegations and conjecture that President Obama is ineligible to serve as president of the United States,” Land states in his order. “Instead, she uses her complaint as a platform for spouting political rhetoric, such as her claims that the president is ‘an illegal usurper, an unlawful pretender, [and] an unqualified imposter.’”
And here's the most important bit of advice from judge Clay Land:
“Unlike in ‘Alice in Wonderland,’ simply saying something is so does not make it so".
This is something postmodern conservatives, birthers, deathers, beasters and 912ers really need to get through their skulls.
