Stephen Colbert Takes on "Birthers" and Orly Taitz


Clearly, I'm not the only one who finds great humor in the "birther" conspiracy theorist movement. Stephen Colbert has a masterful take down of them, by ostensibly agreeing with them of course. The "leader" of the birther movement, Orly Taitz--a dentist/lawyer/real estate agent/taekwondo champion/professional nutball--doesn't seem to recognize that Colbert the performer is razzing her as Colbert the character. But that just makes it more fun.

By the way, Colbert did miss the most obvious joke, that of Ms. Taitz's first name. As I'm sure I'm not the first to notice, her name is LOLCat-speak for "oh, really?"

(ORLYCat picture may be used by anybody who wants it by the way. She's actually Jinx, my alarm cat).

  1. To all the birthers in La, La Land, it is on you to prove to all of us that your assertion is true, if there are people who were there and support your position then show us the video (everyone has a price), either put up or frankly shut-up. I heard Orly Taitz, is selling a tape (I think it’s called “Money, Lies and Video tape”). She is from Orange County, CA, now I know what the mean when they say “behind the Orange Curtain”, when they talk about Orange County, the captial of Conspiracy Theories. You know Obama has a passport, he travel abroad before he was a Senator, but I guess he fooled them too?
