Today I am shedding some "lyte" on sanity. Lately, it seems that our nation has gone batsh*t crazy. Tea Baggers march on Washington protesting whatever whacked out theory is currently echoing in their empty heads. Most of those theories placed their by Limbaugh, Beck and company. Republicans acting out during the President's address to them last week. And the greatest excuse for batsh*t crazy: a townhall on healthcare.
But every once in while, reality trumps fantasy. Facts triumph over ideology. That moment happened this week when US District Court Judge Clay Land tossed out a complaint lodged by Captain Connie Rhodes of the US Army. Capt. Rhodes claimed that she did not have to deploy to Iraq because President Obama was not legally the President because he was not a citizen.
In other words, Capt. Rhodes is a "birther". She was represented by Orly Taitz, who is the head inmate in the "birther" asylum and also happens to be a lawyer. Judge Clay put Taitz on notice that she could face sanctions if she continues to file such "frivolous" lawsuits.
It must be noted that Capt. Rhodes had not objected to serving in the military, only her deployment by President Obama. Wow, with loyal soldiers like this in the Army, who needs enemies?
