<i>"I feel like I am in Nazi Germany in the 1930s."</i>

Orly: If you <i>really</i> want to feel like a Russian Jew in Nazi Germany, we could put you in a gas chamber*. Because that's what the real Nazis did. Fuck you for comparing the United States of America with Hitler's Germany. From Wikipedia: "Taitz has also said that she lost relatives in the Holocaust....". You dishonor them. ____________________________ * obligatory "with votes" disambiguation

Did she get her law degree from an ad in the back of Rolling Stone?

For citizenship purposes, you're right, it was made retroactive. As to whether that includes natural-born status for Presidential eligibility, that's never been tested, and very likely never will be tested. I'd personally say the fact that Congress has basically said that anyone born 1952-1986 under the tests implemented in 1986 was retroactively a citizen at birth makes them a natural-born* citizen for the Presidential test, but the Supreme Court sometimes hands down decisions that to my untrained opinion are plainly in error.

Turns out it's <em>soooooo</em> nearly moot, if Ann had been just 116 days older when Barack was born, he'd have automatically been a citizen wherever the birth took place (the test from 1952 to 1986 required the US citizen parent to have lived in the US for at least 10 years, 5 of them after that parent's 14th birthday; Ann had lived her entire life to the time of Barack's birth within the US - the family didn't move to Hawaii until after statehood - but she was just short of her 19th birthday)

* there are only two types of citizen - naturalized, and natural-born. Birthers would vigorously dispute this but only because they're idiots, if I really cared I'd dig up the Supreme Court precedent that said more or less exactly what I did, I think it's in <em>Wong Kim Ark</em>

I found Eugene Victor Tooms to be the creepiest "Monster of the Week".

Sheesh, she can't even spell derp right.

She's very white, and about as angelic as Dr. Szoll.

"Show cause" is a little closer.

She is good at bringing trumped-up charges.

She wouldn't be the first dentist to do unnecessary work for the money. She is probably the first to spend the money making a fool of herself in court.

First she should run a virus scan over it.

She can't keep her head even when nobody around her is either losing theirs or blaming it on her, but she <em>does</em> trust herself when all men doubt her.
