Orly Taitz is a lawyer, dentist and real estate agent based out of California who has filed several lawsuits on behalf of so-called "birthers," people who question whether President Obama was born in Hawaii and is eligible to serve as president.


Alleged Obama birth certificate from Kenya is a hoax

Steve Eddy of California, did a Google image search and came across a similar-looking birth certificate posted on a genealogy Web site by a South Australia man named David Jeffrey Bomford. Eddy put it side-by-side with the Obama one. Same format. Same book and page number in the birth registry. Some of the officials' last names were even the same.

Val Edyvean, Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages for South Australia said this:

"It appears that a South Australian loaded an image of his own birth certificate onto a family history website and that the format was used by others to 'create' a document which purported to be a Kenyan birth certificate for Barack Obama. As the South Australian man has now removed this image, and the date of his birth is in the period of certificates which are restricted from public access, I do not intend to add to speculation by commenting on details of either that certificate or any aspects of it."

The purported Kenyan birth certificate posted by Taitz is a fake.

So Orly Taitz --- Are you Kidding?
