Local group Citizens To Protect Fair Election Results ("CPFER") hired nationally-known attorney Larry Klayman to issue a legal challenge to the recall committee, Respect Arizona ("RA"). Klayman told Arizona's Politics on Monday that he would file a legal action on Thursday challenging the recall's constitutionality if RA did not withdraw.
Today, he sent out a fundraising e-mail through the national conservative website WND.com (formerly World Net Daily), along with a donations page on WND's SuperStore.
Klayman's fundraising appeal got the attention of birther attorney Orly Taitz, and she was not happy. She took to her website to blast WND and Arpaio. WND was a primary backer (media and fundraising) of the Sheriff's Posse's investigation into the President's birth certificate. Today, Taitz writes: "Arpaio collected money for over a year and never filed a criminal complaint against Obama. Please, tell WND and Arpaio “we will not donate one cent until we see a criminal complaint signed by Arpaio and stamped by the office of the District Attorney of Maricopa county and the Attorney General of AZ.” "
Taitz goes on to claim that the primary reason people are pushing the Arpaio recall is that they are afraid that the Sheriff will actually go after the President, and that Arpaio has every right and reason to use taxpayer monies to pursue a criminal complaint (based on the information that she gathered and forwarded to Arpaio).
Taitz also took a few shots at Klayman, noting that he is not licensed to practice law in Arizona and will not be able to file suit against RA.
The Taitz blast is the first sign that Arizona's Politics has seen that some birthers have lost patience with Arpaio and his Cold Case Posse. Not coincidentally, the leaders of the Surprise Tea Party Patriots who have been instrumental in the Cold Case Posse investigation into the birth certificate are also leading CPFER.

Moving the Arpaio Investigation of Obama's Identification Documents Forward.
Since September 15, 2011 the investigation into Barack Obama's Certificate of Live Birth has been ongoing by Sheriff Joe Arpaio's Cold Case Posse. Having developed the plan to investigate the authenticity of the Obama Certificate of Live Birth and having worked as a member of Sheriff Arpaio's Cold Case Posse, I believe I have more than a little knowledge about what has transpired since 242 of my fellow Maricopa citizens signed my petition requesting the sheriff's investigation on August 17, 2011. Sheriff Arpaio accepted our request and I was informed that the investigation would be done with the "utmost diligence."
As you may know, Sheriff Arpaio's office developed probable cause that the Obama long form birth certificate that was posted as a PDF file on the White House website on April 27, 2011, is indeed a computer generated forgery. Also, examined was information that determined that probable cause exits that the Obama Selective Service System registration form is also a criminal forgery. The Obama Social Security number has also raised serious questions about its legitimacy. All of this information was presented to the press on March 1, 2012 with little exposure given to the public by the news networks. As a result of the lack of news coverage, on March 31, 2012, my wife Denise and I organized a repeat press conference held at the Church on the Green in Sun City West, AZ. Over 1,200 people came to the press conference to learn the facts about Obama's identity documents that had been so carefully hidden by the media.
Fast forward to March 18, 2013. No state prosecutors will assist Sheriff Arpaio with his investigation. The local media has treated the investigation as a joke. Federal authorities have turned a blind eye to alleged criminal acts. Conservative news outlets appear to be afraid to address the birth certificate issue. And last but not least, the investigation is sure to be a major sore spot with the Arpaio foes who are attempting to recall the good sheriff. This, all because Sheriff Arpaio stood up for the Rule of Law and performed as a public servant as requested by his Maricopa County constituents.
Many times, over the course of the investigation, Sheriff Arpaio has stated that there simply is nowhere to go with the investigation for enforcement. My contention is that there is now only one appropriate place to go with probable cause that crimes have been committed, and that is to the United States Congress. I believe that the time is appropriate for Sheriff Arpaio to mail 435 certified letters to every member of the House of Representatives, demanding in no uncertain terms, that President Obama, as the direct beneficiary of alleged, criminally forged identification documents should now be Impeached for "high Crimes and Misdemeanors" under Article II, Section 4 of the United States Constitution.
Arpaio's decisive action will accomplish several objectives: 1.) The Impeachment process will result in a full Congressional investigation. 2.) Sheriff Arpaio will have completed his investigation and transferred the onus of enforcement onto the members of Congress. 3.) By publicizing the 435 Representatives contacted by Arpaio's office, their constituents can hold their elected U.S. Representatives responsible for adhering to their oaths to support and defend the Constitution. 4.) Sheriff Arpaio will have left no stone unturned and completed his investigation with the "utmost diligence" as promised. 5.) And, finally, Sheriff Arpaio will be forever known as the first county sheriff to ever ask Congress to Impeach a sitting U.S. President. Does it get any more courageous then that?
At 80 years of age, "the Toughest Sheriff in America" taking decisive action, may well be the chink in Obama's armor and bring this nightmare to an end.

Birtherwars. Those freaks don't know how to do anything but hate anyway.
Sigh...
I appreciate Orly's passion about this terribly important matter. But there must be some way that we can all hang in there together on it. Or we will most assuredly 'hang separately,' in the Divide & Conquer sense. This sort of thing just gives fuel to the Obamanistas; who need to be put in the fire. Not be allowed to stoke it.
Brian Reilly:
The reason the media is treating the birther "issue" like a joke, is because that's exactly what it is.
It deserves just as much attention as the flat earthers, who demand that the government recognize that the earth is not a sphere. Birthers and flat earthers are in exactly the same position. They have no real evidence, they make up crap and try to pass it off as evidence, and their premise is hogwash.
The real difference is that the flat earthers haven't lost over 200 court actions and won ZERO! So apparently they are a little more sane than birthers
Brian Reilly, you say that:
"I believe that the time is appropriate for Sheriff Arpaio to mail 435 certified letters to every member of the House of Representatives."
Does this mean that he is finally going to take that step, or is he still going after the 'forger of bad papers' instead of the 'passer and beneficiary of bad papers'?
I can't imagine that Law Enforcement officers that refuse to charge the 'bad check passer', and instead keep looking for the 'bad check writer and printer', are going to take this bold step at this time ... after refusing for over a year to charge the beneficiary of the passing of the bad papers (forged Certificate of Birth and forged Selective Service Registration).
Tell me I am wrong ... and how soon can I expect this positive action in breaking this case wide open.
All of this birther stuff was shown to be false over a year ago. But just send money.
The only people that wont disclose the truth, are those with something to hide. (Obama 2010)
1) Original, long-form 1961 Hawaiian birth certificate.
2) Marriage license between Obama’s father (Barak Sr.) and mother (Stanley Ann Dunham)— not found, not released
3) Obama’s baptism records — sealed
4) Obama’s adoption records — sealed
5) Records of Obama’s and his mother’s reptriation as US citizens on return from Indonesia — not found, not released
6) Name change (Barry Sotero to Barack Hussein Obama) records — not found, not released
7) Noelani Elementary School (Hawaii)— not released
8) Punahou School financial aid or school records — not released
9) Occidental College financial aid records — not released.
10) Columbia College records — not released

Hmmm, from the mouths of babes and idiots.

"All of this birther stuff was shown to be false over a year ago."
Really?
When?
What is the reason for Obama's fraudulent birth certificate, SSN and Selective Service application?
@ Anonymous
In regards to number 7, it's not that his records haven't been released, the records are missing.
"Obama’s sister Maya Soetoro-Ng confirms that the boy is Obama, however, the Department of Education has been unable to find his records."

@Anon @10:31: We can debate the whether/when/why of that list of items, and why Obama should be obligated to release them. But, I would like to provide some context for the Obama quote you used.
Unsurprisingly, it is in the context of urging legislation to require disclosure of who is behind campaign ads, etc. (a subject at the heart of many of the posts on this blog). That was a few months after the Supreme Court decision in Citizens United.
Here is a link to the text (http://1.usa.gov/ZFCGGZ) and video (http://youtu.be/6cKIPvfvxKo) of that 8/21/2010 Weekly Address.
Carry on.
His BC is not fraudulent - real computer experts (not pretend ones like the CCP uses) have said the pdf is not a fake.
"The PDF released by the White House shows no sign of digital manipulation or alterations. I see nothing that appears to be suspicious." Dr. Neal Krawetz (PhD in computer science).
"In summary I can only say I see much stronger signs of common MRC algorithmic processing of the image rather than some intentional manipulation." Professor Ricardo L. de Queiroz (Xerox imaging expert, professor of computer science)
There is zero evidence that his SSN is fake, was issued to anyone else or is any way out of the ordinary. The Social Security Administration website has said continuously from at least 2000 that the geographic prefix is not any kind of geographic locator. The 1890 DOB is not the only DOB in the database, there is also a DOB of 1990 for a SSN issued in 1977. The public databases used have errors in them, it is why the courts will not accept them as evidence. BTW, the Harrison J. Bounel name first appeared in the databases in November, 2009, it has never appeared in any database before that date.
His Selective Service registration was verified by the Selective Service Administration in February and August of 2008. An image of his SSR card was released to the public in October, 2008. That's during the Bush Administration. President Obama's SSR card has a 10 digit Document Locator Number (DLN) stamped on it. Other SSR cards from the same Post Office, from the same time period (July/August, 1980)have similar 10 digit DLNs.
Date - JUL 31 1980 DLN - 0897 080 653 (Darrel Oniwa)
Date - JUL 29 1980 DLN - 0897 080 632 (Barack Obama)
Date - AUG 02 1980 DLN - 0897 080 613 (Bruce Henderson)
So for the theory to be correct - the forger would have had to do the following:
1) Obtain a 1980 era SSR card.
2) Obtain a obsolete, round Makiki Station Post Office hand stamp.
3) Obtain a 1980s era DLN.
4) Make two microfilm images of the document.
5) Break into the Selective Service System's computer database and insert President Obama's info.
6) Break into two Federal Data Centers and splice their microfilm image onto the rolls of microfilm.
But his same group could not find a 19xx date plug????? Think about it, they would not even have to find a 1980 plug. A 1970 plug or a 1975 plug or a 19anything plug would do as they would just cut off the first two digits. But if you really think about since they only needed two microfilm images to splice onto the original microfilm rolls, they wouldn't even need a real SSR card or hand stamp or date plug, they could have just photoshopped an image and made a microfilm image of that.
How many of these type of records have you seen for any other President or even Presidential candidate?
@ Anonymous 2:27
Wow that's great !!
So if there is proof that the birth certificate, SSN and Selective Service application are genuine, why hasn't the president addressed the Birther nonsense in a court of law?
@ Anonymous 2:30
How many presidential candidates had Kenya listed as a place of birth in his own book's bio, uncorrected for 7 years or had commented many times about his African "homeland"?
Why exactly should he? Should he respond to every crack pot law suit? Where does it end? The fact is his lawyers and advisors would tell him not to submit a damn thing to terrorists like the birthers. And I agree completely.
Here is another fact for you to consider - Presidents do things for reasons that random people can not understand - things like precedent.
Here is an example of president's not addressing issues.
President George Bush and Vice-President Dick Cheney refused to testify before the 9/11 Commission. They finally agreed only under the following conditions:
They could testify together, at the same time.
They would not be under oath.
There would be no recording or transcription of the meeting.
Compare that to the testimony of Former President Clinton and Former Vice-President Gore;
They testifies separately.
They testified under oath.
Their testimony was recorded.
Is the murder of over 3000 Americans just a little more important a birth certificate?
The author of the bio said that she made a mistake and that President Obama did not submit any information to them about being born in Kenya.
But may be you can explain why in 1990 (one year before the bio) President Obama told the LA Times, the New York Times and the Chicago Tribune that he was born in Hawaii? Or why between 1990 and 2000 there are almost a dozen articles in newspapers of magazines as well as his official Illinois Senate website that say he was born in Hawaii? Oh yeah, can you explain why in the book sold by that literary agent he says that he was born in Hawaii?
In fact between 1990 and 2000 there is only one mention of being born in Kenya and a dozens that say Hawaii.
Try googling "President Reagan Ballyporeen Welcome Home Photo" you should be able to find President Reagan standing under a banner that says "Welcome Home to Ballyporeen, Mr. President". Was President Reagan born in Ireland?
Brian Rielly, your time is nearly over. Time to meet the piper. The gates of hell are waiting for you. There is no room for racists in heaven.
Arizona can pass race base laws, pass Birthers laws and the state can continue to boycott Martin Luther King Day, well the rest of the Country can boycott the state of Arizona and spank them where it hurts them the most their pocket book. Their phony patriotism is sickening, they are just racists going by another name. We all know you are just itching to put a sheet on their head? Let’s face it the Republicans had eight years to deal with health care, immigration, climate change and financial oversight and governance and they failed. It appears that the Republican Party is only good at starting wars (two in eight years, with fat War profiteering contracts to friends of Cheney/Bush) but not at winning wars as seen by the continuing line of body bags that keep coming home. The Republicans party will continue turned inward to their old fashion obstructionist party (and their Confederacy appreciation roots) because they continue to allow a small portions (but very loud portion) of their party of “birthers, baggers and blowhards” to rule their party. I will admit that this fringe is very good at playing “Follow the Leader” by listening to their dullard leaders, Beck, Hedgecock, Hannity, O’Reilly, Rush, Savage, Sarah Bailin, Orly Taitz, Victoria Jackson, Michele Bachmann and the rest of the Blowhards and acting as ill programmed robots (they have already acted against doctors that perform abortions). The Birthers and the Tea party crowd think they can scare, intimidate and force others to go along with them by comments like “This time we came unarmed”, let me tell you something not all ex-military join the fringe militia crazies who don’t pay taxes and run around with face paint in the parks playing commando, the majority are mature and understand that the world is more complicated and grey than the black and white that these simpleton make it out to be and that my friend is the point. The world is complicated and people like Hamilton, Lincoln, and Roosevelt believed that we should use government a little to increase social mobility, now it’s about dancing around the claim of government is the problem. The sainted Reagan passed the biggest tax increase in American history and as a result federal employment increased, but facts are lost when mired in mysticism and superstition. For a party that gave us Abraham Lincoln, it is tragic that the ranks are filled with too many empty suits and the crazy Birthers who have not learned that the way our courts work is that you get a competent lawyer, verifiable facts and present them to a judge, if the facts are real and not half baked internet lies, then, and only then, do you proceed to trial. The Birthers seem to be having a problem with their so called “facts”. Let’s face it no one will take the Birthers seriously until they win a case, but until then, you will continue to appear dumb, crazy or racist, or maybe all three. I heard that Orly Taitz now wants to investigate the “Republican 2009 Summer of Love” list: Assemblyman, Michael D. Duvall (CA), Senator John Ensign (NV), Senator Paul Stanley (TN), Governor Mark Stanford (SC), Board of Ed Chair, and Kristin Maguire AKA Bridget Keeney (SC), she wants to re-establish a family values party, that’s like saying that the Catholic Church cares about the welling being of children in their care, too late for that.
