In their latest attempt to push the idea that Obama isn't a citizen of the US, the so-called "Birthers" of the right-wing nutosphere get crushed like they were under the fist of an angry god.

Exerpts of note:

"This case, if it were allowed to proceed, would deserve mention in one of those books that seek to prove that the law is foolish or that America has too many lawyers with not enough to do. Even in its relatively short life the case has excited the blogosphere and the conspiracy theorists. The right thing to do is to bring it to an early end."

BUT... here's where the judge shows the strength of his pimp hand:

"Because it appears that the complaint in this case may have been presented for an improper purpose such as to harass; and that the interpleader claims and other legal contentions of plaintiff are not warranted by existing law or by non-frivolous arguments for extending, modifying or reversing existing law or for establishing new law, the accompanying order of dismissal requires Mr. Hemenway to show cause why he has not violated Rules 11(b)(1) and 11(b)(2) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, and why he should not be required to pay reasonable attorneys fees and other expenses to counsel for the defendants."

That sound you hear... is a million conservatives collectively shutting their yap.

That's All, Folks! Try the steak, it's excellent!
