Hey, Jerry Corsi, while you are filing criminal complaints how about filing one against your boss

Jerome Corsi the author of the instant comedy classic, Where's the Birth Certificate, said Sunday night on the Bill Cunningham radio program that he will be "filing criminal charges against the White House for releasing a fraudulent birth certificate". You know the one the State of Hawaii says is valid? Just how does a building commit a crime? RC Radio strongly encourages Corsi to follow through on his pledge. Please call the FBI today and report this heinous crime. While you are at Jerry, we hope you could take the time to report an actual crime that might be in progress in your own house at World Net Daily. Is your boss Joe Farah committing fraud? He solicited donations to pay $15,000 to the hospital where Barack Obama as born. Now your lying weasel of a boss is welshing on that claim and pocketing the money that the poor fools donated. So Jerome, let's get cracking! Call the FBI. Do it today. Time is a wasting. If you need advice on how a citizen can file a criminal complaint we refer you to Walter "Cordwood" Fitzpatrick III and Sharon "Harpie" Rondeau. They both have lots of experience that they can share with you.They can even help you put together a "Fifth Amendment Grand Jury" to do the job.

If you report these crimes today I will forgive you for not naming the person in the press you say was involved in making the fake long form birth certificate and releasing those 25 Kenyan documents that prove someone tampered with Obama's "Kenyan birth records". All that stuff you promised to release yesterday can wait. Reporting crimes is obviously more important. Please tell us what the FBI has to say.

Update: Corsi appeared on the nutty Alex Jones radio show today (yeah that 911 Truther so insane that even Freeper owner Jim Robinson can't stomach him). He completely wimped out and said that World Nut Daily had hired a "world famous scanner expert" and that he would let the scanner expert file the criminal complaint. I guess Corsi would rather not known as the person filing groundless criminal complaints with the FBI.

Birther's keep digging and finding more proof; more proof that they are wrong!

The latest intrepid Birther sleuth is Eugene Bielinksi. Mr. Bielinksi was on the Chalice Show last night. He is an acquaintance of Chalice, a  fellow teabagger and Birther. He said he was the source of the Stanley Ann Dunham University of Washington transcripts that he obtained from the University of Washington and sent to Sharon Rondeau at the Post and Email. Those transcripts confirmed that the Birthers were wrong on claims that Dunham started classes in Seattle a mere two weeks after the young Obama was born in August 1961. The transcripts showed classes started a month later in September and that Dunham was a correspondence school student to boot.

[Comment: Does anyone else think it is odd that UW would send a complete stranger a copy of Stanley Dunham's college transcript? I think someone at UW screwed up.]

Bielinski, a Wisconsin resident who describes himself as a genealogist, said that he had contacted the University of Hawaii and confirmed that Barack Obama, Sr. was enrolled in summer school there in 1961. Ironically the summer term ended on August  4, 1961, the day of the future President's birth. Bielinski conceded that his finding means that Stanley would have had to travel on her own to Kenya in the seventh month of pregnancy or later for Obama to have been born there. He conceded that to be impossible considering the cost and difficulty of travel at the time. (This is something sane folks have been saying for two years, whether or not Obama Sr. was with her.) If Bielinski continues with this quality of research we may have to make him and honorary Obot! To this listener it was unclear what the point of Bielinski's appearance on the show actually was. It didn't help matters that Chalice did most of the talking and drawing all sorts of crazy conclusions along with her callers as to what the U of H information meant.

Sharon Meroni, aka Chalice, aka Chalice Jackson, aka Liberty Chalice, returned to BTR after a two month absence during which she has been part of an outside group of teabagging agitators in Wisconsin and had been continuing to ineptly pursue an appeal of her futile effort to make candidates show birth certificates against the Illinois State Board of Elections. About the only thing new we learned on that case is that her attorney, Steve Boulton, confided to Meroni that he would have preferred not to have come into the middle of this box full of manure. Boulton is a Republican party attorney from Chicago and is working part time to help Meroni with her appeal.  Meroni claimed that the Illinois Court of Appeals had accepted Boulton's motion to file the appeal late and that the ILSBOE now had 35 days to respond. Remember this case is an appeal of the dismissal of her mass challenges of third party candidates in the November election for US Senate.

As one chatter at the Fogbow so eloquently stated it "there are two hours of my life I will never get back".

Is Birther Radio on Life Support?

Maybe it is a coincidence or more likely it is a symptom of a growing realization that the cold hard fact is that they are not going to remove Obama from office but Birther radio is an endangered species of nuttiness.

From late 2008 through early 2009 Birther radio flourished at least as measured by the number of shows per week. Ed Hale and his Plains Radio Network was king for a while after the ex Hillary supporter and Big Foot slayer cum birther appeared on  CNN in late 2008. Only Ed knows what his real number of listeners were at the peak (he claimed 20 million but that is Ed-speak for 200). Ed ran 3 or 4 shows per week for months. Several of Ed's minions also had regular shows including Ken Dunbar who was one of the original two parent citizen birthers. Ed also ran auction shows where he sold seeds and crank operated radios at inflated prices. Other regular hosts were Caren Hale, Phil "Morals Man" Detrick, and Dr. Mike. Ed eventually drove away his hosts and listeners with his scams, drama queen antics, and lies about evidence on Obama he claimed to have. Ed's health also became an issue.

The final nail in the coffin for Plains Radio was driven when, after Ed had shut down PRN for the fourth or fifth time, he sold the equipment to Fred "Silver Surfer" Shaffner. Fred ran the new network as Texas Broadcasting for a few months. The friendly takeover didn't last long, however, after Ed claimed Fred had refused to pay him for the equipment. Ed claimed he won a judgment against Shaffner in small claims court but never seemed to recover his equipment. Ed came back on the air briefly but only for a show or two. The audio quality was of the can and string variety. TBN didn't last long either and Silver Surfer hasn't been heard from or seen on line in almost a year.

Ed Hale provided some of the classic moments in Birfer radio. My favorite is the night that Ed had a * huge * show about Orly Taitz filing request for an emergency TRO in Texas on behalf of CPT Connie Rhodes. This was hot breaking news. Unfortunately, Judge Xavier Rodriguez denied the request within 30 minutes and several "Obots" in PRN chat passed along the somber news. Ed didn't believe it, of course, and of course the Obots turned out to be right as they always were.

Blog Talk Radio was once the home of several regular Birther shows including MommaE's Radio Rebels, Mark McGrew, and the Patriots Heart Media Network run by Sharon Meroni under the pseudonym of Chalice Jackson. Chalice had several hosts under the PHMN banner including Chalice herself, CJ and Tallulah, David and Melissa, Reuben Torrez, and Lady Libertas. In peak months Chalice and her gang aired over 20 shows per month. Now Chalice and her hosts are MIA. Gone are the giddy days of trips to Washington DC to drop off American Grand Jury "Presentments" at disinterested Congressional offices and agencies followed by nightly shows regaling of the exciting adventures of Chalice, Dr. Penny, and Mac Ellis.

MommaE had to put her her show on hold for months due to health issues and has not returned to the air. She says she is no longer a Birther and is now a regular poster at the anti-birther site The Fogbow of all places. Mark McGrew of  Sentinel radio hasn't had a program since July 2010. Andrea Shea King still has an hour show every weeknight on BTR. Andrea spends most of her air time pushing anti-Obama World Net Daily inspired tripe. She still dabbles in Birtherism from time to time since it fits her Obama hating meme. She was caught recently deceptively editing the archive of a show with Dr. Greg Lakin and family mouthpiece Mario Ciavolino when a  caller got Greg to admit Terry had tried and failed to obtain a long form Hawaiian birth certificate for his daughter. When King was called out in chat the following night for the editing she laughed it off and lied about it.

I could say "How the mighty have fallen" but Birther radio was never mighty so it didn't have far to fall.
I am sure I have missed a player or two in the Birther radio saga. Please feel free to add to the list in the comments.
