Woo hoo! Orly Taitz has denounced me by name!
I'm just an ordinary, undistinguished DUer -- I never dreamed I'd make the big time like this. Birther attorney Orly Taitz has posted a message on her website calling me a "criminal" and a "Marxist thug" because of some edits to her Wikipedia bio that she doesn't like.

Typical of her careful attention to accuracy, most of the edits she denounces weren't even mine.

If you're brave, you can read her blog entry yourself at http://www.orlytaitzesq.com/?p=9047 (but disable JavaScript and make sure you're protected -- in 2009, her site was reliably reported to be hosting malware). The followup at http://www.orlytaitzesq.com/?p=9158 is less entertaining, though it includes her dismissal of a bar complaint filed against her on the ground that she can't pronounce the complainant's name. Well, yeah, I don't see why we should let these foreigners express their opinions... oh... wait a minute....

There's some discussion of Taitz's rant partway down on the Wikipedia talk page.

10. I hadn't thought about that, but you're right, I should.
Maybe I'll go edit her article some more. :)

8. From one long-term (7 years, two months) wikipedia editor to another:
Thanks.

Looks like a tough BLP to monitor, with a ton of RS, NPOV, and FRINGE to contend with.... added to my watchlist.
