Nothing succeeds like persistence – unless you're Orly Taitz.

The 52-year-old lawyer-dentist-real estate agent from Laguna Niguel brought her years-long battle to oust Barack Obama from the presidency to a federal courtroom Thursday in Sacramento.

Her appearance was part of a last-minute bid to stop the counting of electoral college votes in Washington, D.C., that will pave the way for the president's second inauguration Jan. 21.

She failed. Again.

But the hearing before U.S. District Judge Morrison C. England Jr. was hardly routine.

Keep in mind, Taitz is only one of many batshit crazy lawyers filing lawsuits, but after January 20 the number should drop off significantly because everything to do with the state courts becomes irrelevant and everything to do in the federal courts has already been tried.

"Why do you keep filing these lawsuits when they keep getting rejected?" England asked at one point.

Taitz responded by comparing herself to Thurgood Marshall and his persistence in filing suits to fight segregation. She explained that one of the plaintiffs is a Republican elector for Mitt Romney, who came in second to Obama in November.

Gotta admit, those racist dumbasses sure are persistent. Too bad they can't use their insane energy for something good, like cleaning up the parks or disease research.
