What do you know about Philip J. Berg (sorry it’s long but good information!)?

The main person pushing the “Obama birth certificate” issue.

He’s a disgruntled Hillary supporter, who refused the call to party unity. He was also approached about filing this lawsuit by PUMA (abbr. Party Unity My A__, a group of disgruntled Hillary supporters).

He LOST his race for governor and the senate. I suspect that the people backing him in this lawsuit are the same people who would have voted against him in these races.

He lied about being the former Pennsylvania Deputy Attorney General, the Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General is given this title.

He has been successfully sued for legal malpractice. When he tried to respond with a fraud claim, the Judge found that it “was inadequately pled, not grounded in fact, time-barred, and utterly irrelevant to the pending malpractice action against him.” The court also found that Berg’s claim was motivated by a “desire to harass” and “delay litigation.” The court fined Berg $10,000 and ordered him to attend six hours of ethics training.

He ties up our courts with FRIVILOUS LAWSUITS and costs YOU money!!!!

He’s also a 9-11 CONSPIRACY THEORIST! How any of you can take this man seriously is beyond me! Why would you line yourself up with one conspiracy theory this man is pushing, when he also pushes reprehinsible ones such as the 9-11 “truth” scam? He’s obviously a nutjob!

“Philip J. Berg, Esquire stated in a letter to the nations throughout the world:

“Bush and his cronies made 9/11 happen or let it happen. And, if they let it happen, then they made it happen. Either way, they are responsible; and more important, they have completely and unequivocally covered-it-up!”

Listen, the birth certificate issue is simple. It’s all accusations. Every question out there has an answer (these from Ed Morissey, a conservative blogger):

A court is hearing this case, so it must be serious — Any fool with a lawyer and a couple of hundred dollars can file a lawsuit. That’s one of the reasons why tort reform is so badly needed. Frivolous lawsuits cost consumers billions of dollars. Conservatives used to make that argument, at least until Phillip Berg filed this lawsuit.

Why isn’t Obama answering the lawsuit? — Maybe because it’s ridiculous, and Berg has no standing to file it anyway.

Why not produce the birth certificate? — Obama has … twice now, once on his website and once to Fact Check.

Well, then, why didn’t he produce it sooner, smart guy? — Sooner than what? This came up at the end of the primaries, and the Obama campaign produced it within a couple of weeks. So far, that hasn’t done much to quell the conspiracy theories.

Why not produce the original birth certificate? — Most people, I’d wager, don’t have their own original birth certificate. If you applied to get your records, in most states you’d get what Obama has – a certification of live birth spit out from a computer system. I doubt Hawaii has the original record any longer, either. The certification proves citizenship well enough to get a passport.

Let’s stop chasing absurd conspiracy theories brought up by nutjobs who you would oppose on every other issue. It makes it harder to take you seriously when you bring up REAL concerns, like Obama’s policies and the direction he is taking our country.

X-r@y – Lol, yeah, sorry it’s long! At first I only knew about the 9-11 conspiracy BS but the more I read, the more I found out about this character! It’s pretty hilarious and puts everything in a new light
