Speakeasy: O’Donnell kicks Taitz off show

“Great, this just gives us more time for Barney Frank.”

MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell‘s remark after kicking birther Orly Taitz off his show Wednesday night. O’Donnell wanted Taitz to talk about President Obama publicly releasing his long-form birth certificate. She did not, and instead brought another document with her saying it was further evidence that the president was not born in the United States. Taitz requested a close-up shot of the document, which first led to a few seconds of bizarre camera angles, and then a shouting match with O’Donnell before he gave her the boot.
