Larry Klayman, the lawyer behind NSA lawsuit, sets date for coup against Obama

[Cali_Democrat]

Flashback:

The conservative attorney and birther who called for a coup against President Barack Obama earlier this month has scheduled what he's describing as a "day of reckoning."

Larry Klayman wrote Monday in Renew America that he's established Nov. 19 as the date that Obama will be forced to answer for his "criminality" and "Muslim, socialist, anti-Semitic, anti-Christian, anti-white, pro-illegal immigrant, pro-radical gay and lesbian agenda."

Klayman said he hopes his supporters will "descend on Washington, D.C., en masse, and demand that [Obama] leave town and resign from office if he does not want to face prison time."

1. I'm setting the Over/Under at 65 people

That's taking into account that most of Klayman's fans don't have jobs and can show up if they can hitch a ride with someone else.

4. I just found out my uncle traveled to DC to see his "rally" a few weeks ago

And by the by, my uncle hasn't been able to hold a job for more than a few months at a time his whole life. He does have a car though.

[sharp_stick]

7. Well then I'm marking him down as a +4

assuming he doesn't drive one of those lefty tiny-mobiles like a Smart Car.

I've got a cousin that bitches and moans about Government interference then grabs the Ag subsidies as fast as he can find them.

2. The coup happened last month. Didn't you notice?

[el_bryanto]

3. So would you say that the NSA does not deserve scrutiny?

[sharp_stick]

8. What does that have to do

with Klayman's coup du jour?

[el_bryanto]

10. Klayman is suing over NSA Surveillance

And there seems to be an effort to discredit him (in fairness he does seem pretty crazy).

[Cali_Democrat]

12. It's an effort....

being coordinated from Benghazi in order to distract America from selfie-gate so that Obama can spy on people while they're in the shower...or something.

[el_bryanto]

13. So you would say there's no need to pay attention to the NSA? nt

[sharp_stick]

17. No effort is needed to discredit

Klayman, he's crazier than a shit house rat.

The fact that he managed to hit a Federal judge that listened faster than the other 20 or 30 groups filing the exact same suit doesn't let him rise above the level of dogshit in my book.

[spanone]

28. mr klayman is right in his NSA suit, but he discredits himself in every other possible way

[Archae]

35. Klayman is not right in his suit against the NSA.

Klayman is suing *ONLY* because Obama, (who Klayman hates with a passion,) is President.

If Romney was President, Klayman would be giving the NSA free reign.

5. Unfortunately Larry Klayman's efforts have plenty of fans on DU, for some reason

Check out the recs here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=4184960

[SidDithers]

6. Yup. Some DUers just love Larry...

Any port in a storm, I guess.

[NuclearDem]

23. Good God, policy over personality!

Klayman's batshit history has nothing to do with people approving of the ruling!

[SomethingFishy]

25. Show me one Sid. Show me one DU'er who "loves Larry"

Most of us who think the NSA's actions are questionable at best, hate the fact that he managed to get his lawsuit in first. It gives people like you ammunition to fight off the scourge of people who don't like being treated like criminals.

Ammunition you use to falsely claim that "Some DU'ers Just Love Larry". Put your money where your mouth is. Find me a DU'er who "loves larry" not someone who agrees with his lawsuit, someone who actually like you say "loves larry". Find them for me, I'll wait here

[SidDithers]

27. walldude!!...

You're still here?

Sid

[SomethingFishy]

29. On occasion... Sometimes I get to missing you Sid so I pop in for a nice

Chianti and some Fava beans

[ChisolmTrailDem]

9. Looks to me like the recs are for the judge's ruling, not for Klayman. Because people like

and agree with the ruling, that must mean they like and agree with Klayman? Sorry but, fail.

[Vashta Nerada]

11. I recommended that thread based on the court's ruling.

It had nothing to do with Klayman.

Just like the NSA leaks from Snowden didn't have anything to do with Snowden and the contents of the cables dropped by Wikileaks had nothing to do with Assange.

Some of us are able to look at things beyond the person who brought them to light.

[neverforget]

16. Good grief

[muriel_volestrangler]

18. Fortunately, 190 DUers are able to look at a judgement about the NSA

without turning it into a judgement of Klayman's character or politics.

That you shrug at that makes me think you should never sever on a real-life jury - you seem unable to separate the process of justice from your personal feelings about people.

[SomethingFishy]

26. Funny, I see people who dislike the NSA in that thread

but no one who "Loves Larry".

You people need to find a new schtick.

[FSogol]

41. "You people!" BTW, when you find yourself as part of a lynch mob and the guy next to you is Larry

F'ing Klayman, maybe it is time to rethink what you are doing.

[Matariki]

30. Right. Because getting the NSA to stop illegally spying on US citizens is just crazy.

[myrna minx]

40. I recommended that post because of the ruling -

many are very concerned with the NSA - and rightly so, not because I'm a Klayman "fan".

[Comrade Grumpy]

14. I feel sorry for the OP. That he is reduced to such diversionary tactics.

[Cali_Democrat]

15. more to come.....oh yes

[muriel_volestrangler]

19. How many OPs will it take before even you call them spam? (nt)

[Cali_Democrat]

20. Perhaps that's a question for the hosts, a jury or the admins

Alert away if you would like!

[muriel_volestrangler]

24. Probably better to take the piss out of your desperate floundering

This could be quite funny for us.

[Cali_Democrat]

31. You seem angry

[muriel_volestrangler]

34. You seem unable to understand the word 'funny' (nt)

[DirkGently]

21. He's a crazy boob, AND the NSA broke the law.

No amount of spluttering can make one cancel out the other.

Deal with it.

[Douglas Carpenter]

22. if that's the case then the NSA MUST be allowed to monitor everyone's communications 24/7

[MannyGoldstein]

32. Ergo, anyone who disagrees with Spy On Everyone™ is a batshit crazy Republican

QED

Well done!

[DirkGently]

33. Only a pole-dancing "Paulite" could disagree. Hrmphfufumph.

[Archae]

36. Klayman only sued because Obama is President.

If Romney was our President right now, Klayman would be defending and even talking up the NSA spying.

[Rex]

39. BINGO!

Klayman doesn't hide his intentions one bit.

[Rex]

37. What is it that just drives the racist assholes insane over Obama, gee, what, could. it. be.

I know, let's ask Gene what he thinks

[Mz Pip]

38. Uh, Larry.

You may want to rethink this. This government you are so determined to overthrow has drones. Do you really think you have a snowballs chance in hell of staging a coup?
