After spending the past two years filing lawsuit after frivolous lawsuit accusing President Obama of being a super top-secret Kenyan plant, carrying on a hot and heavy affair with her legal assistant (disbarred attorney and convicted felon Charles Edward Lincoln, III) and collecting untold thousands from mouthbreathing dupes, dentist/mail order lawyer Orly Taitz has appealed to the United Nations for protection from "persecution" in the United States.
Orly's further descent into madness is documented in a release issued today by her attorney Jonathan Levy, a graduate of the same unaccredited Santa Ana law school (William Howard Taft University) that Taitz herself attended -- and the same guy retained by Orly to fight the $20,000 in sanctions levied against her for her previous courtroom antics involving the president's birth certificate.
Here is the full text of Levy's release:
Geneva:
Today the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights has
confirmed that American attorney Dr. Orly Taitz has applied for urgent
action under the mandate for human rights defenders.
Dr. Taitz, a well known Constitutional attorney, has been under increasing attack in the United States from groups and individuals opposed to her legal actions challenging the Constitutional qualifications of Barrack Hussein Obama to hold the office of President of the United States.
The California attorney has been the victim of death threats, vandalism, false complaints, and a suspected assassination attempt. Her reports to law enforcement and the judiciary have been ignored.
This office has been retained by Dr. Taitz to support her efforts for a UN investigation of her claims.

Attorney
1629 K Street NW Suite 300
Washington DC 20006 USA
I'm with Dave Weigel of the Washington Independent, who notes that "the irony of Taitz appealing to the hated organ of world government for this really goes without saying." And don't think her quickly dwindling number of supporters haven't noticed; even the Freepers have had enough of this lunatic, with one former supporter noting, "Uh oh. Crossing now into coocoo land."
Er, crossing now?
The Village Voice notes archly that
There is as yet no public response from Margaret Sekaggya, the U.N.'s Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights defenders.
