There goes Dan, out there, bringin' the ruckus:

Birther Queen: Obama Persecuting Me with Placenta Painting!
— By Stephanie Mencimer| Tue May. 18, 2010 3:00 AM PDT

Orly Taitz, the queen bee of the birther movement, sounds distraught. “I’m going through hell,” she says. The California dentist-lawyer had called to tell me about what she says is a campaign to scare her family so that she’ll abandon her quest to become California’s next Secretary of State. She says she’s endured death threats and an attempt to tamper with her car. But this time, she says, her opponents have gone too far. The final straw? An elaborate oil painting of a nude Taitz, legs splayed, giving birth to… a pancake...

Orly Taitz to Subpoena Pancake Painter

— By Stephanie Mencimer

Just because she's spent the past few months campaigning to become California's next secretary of state doesn't mean that "birther" queen Dr. Orly Taitz has given up her many court battles seeking to prove that President Barack Obama is not an American citizen. On May 19, Taitz filed a "motion to reconsider" in her mostly failed lawsuit against Obama in DC federal court. And one basis for the motion was none other than a Mother Jones article! Yes, Taitz told the court that she has discovered new evidence of "intimidation and harassment" against her in my story on Dan Lacey, the Minnesota "Painter of Pancakes," who has painted some nude portraits of Taitz giving birth to a pancake.

Taitz told me in May that her opponents have sent copies of the painting to her children and family along with threatening emails in what she believes was an attempt to scare her into dropping her insurgent campaign to be the GOP's candidate for California's secretary of state. She suspects that one of Obama's powerful allies commissioned the painting. I asked Lacey about that and he was cagey on the subject. So Taitz wants to subpoena him to force him to out his benefactor. She writes:

"Recent article by Washington burro (sic) correspondent Stephanie Mencimer shows that “artist” Dan Lacey, who painted despicable art work series “Birther Orly Taitz”, showing Taitz nude, with her legs spread, giving birth and holding bloody placenta, which were sent to her children, posted on the Internet and a local paper, did not work on his own accord. Dan Lacey admitted, that he was commissioned, paid by someone to do this, it was a clear attempt to intimidate Taitz and pressure her to withdraw as a candidate...Lacey refused to provide the reporter Stephanie Mencimer with the name of the person who hired him, who paid him, however during the depositions and upon subpoena this information will be available and will be provided to the court. At this time Taitz cannot state with certainty who paid Dan Lacey, however it is common knowledge, that Billionaire George Soros, one of the biggest backers of Obama, through his organization Moveon.org, has commissioned numerous artists to promote Obama and denigrate his opponents and critics."

Lacey, for his part, has responded with a YouTube video in which he promises to reveal the identity of the "puppetmaster" behind the Pancake Birther series, pixel by pixel, as part of his new legal defense fundraising. He promises to enter the name of anyone who donates $2.37 to the defense fund into a drawing to win the new painting, which will be awarded at a "Colors of Orly" art show fundraiser in Minneapolis on July 4th.

looooooooool

keep up the good fight! taking a step back, the combination of 1) a legal battle between one http://i46.tinypic.com/rt2713.jpg Taitz, who not only relentlessly presses forward on her absurd birther beliefs but is also somehow always on television and found some spare time to run for secretary of state, and Dan Lacey, renowned painter of, among other things, pancakes, with 2) a micro-transaction fundraising campaign based on a pixel-by-pixel reveal of the artist's greatest http://i46.tinypic.com/rt2713.jpg painting of all, titled http://i46.tinypic.com/rt2713.jpg TAITZ: The Naked Pancake Truth...my mind is blown.

Noble pancake painter-of-the-stars Dan Lacey is doing his part to assist poor incarcerated hero maniac flight attendant Steven Slater—through art. Proceeds from this majestic insta-painting all go to Steven. Plus, see how nice it looks? Bid now. [EBay]

I was thinking today that I should go back and get Dan to paint a portrait of my dog
I still have no face chase on my wall

Steven Slater is an American hero tbh

Such a dog portrait would be worthwhile

what ever happened with the orly lady? was there more paintings of her? was the person who commissioned the paintings some big wig billionaire?

I said it was George Soros and I haven't heard from Orly since.

Yes, I would be honored to paint a portrait of your dog.

she said you are clearly deranged, how does that make you feel deep down?

I need to scrape some cash together and I'll get back to you Dan.

No rush-

I'm pretty happy with this new 'Casey' which I finished a few days ago; it started as a detailed acrylic which I re-painted with oil. It has a nice pasteled look-

In that Waterloo painting I purposefully placed the horizonline to evoke Dali. He used it quite a bit.

They are pancakes -

I don't care if I am at work. There was no way that I wasn't going to click on an image entitled "Rahm Emanuel Getting Sodomized by the Sears Tower"

Just to say, I don't consider this painting to be NSFW.
