Former Congressman J.D. Hayworth Joins the Birthers
By David Weigel 7/17/09 4:29 PM


J.D. Hayworth, a former Arizona Republican congressman who went down to a narrow defeat in 2006, now hosts a radio show on KFYI 550. Today he interviewed Orly Taitz, the luckless attorney for Maj. Stefan Cook, and gave her plenty of airtime to misinform about her latest court defeat. Audio of the interview is here.

Cook volunteered for duty in Afghanistan, then asked for a stay until the president proved that he was an American citizen, then acted surprised when his deployment was canceled. While Lt. Com. William Speaks, a spokesman for CentCom, has debunked Taitz’s conspiracy theories about the court defeat—she has repeatedly and falsely claimed that the military cancelled the deployment because it couldn’t authenticate the president’s citizenship—Hayworth showed no signs of skepticism whatsoever.

Isn’t this difficult for you to say, I’ll continue to bring cases that could conceivably undermine national security? Or is the shoe on the other foot with Sec. Gates and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, with their unwillingness to go into court, to be involved in discovery, to really deal with the eligibility of the commander-in-chief?


Hayworth sounded stunned that Cook’s deployment had been cancelled, “rather than the Department of Defense taking up and saying, well, here is the eligibility of the commander.” Like Sean Hannity, he opted for Taitz’s version of the story over CentCom’s, telling listeners that the result “certainly could be characterized as a victory for Maj. Cook and Dr. Orly Taitz.” And he closed the interview by sympathetically asking Taitz if she feared “an atmosphere of intimidation” coming at her from the White House.

4. Former Congressman J.D. Hayworth - the "former" part is always a beautiful thing to read
By the way, why can't he get a real job and become a productive member of society, instead of sitting on his ass all day long and spouting over the airwaves whatever comes into his small, psychotic mind the same way he did in Congress?

16. He and Sarah Palin will probably co-host a show on Faux News one day
That's what usually happens to washed-up neo-clowns.

11. What lucky Arizona District got rid of
him in 2006?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arizona's_5th_congressional_district

"In Arizona's 5th district, six-term GOP incumbent Rep. J.D. Hayworth actually switched positions on immigration from being a sponsor of guest worker legislation to becoming one of the most outspoken opponents of immigration, even advocating a moratorium on legal immigration from Mexico. In 2004, Hayworth received almost as many Hispanic votes as his Democrat opponent, with each receiving about 48 percent; but in 2006, Hayworth lost 59-36 percent in Hispanic precincts."

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/frank-sharry/gop-tries-out-old-extremi_b_206510.html

Rep Harry Mitchell beat him in Phoenix, Scottsdale, and Tempe..the 5th District AZ.
