I knew it had got screwy in New Hampshire when the Birthers threw their tantrums...

But I had no idea it got this bad.

Both Accornero (Laconia) and DeLemus (Rochester) are birthers, and apparently fans of “Birther Queen” Orly Taitz. So when Taitz appeared before the New Hampshire Ballot Law Commission in 2011 to call for the removal of President Obama from the state’s presidential ballot, she was vocally supported by Accornero, who referenced the “overwhelming” evidence against Obama being a natural born citizen (no he didn’t provide it). When Taitz’s complaint was unanimously dismissed, Accornero went ballistic and stormed out while calling out to the commission: “Why don’t you rip up the Constitution and throw it out?” and “you all should be accused of treason, and we’ll get people to do that.” DeLemus, meanwhile, repeatedly berated Assistant Attorney General Matt Mavrogeorge for his decision. In the end Mavrogeorge and Assistant Secretary of State Karen Ladd had to lock themselves in an office “out of [apparently justified] fear for their safety due to the aggressive behavior of the crowd that included several legislators.” Footage here.

Was "camp commander" at the Bundy ranch fiasco and just lost an election up here. He was running for "constitutional sheriff".
