Will Jones and Davis Pass the Hat to Help Pay Their Lawyer's Fines?

Orly Taitz, who represented Reps. Tim Jones and Cynthia Davis in their federal birther suit, has been ordered to pay $20,000 in sanctions for filing frivolous actions in a similar, but separate, lawsuit.

Jones has refused to comment publicly about his role in the lawsuit with Taitz, Davis and others, but Davis has proudly stood by her conspiracy theories.  Rep. Casey Guernsey signed on to help Taitz at one point as well. 

At one point last year, Davis traveled to California to meet with Taitz, and later blamed much of the controversy surrounding their crusade on Orly's accent.  In July, Davis, Ed Emery and an aide to State Sen. Jim Lembke met with Taitz at rallies in St. Charles and Jefferson City.
