10 A. Why not?

11 Q. What caused you to look up any situation with

12 regard to my kids?

l3 MR. KRESS: I object to the form.

14 You can answer.

15 THE WITNESS: It was just one of the things that

16 happened to pop up.

22 A. You addressed me as Ms. Taitz.

3 Watch and its directors. Correct?

4 A. Yes.

5 Q. And you knew that we were adverse to each

6 other. Correct?

7 MR. KRESS: I object to the form.

8 You can answer.

9 THE WITNESS: Yes.

5 A. No.

6 Q. Why is it, then, that you gave this

7 information to Ms. Taitz?

8 MR. KRESS: I obj ect to the form. Asked and

9 answered.

10 You can answer it one more time.

11 THE WITNESS: Well, I had an expectation of

12 privacy with Ms. Taitz. And, in fact, she said that

13 she was going to call me the next morning, and I've

14 never heard from her since. Well, except for when I

15 invited her to speak at UROe.

16 BY JVIR. KLAYMAN:

17 Q. And why did you have an expectation of

18 privacy?

19 A. Because the conversation was between she and

20 myself, and there weren't any other people around.

21 Q. But that doesn't answer the question.

22 Why did you give her the information, apart

23 from expectations of privacy?

7 Immigration Reform in Garden Grove, California.

8 Orly Taitz was one of the speakers at the meeting.

9 I am familiar with Orly Taitz. Ms. Taitz is a

10 California resident who was, at the time, running on

11 the primary ballot for one of the California seats on

12 the United States Senate.

13 "After the meeting, I was seated at an

14 information table for Judicial Watch, displaying

15 various forms of Judicial Watch literature. Orly Taitz

16 approached me and we discussed a number of issues.

17 We eventually discussed Larry Klayman. The only

18 information that I conveyed to Ms. Taitz about Larry

19 Klayman was information that I had learned from public

20 records, including information related to court

21 proceedings for failure to pay child support."

1 In fact, you didn't know one way or the other

2 whether Orly Taitz would restate your comments --

3 A. I had no --

4 Q. -- to anyone else or the public, did you?

5 A. I had no way of knowing whether she would.

6 And I never gave her permission to restate my comments

7 to any other person or entity.

8 Q. But you never told her not to. Correct?

9 A. I thought that that was understood.

10 Q. You are aware that Orly Taitz communicates

11 with the public on the Internet?

12 A. I do now.

13 Q. And you are aware that she communicates in

14 public by either giving speeches like she gave at the

18 A. She gave her candidacy for U.S. Senator. And

19 Robert Lauten was there and another candidate who gave

20 his statements for running for Barbara Boxer's seat.

21 Q. So you are aware that Orly Taitz's activities

22 as a U.S. senator candidate requires her to communicate

3 posting that she was invited by UROC and not 'The

15 A. (Nods head in the affirmative.)

1 Correct?

2 MR. KRESS: I object to the form.

3 THE WITNESS: Correct.

4 MR. KRESS: But you can answer it. That's fine.

5 THE WITNESS: She had only known me as Judicial

6 Watch. And the fact that -- you know, because that's

7 the way I had introduced myself. And so when I called

8 her on the phone, which was around 8:42 p.m., she was

9 still at her office doing work. And I called her on

10 her cell phone and asked her if she would speak at

11 UROC.

12 And because of Ms. Taitz's heavy accent --

13 well, it's not a heavy accent, but it's an accent.

14 She was just confused about the -- the UROC. I mean,

15 I don't know when this woman ever sleeps. So that's

16 why she said that.

17 But she -- and I said -- and I told her

18 United Republicans of California. She got confused and

19 put in there Republicans United. So I called her and

20 asked her to correct it. And I think she did.

21 BY MR. KLAYMAN :

22 Q. But you never called her, as you testified,

23 to ask her to correct anything she wrote about me,

24 did you?

25 A. No.

5 calling her to ask her to correct the statements with

6 regards to Larry Klayman that are at issue here, do

18 to when I first met her when she was running for

19 Secretary of State, how she had been to visit all of

20 the Secretaries of State and all -- in the union, and

21 I didn't know anyone else who did that.

5 taking the time to get out there to gather the correct

7 Q. So you didn't think it was that important that

8 she allegedly misquoted you, you just wanted her to

9 speak?

10 MR. KRESS: Objection to the form.

9 You are aware of that?

6 "convicted" as opposed to "indicted." Correct?

DECLARATION UNDER PENALTY OF PERJURY OF CONSTANCE S. RUFFLEY

STATE OF CALIFORNIA ) )

COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES )

CONSTANCE S. RUFFLEY, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §1746, makes the following declaration

under the penalty of perjury:

1. I am over the age of eighteen (18) and I am capable of making this affidavit.

2. I have personal knowledge of the following facts and, if called upon as a witness,

could testify competently thereto.

3. I am a resident of the State of California.

4. I am employed as the Office Administrator for Judicial Watch, Inc. 's Western

Regional Headquarters in San Marino California.

5. It is my understanding that Larry Klayman has sued me, Judicial Watch, Inc., and

maliciously and/or willfully published and furthered the publication of a false statement that Plaintiff

Klayman had been 'convicted' of a crime for not paying a large amount of child support with regard

to his children, on the internet and elsewhere within this judicial district, Florida, and elsewhere

throughout the United States and the world."

6. I deny Klayman's claims and I deny that I am liable on Klayman's claims for

defamation, defamation by implication, tortious interference with a contract, and intentional

infliction of emotional distress.

7. On or about February 22,2012, I attended the monthly meeting of the California

Coalition for Immigration Reform in Garden Grove, California. Orly Taitz was one of the speakers

at the meeting. I am familiar with Orly Taitz. Ms. Taitz is a California resident who was, at the

time, running on the primary ballot for one of the California seats on the United States Senate. After

the meeting, I was seated at an information table for Judicial Watch, displaying various forms of

Judicial Watch literature. Orly Taitz approached me and we discussed a number of issues. We

eventually discussed Larry Klayman. The only information that I conveyed to Ms. Taitz about Larry

Klayman was information that I had learned from public records, including information related to

court proceedings for failure to pay child support. I do not recall stating that Mr. Klayman had been

convicted for the crime offailure to pay child support. This was the only discussion that I had with

Ms. Taitz regarding Larry Klayman.

8. My expectation was that Orly Taitz would not restate my comments to any other

person or entity. I never gave Orly Taitz permission to restate my comments to any other person or

entity. I did not expect or anticipate that OrIy Taitz would restate my comments on her website or in

any other format. I expected that Orly Taitz would keep my comments to herself and only use the

comments to conduct her own research into the publicly-available information related to Larry

name is Constance RuftJey and she is an office administrator fur the Judicial Watch in their Western Regional Headquarters at 2540 Huntington Dr., San Marino. She told me, that she used to work fur the FBI and that she worked fur the Judicial Watch for many years. She actually initiated the discussion about Larry Klayman and told me that she heard that he is involved in birther cases. I told her that this group, article2superpac was soliciting money, that they sent an e-mail and posted on their site an advertisement on February 10, asking for $25,000, claiming that they need to raise $25,000 in 96 hours, as the cases in Florida and Califumia need to be filed within a week. I told her, that it was a hard sell, they wrote it is now or never, saying finally Obarna's team met their match, dis sing 4 years ofmy tireless work in the process, and in the end nothing was filed by Larry Klayman. It is not clear what happened to all of the money that was raised, who got it.

Ms. Ruffiey actually advised me that Larry Klayman is not licensed in California, she told me that he no longer works with the Judicial Watch and that donors should know about litigation in Ohio, where he was convicted just recentlty of not paying large amount in child support. She provided a lot of other infonnation I will publish only, what is a public record. I am not publishing anything, that is not in public record.

A number of individuals sent me this information:

Larry Klayman, 60, of Los Angeles, Califurnia, was indicted on two (2) counts of criminal non-support. He owes $78,861.76 for his two children ages 11 and 14. Two hearings were held in Domestic Relations Court between 2009 and 2010. The last voluntary payment was made on August 30, 2011, in the amount of$I,014.26. Arraignment is scheduled for February 7, 2012.

FWIW, you might want to read this suit (below) filed against Kayman ... from the time this suit was filed against Klayman (2007), he has not honored his promise to pay back what the court ordered, even though it was nowhere near the $25,000 he was trusted with. I would be worried too, if I had donated money to this man.

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF FLORIDA THE FLORIDA BAR, Supreme Court Case No. Complainant,vs. No. 2011-70,621(IIA)

LARRY ELLIOT KLAYMAN, Respondent. COMPLAINT

3. On or about November 11,2007, Natalia Humm ("Humm') filed a grievance against Respondent (Larry Klayman) alleging that he had had fuiled to provide services in her criminal case after she paid him a $25,000 retainer.

Yesterday I got an e-mail from Pamela Barnett titled: "Larry Klayman did not get nearly his retainer". When Barnett wrote that Klayman did not get nearly his retainer, it means, that he got something. Barnett did not disclose, what did he get. What does it mean? According to the solicitation by a pack ofbloggers in this article2Superpac, all of these bloggers were heavily soliciting a total of$25,000. Nobody knows, how much did they actually raise. Additiona1ly, Barnett claims, that she and George Miller are no longer connected with the article2superpac, however the Article2superpac and solicitation fur donations fur article2superpac is located at the top of the blog, ObamaBallotChallenge which is administered by Barnett and Miller. The link

http://www.art2superpac.com/floridaballot.html shows the actual article. The PDF and screenshot are at the top of the page.

"Not nearly his retainer" can be $15,000 out of$25,000, it can be$1 0,000. Bottom line, nobody knows, how much Klayman actually got. The question is, why was he paid anything, ifhe did not file the law suits, as he was supposed to?

Later I got an e-mail from Tony Dolz, who is not on the board of the Article2Superpac, but who is in contact with a mnnber of the board members of this PAC, who stated, that he had a discussion with George Miller, who is on the board of the Article2superpac, who runs a blog ObamaBallotChaIlenge together with Barnett. According to Dolz, Miller stated, that Klayman was not paid anything.

The question is: who is lying? Was Klayman paid or not? Ifhe was paid, than he needs to refund the donors, as he did not file law suits as he was supposed to. If the bloggers raised money and did not pay Klayman, the bloggers need to refund the money to the donors. The press release, that was issued by Article2Superpac on February 10, 2012 clearly stated, that the donors are asked to donate $25,000 to pay Larry Klayman, that they have 96 hours to raise this large sum of money. The article also stated that the law suits are supposed to be filed within 1 week. It is now or never(see the article above). So, there were clear parameters: this pack ofbloggers was soliciting from the public a large sum of money specitica1ly to pay attorney Larry Klayman: $25,000 to file 2 law suits in FL and CA within a week, by February 17,2012. Those law suits were never filed and the public should be refunded all of the money that was donated for this specific purpose. All of the bloggers, who ran this solicitation, need to provide accounting fur the public, how much money did they raise in total and where did this money go. Actually, donors can report this to their District Attorneys. If the public donated fur specitic purpose and did not get the benefit, the public was defrauded and this is a criminal matter. People went to prison fur things like that.

There are 5 board members of this Article2superpac:

1. Helen Tansey-blogger, president of the Article2SuperPAC

2. Gany Wihnott, blogger GiveUSLiberty1776

3. Bob Nelson-blogger, runs ORYR (ObamaReleaseYourRecords) or BirtherReport (I got infurmation, that Bob nelson might be a pseudonym fur richard Garoutte, but I am not sure).

4. George Miller runs blog ObamaBallotChallenge together with Pamela Barnett (another supporter stated, that Pamela Barnett is on the board instead of George Miller, I am not sure about that)

5. Kevin Powell, a cameraman, I don't know, what blog does he run

Additionally several other bloggers were nmning solicitation of this Article@superpac on their blogs, among them

Dean Haskins, blogger "BirtherSummit"

Sam Sewell blogger 'steady drip", Charles Kerchner and a few others.

All of these people are supposed to refund the public all of the money, that they raised fur these law suits that were supposed to be filed by Larry Klayman by the February 17, 2012 deadline, as those law suits were never filed. 1be public never got the benefit of the what they paid fur.

1bis is the reason, why I stated before, that if you want to donate to the work of a specific attorney, donate directly and you know, where the money is going. When you donate to a gang ofbloggers, claiming that the money is going to attorneys fur legal expenses, you have no idea where the donations are going.

1. Bloodless Coup February 23rd, 2012 @ 7:20 am

I was intia1ly excited about Larry Klayman, and helped the news about him to go viral Now I am wondering about him and what his true motives might be.

2. Florence Stone February 23rd, 2012 @ 2:51 pm

I srnelled a rat from the get-go. Asking for $25,000 fur 2 lawsuits sounded way out of the ballpark to me, so I did not bite. Seemed like an attempt to scam money on the backs of people wanting to expose Obama, and nothing more. Glad Orly stays on top of things like this for us. WHERE DOES SHE FIND TIfE TIME?? Talk about multi-tasking, I think Orly is the Queen of that as well!

February 27th, 2012 @ 6:54 am

Obama's administration is doing the same to Orly as they did (and are still doing) to Dr Judy Wood regarding "Where did the Towers Go". 1bey slide a sM into "leading honest intention" down a hill and into the forrest and away from the main target. Dr Orly Taitz is the finest there is!

Larry E. Klayman, Esquire 2020 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Suite 345 Washington, DC 20006

Richard W. Driscoll' Direct: 703.879.2601 [email protected] 'Admitted in VA, DC and MD

Re: Putative Claim for defamation. etc.

Dear Mr. Klayman:

This firm represents Judicial Watch, Inc. relating to the above-referenced matter.

Through a series of emails and again during our conversation on Tuesday, February 28, 2012, you advanced vague and unsupported allegations that Judicial Watch, its President Thomas Fitton and an employee are participants in a conspiracy to defame and disparage you based on the recent indictment handed down in Ohio. To date, you have produced no evidence to support these truly outrageous allegations.

As I stated to you during our conversation, Judicial Watch did not authorize, make, or participate in making, any statements regarding your indictment for criminal non­support. For this reason, it is not necessary for Judicial Watch to take any action to clarify or correct the statements of others.

Sincerely,

DRISCOLL & SELTZER, PLLC

Richard W. Driscoll

We've had a couple of inquiries about this posting. Can you make dear to Ms. Taitz or whomever is responsible for the posting that she was invited by UROe and not "the Judicial watch.!' The also needs to be corrected to avoid any

Orly, I resend my earlier email to judicial Watch as per your efforts and presenting them to 'Judicial Watch'. Honestly, from knowing and learning about Judicial Watch over time, I conclude that; they seek donations, they take on 'small battles', Le, avoid 'larger issues', all with intent to support their 'Watchdog Image' to attract more donations, in other words, their actions care only for donations and not justice as per our US Constitution, as opposed to you and you case and subject matter investigative endeavors, as you care always to seek justice upon a matter. At your website you have posted that "Judicial Watch" has asked you to appear at its "Republicans United Event in CAli. Undertake this offer. POSSibly, your appearance will create a "Legal Spine", a devotional caring for truth in Judicial Watch, for as to date. as per the issues that you address, this organization does not have this, especially with regard to larger issues. Sincerely, larry Driscoll

Tom Fitton and Judicial Watch,

I forward to you my attachment "Citizen Submital letter re Criminal Berack Obama" sent to my Arizona First District Representative Paul Gosar at his Washington, DC. Office and to others cc'd as you will review.

I have asked you, Tom Fitton and your organization Judicial Watch, before that you would align your legal knowledge and support of Attorney Taitz's endeavors, with common goal of allegience, to remove THE CRIMINAL BARACK OBAMA

News at World Net Daily, Letters at Wond Net Daily, Joseph Farah, David Kupelian,

I attach to this email my "Citizen Submittal Letter regarding Criminal Sa rack Obama" which as you see in original postal mail form was sent to my Arizona First District Representative Paul Gosar at his Washington, DC office, with ce, copies sent to Attorney Taitz, Arizona Sheriff Arpaio, Washington Times Columnist, Kuhner and House Speaker Boehner.

Next, Mitt Romney and Mitt Romney for PreSident, Donald Trump, Fox news manager and fox news tips, Jonathan Paton, my new to be Representative in AZ to be, and Chelsea Schilling of WND were email sent same letter.

I ask that WND constantly attend to, and announce to the public via its internet webSite, that not only is Barack Obama a "Liar and Deceiver" in his daily conduct and actions from before 2008 to the present, that even worse, is the fact that, Barack Obama is, 'most and more importantly' to be noted, addressed and described, not as a "Presidenf', but as a CRIMINAL", as per all of of the previous lieing and deceiving actions and deeds carried out by him against the American Citizen voting public with regard to his stolen Social Security Number and his fraudulent Selective Service Registration Card which carries a fraudulent Postal Indicia.

Klayman is at it againl Read if you're interested. The truly disturbing thing, however, is that the judge DID refer to a fictitious movie to make his ruling!!

Holy crap! Do these people running our country have no brains? Quoting the fictitious judge from the movie "Miracle on 54th Street" no less. I think the scarecrow from Wizard of Oz has more brains than these jokers!
