The point is that you introduced a phantom expert and then backed out when you are asked to identify who the expert was. I’m not contesting whatever claim you were making, just that you were hiding behind someone who couldn’t be vetted.
I wasn’t hiding behind anyone. I didn’t introduce a phantom expert. I didn’t back out of any statement I made.
I was asked why not just produce the birth certificate. I said I had the same question myself and so asked a lawyer who told me that one has to provide a defense or be subject to a default judgment. I didn’t offer his opinion as expert testimony.
patlin implied that I had asked a liberal lawyer who would agree with me. I responded that the attorney was not liberal that he was a federal judge in Dallas who was very conservative.
patlin wanted a name, which I refused to provide as it would put that federal judge in the middle of the birther controversy and although I didn’t say it, it would also cause problems between my mother and her judge whom she has worked for for 30+ years.
That judge’s opinion is hardly expert testimony. It’s commone sense and can be demonstrated by the simple act of not responding to a speeding ticket.
Your accusation is unwarranted.
