Orly, Every time I look at Judge Land's intellectually-dishonest and morally-bankrupt TRO denial issued on Sept 16, 2009, my blood boils in disbelief, anger and disgust!
His TRO denial reads more like an editorial from a second-year agenda-driven Berkley law student, than a TRO holding great national importance issued by seasoned district judge – a judge who swore an oath to be even-handed and unbiased.
In his TRO denial, Judge Land deferred to the military chain-of-command, which is obviously powerless and unwilling to “trust but verify” their own CinC, as Capt Rhodes is compelled to do. And to brush away the fact that her supervisor, Col Johnson, willfully and flagrantly interfered with Judge Land's order for Capt Land to appear before his bench on Sept. 11, 2009, simply reaffirms that tampering with either witness or Plaintiff is of nil importance in his kangaroo sham of a courtroom.
Furthermore, Judge Land is hopelessly flawed in his rationale that a Democrat-controlled Congress will intervene on this issue. Does the good judge not pick up a newspaper? He is ill-informed on the specifics of President Obama’s Electoral Count on Jan. 8, 2009, when former Vice President Dick Cheney was negligent in the US Senate chamber by NOT calling for written or oral objection, as is required by 3 USC Sec. 15.
To have Judge Land question your “modus operandi” (how utterly ironic) in such an intellectually-vapid manner smacks of Judicial Malpractice.
Then to insinuate that Capt Rhodes filed her TRO simply as a means to play hooky from her deployment – to recklessly force another officer “who does not resort to frivolous litigation” to take Capt Rhodes’ deployment slot – is repugnant and insulting to me as a veteran and as an American. What a despicable way to treat a soldier who protects Judge Land’s freedom to pontificate from the bench!
In my view, Judge Land is soulless and rotten to the core, firmly planted in President Obama’s pocket to not even consider listening – with an open mind – to the merits of this case and the impact this issue has on the United States of America, its military men and women, and the Constitution they defend. In fact, by the looks of his order, it most certainly appears he and his staff prepared the TRO denial – in its entirety – days if not weeks before your court appearance on Sept. 11, 2009. That is, unless the TRO denial was prepared for them by the Justice Department on high, a complicit arm of President Obama’s Executive Branch!
Shame on you, Judge Land. SHAME ON YOU!
