"This judge was known to be a biased liberal.

A former Georgia Republican state senator from a conservative district was "known to be a biased liberal"? Do you have any evidence for that?

Evidently he only took the case so he could put Orly Taitz on notice."

Evidently, you haven't a clue how cases are assigned in federal district court. This judge didn't "take" anything. It was assigned to him, probably randomly - although the chief district judge can assert some discretion when assigning cases, perhaps based on existing case load or a specific talent or area expertise that a particular district judge may possess. In this case, I haven't seen anything to suggest that the assignment wasn't entirely random. Again, if you have contrary evidence, please supply it.

“I haven’t seen anything to suggest that the assignment wasn’t entirely random. Again, if you have contrary evidence, please supply it.”

Judge Land Presided over MAJ Cook’s hearing and was also dismissed.

Sorry, when I said that Judge Land “took” the case I didn’t mean that this was rigged. And I see that he was a Republican politician. But his record on the cases I have seen, including the earlier military case, does not suggest that he is particularly “conservative.”

More likely he is an opportunist, from what little I know of him, mostly from reading his various comments and opinions on these two cases.

These two cases raised a legitimat issue. And evidently someone thought so, or the earlier deployment would not have been cancelled, rendering the issue moot. And this officer’s commander would not have forbidden her to leave her post to attend the court. And the Defense Department would not have threatened to cancel its contracts if the employer of the first guy refused to fire him.

Although the judge yesterday accused Orly Taitz of making PR speeches, all she said was that it was only reasonable to ask the Obama prove his legitimacy by producing the necessary proofs that he is constitutionally qualified to be president. That is certainly reasonable. Nor did the judge have any reason to believe that her Kenyan BC was a fake.

The difference between a legitimate soldier and a pirate or bandit, according to recognized international law for at least 2000 years, is that the soldier is legitimated by legitimate authorities. So, if Obama is not legitimate, our troops have no legitimate excuse to be fighting wars, and would be vulnerable to international courts. Therefore they have a right to ask that Obama prove he is legitimate, since there are very reasonable doubts that he is.
