Yes , since no other judge would touch this stink bomb , the resorted to a retired judge who was appointed by her daddy . The smell is getting stronger by the hour .

Retired judges often serve as “senior” judges after retirement, even in federal courts.

A mark of a corrupt, tyrannical regime is when the regime personnel apply laws to their opponents but not to their allies. Anti-Soviet, er, Obama thought soon to be a felony. Anti-Bush thought to be rewarded.

I never thought I’d see the day the USA was so corrupt as it is now.

[TASMANIANRED]

Claim the Obama exemption.

[jarofants]

All I got to say is WTF?

[Road Warrior ‘04]

Very late to the fray! Spent the day and evening with a bunch of Florida Freepers! What a bunch!!!!

Now that this judge has ruled that Miller "must" show his records, is there a judge or the same "retired" judge, that will rule that Bowrama "must" show his birth certificate and other pertinent records? This ruling could very well work in our favor.....

[ExTexasRedhead]

This needs to be shouted out loud to the voters in Alaska. Do they want to re-elect slime/sore loser Lisa to represent them?

[FrankR]

Well, that sucks.

Is that just in the capacity of a consultant, or can they make binding rulings?

Burbank: "the bulk of his practice was personal injury law.."

There you go, a John Edwards-type lawyer, a bloodsucking ambulance-chaser in bed with Barack Obama, the patron saint of ambulance-chasers..

In an unusual Saturday hearing, retired Superior Court Judge Winston Burbank ruled that the public's right to know about candidates outweighed Miller's right to privacy.

I'll tell you what - there better be a law on the books in Alaska stating that the public has a right to know private stuff about candidates, because, otherwise, this is just another example of a judge who has forgotten that it is his job and duty to apply the LAW, not whatever whimsical fantasy he has making his leg tingle. I'm sick of these judges pulling policy out of their rear ends and acting as if the public needs to treat it like the Word of God. If it ain't in the law, then it is none of the judge's damn business.

"Looks like the Alaska cabal is doing to Miller what they did to Palin in 2008

Same playbook.

Remember that the "Trooper firing" investigation was headed by a guy who just happened to be the head of the Obama campaign in Alaska.

And the lovely American Press Corps had no curiousity about this sitauation at all.

Judges of the Left’s “living constitution” are now fixing elections for Democrats. We are in deep trouble.

[SaraJohnson]

Miller should be able to appeal and delay this decision until after the election. Depends if he is a real Republican or a Rino.

[Art in Idaho]

Hey Obama, get your damn operatives away from Miller, and ugh, er, while you're at it, Free Up your Long Form Birth Certificate and your other bonafides. Some day they'll all come to light. I bet you can't wait. I can. . . looking forward to it. .

"District Court Judge Winston Burbank plans to retire in August 2009 to join the board of directors of the U.S. Figure Skating Association.”

Which is located in Colorado (2 blocks NW of the Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs, to be precise).

[Art in Idaho]

This explains a helluva lot about why we’re up against what we’re up against.....

Well said. It's Tyranny. This election is just our first step in Revolution II. If we don't keep up the momentum, it may be our last election.

[Lou Budvis]

This is how that they got Ryan out of 0bama’s way in the US-Sen race.

[EDINVA]

Retired/Senior judges tend to sit on less complex, less time-consuming cases. And this judge doesn’t seem to have spent that much time coming to this ruling (yes, they can make rulings ... then it’s off to the appellate level).

Funny thing, it’s the exact opposite of reasoning of the judge in the Lakin court martial case who said Lakin couldn’t have the discovery he wants because it could be embarrassing to the POTUS.

I can see this being overturned because personnel records, like medical records, have become sacrosanct.

[Enchante]

"This ruling could very well work in our favor....."

uh, you might want to re-think that one.... do you really expect that the Mediascum and the Demagogues believe in honesty, reciprocity, and fairness?

[FrankR]

Thanks for enlightening me on this process...interesting.
