Army Captain Asks Judge To Reconsider; Orly Taitz involved

Capt. Connie Rhodes asks for Judge Clay Land to reconsider; attorney Orly Taitz involved
BY ALAN RIQUELMY - [e-mail]


Army Capt. Connie Rhodes, who unsuccessfully petitioned a federal court to stop her deployment to Iraq by arguing President Barack Obama can’t legitimately hold the office, has asked U.S. District Court Judge Clay Land to reconsider his Wednesday ruling.

The emergency request for stay of deployment and request to amend the judgement was filed Thursday on behalf of Rhodes by attorney Orly Taitz — a national figure in the “birther” movement.

In her Sept. 4 complaint, Rhodes argued that some facts point to Obama not being naturalized or possibly an illegal immigrant. She said she couldn’t be lawfully compelled to obey a de facto president’s orders.

In a Wednesday order Taitz called “sarcastic” and “biting,” Land denied Rhodes’ request and told Taitz she would face sanctions if she ever again filed in his court a similar frivolous action.

“Plaintiff avers that there is increasing evidence that the United State District Courts in the 11th Circuit are subject to the same illegitimate chain of command which plaintiff has previously protested in this case...” Rhodes’ Thursday filing states.

Rhodes claims in her Thursday filing that Land denied her Fifth Amendment right to due process of law by not letting her file a response to the government’s motion to dismiss. Also, Rhodes had no meaningful access to the courts because Land’s ruling didn’t address any of her arguments, the request states.

In his ruling, Land said Rhodes had no credible evidence and made no reliable factual allegations that would support her unsubstantiated claims that Obama can’t serve as president. Instead, Rhodes used her complaint for political rhetoric and to call Obama “an illegal usurper” and “unlawful pretender,” the judge writes.

1. She doesn't want to serve - good, give her a dishonorable discharge

Take away her rank, her pension, her pay, her VA benefits and kick her out of the army.

Good Riddance to anyone that stupid to buy into this birther shit.

[Brother Buzz]

6. Just as soon as she reimburses the military for two paid years of medical school

Perhaps she can work off her debt in a military prison dispensary. Can you say bedpans?

[sarge43]

8. Nah. That would make her a martyr.

She's deserving of the Number.

Reassignment to Fort Not the End of the Earth, But You can see It from Here. Nearest US civil court is on the other side of the planet. One med off slot, so she's on her own with all the bs that comes with it -- mainly paper work. "Ma'am, a request for band aids requires DD Forms 1234, 666, 9999 in trip by commander, pending approval from Hq." (which BTW is also on the other side of the planet). She'll have one, maybe two, corpsmen -- SSgt Figmo (fuck it, got my orders) and Pvt Slackass who hasn't broken a sweat since basic. Word was sent ahead of her that she's an asshole and troublemaker so it's a career killer if you sign up for her fan club. If she's boozing at the O Club, she's by herself. At the mess she alwasys has a table to herself. Official word is she's billeted by herself because she's a med off -- official word that is.

12 months of the Number either brings Fuckup to Jesus or s/he puts in resignation.

"We can't make you do a thing. We can make you wish you had."

[Champion Jack]

11. Yeah!

[blondeatlast]

34. Dead. On. Perfect.

Let it be, oh, Powers That Be.

Perfect.

[sarge43]

44. The best way to deal with shit stirrers like her is drop them off the

end of the earth -- isolation and oblivion. They want attention, good or bad.

[LiberalAndProud]

20. All that and make her pay for her own education.

She's reneging on the deal. I want my tax dollars back.

[Rick Myers]

2. The CRAZY is strong in this one!!!

Oily's not going to stop. Not ever... She is insane. This Army captain is not doing herself any favors further annoying this judge...

She was asked if she'd deploy if told by GW Bush and said yes. Asked if she'd deploy if ordered by McCain, she said she'd go...

I'll be happy when she is either in Iraq or a jail cell.

[damntexdem]

4. So, will Oily Taints file the motion for reconsideration?

And will the judge sanction her as she deserves?

[YOY]

3. Orly...just go the fuck back to Russia.

Really. You obviously don't quite get it.

[LynneSin]

30. Moldavia, not Russia

I suspect Russia doesn't want her

[YOY]

38. The most miserable country in Eastern Europe.

The Peace Corps attrition rate in Moldova was higher than any other when I was in.

It's just a horribly depressing place.

[TexasObserver]

5. “Plaintiff avers that ... the United State District Courts... are subject to the same illegitimate"

Oh, boy!

Oily and her dumb ass client are about to find out what the judge's order about not filing that lame ass stuff really means. That Oily and the Captain cannot fathom why they are breaching the court's order only makes it more fun to watch.

Train wreck!!

I predict he'll hit them both with some monetary sanction and give them another stern warning.

[Hepburn]

14. Boy....

...under NO circumstances of any nature would I have even maybe considered doing anything like that to a feddie judge.

Talk about throwing a match into a vat of gasoline....!!!!

[TexasObserver]

17. "Judge, you're a cog in the wheel of this illegality!"

How not to win an argument.

You can tell a judge they are mistaken about the law or misinformed about the facts. You cannot tell them they're crooked.

They'll both be sanctioned for this. It may just be a scolding, but I suspect they'll pay costs and maybe some attorneys fees.

[Cha]

24. How about Contempt of Court and

throw their idiotselves in jail?

[bluestateguy]

7. Court martial this bitch

And yes she is a bitch, and I will not take it back to be politically correct.

[TexasObserver]

9. k&r

[PetrusMonsFormicarum]

10. Captain Rhodes should

shoot herself in the foot to get out of her deployment, like everybody else.

For all the fuss she's caused, I wouldn't want to be her when she does finally deploy. Her COs are going to roast her alive.

What a pair of dipshits.

[SeattleVet]

22. She *did* essentially shoot herself in the foot...

when she decided that becoming a part of a crackpot case being run by a crackpot 'lawyer'. She couldn't have chosen to put an end to whatever will be left of her military career in a more spectacular fashion.

If there is ANY justice left in this world, she will, at an absolute minimum, be on the hook for the last 2 years of med school that we paid for.

[quiet.american]

12. Couldn't help but think of this whole thing while watching "My Cousin Vinny" yesterday. nt

[Brother Buzz]

25. Vinny got off to a rough start, but to his credit, he was a quick study

Taitz, on the other hand, isn't doing as well. Her learning curve is a flat line.

[quiet.american]

27. No argument there! :) nt

[TorchTheWitch]

40. Flatline? More like downward spiral n/t

[Brother Buzz]

41. That would imply her learning curve gained some altitude at some point in time.

I beg to differ. Speaking of downward spiral, her legal career has most certainly augered in. That's a fact, Jack.

Short and sweet:

[Hepburn]

13. OMFG....

...a mx to reconsider????

GMAFB...those are based on evidence which the moving party could not have discovered at the time of the filing/heaing of the motion which was denied.

I am totally amazed...

I hope to hell Orly gets sanctioned...big time. Anything $1,000 and over against an atty who belongs to the CalBar has to be reported to the bar.

Wow....I am just absolutely amazed at what she filed with the court... talk about spitting in a feddie judge's face!

OMFG....!!!!

[cali]

15. I can't wait until the unsavory little fuck is disbarred.

[Hepburn]

16. I am hoping it is an open State Bar trial....

...I will go and report back to the DU.

She is a total fuck up to the max. You and me both agree on the sentiment on seeing her get disbarred.

PS: I hope to hell she is a better DDS than she is an atty!

[LiberalAndProud]

21. I am told that she became an attorney because she is a lousy DDS

She has a long list of dental malpractice actions against her. Some people just don't have talent for anything. Orly, on the other hand, has a talent for making really big messes.

[LynneSin]

31. Let's hope she got her Dental degree from a real school and not mail order...

like her Law Degree

[blondeatlast]

35. Oh, I would so pay to be there. nt

[bridgit]

18. Tort reform? Great idea! Start with Orly Taitz

[beac]

19. How did this dipshyte get through medical school????

Talk about teh burning stupid. Oy.

[blink44]

28. re:

She is an intelligent person. She just wants to avoid being deployed. Im waiting to see
if she will refuse to go. I think that will depend on if she believes the military will either (a) give her a dishonorable discharge only......or (b) subject her to jail time. If its only the discharge, I think she would opt for that. If its jail, I think she would rather be deployed. Im merely speculating. I have not spoke to her regarding this. But, I know her well.

[beac]

29. An "intelligent" person would NEVER a) believe the birther nonsense and b) pick Orly Taitz

as a lawyer.

You may "know her well" but your assessment of her intellect does not do much for my assessment of yours.

[LynneSin]

32. OMG you're fricking kidding me right. She is a dipshit!

First, she's not the first military person who is not keen serving in Iraq and/or Afghanistan. Let's face it, not the safest place to be right now. There were thousands of people in the military not keen on heading over there and that started way back in the Bush administration.

So she doesn't want to go to Iraq, the line forms to the left for that group. But working with this hack who got her law school degree from a mail order catalog is probably the most stupid thing one could do. And from what I can tell this military Captain is just shooting herself in the foot.

[blondeatlast]

37. With all due respect, your friend is an idiot and I resent paying for her last 2 years of med school

And this paralegal wants to be there when her lawyer gets disbarred.

[NightHawk63]

23. Now...a rightwinger wants a judge to have EMPATHY!!!

Screw 'em!!!

[onager]

26. Man, that new filing is just Full O' Win!

So, after being warned by a Federal judge not to bring their barratrous bullshit back into court...

“Plaintiff avers that there is increasing evidence that the United State District Courts in the 11th Circuit are subject to the same illegitimate chain of command which plaintiff has previously protested in this case...” Rhodes’ Thursday filing states.

They charge right back in and double the bet. By claiming the judge...and apparently the entire 11th Circuit, along with the military chain of command...are somehow illegitimate.

Jebus. Have they started screaming about "admiralty flags in the courtroom" yet? That was popular back in the 90's, when crackpot militias were challenging Federal authority.

Rhodes claims in her Thursday filing that Land denied her Fifth Amendment right to due process of law by not letting her file a response to the government’s motion to dismiss. Also, Rhodes had no meaningful access to the courts because Land’s ruling didn’t address any of her arguments, the request states.

Because those arguments have already been settled...i.e., THROWN THE FUCK OUT OF...every Federal court where they have been raised.

In his ruling, Land said Rhodes had no credible evidence and made no reliable factual allegations that would support her unsubstantiated claims that Obama can’t serve as president. Instead, Rhodes used her complaint for political rhetoric and to call Obama “an illegal usurper” and “unlawful pretender,” the judge writes.

I smell Glenn Beck's new co-hosts. After the inevitable book deal with Regnery Press.

[Are_grits_groceries]

33. My cats are way smarter than that.

They would have sense enough to not dis a judge to the max and then file a motion before that same judge.

He held the book up at her last time. I think he's going to throw it now. She'll wish she was in Wonderland.

[malaise]

36. Court marshall Rhodes, disbar

batshit crazy Orly and forget these assholes.
Fuck all birthers. You cannot pay attention to people who can't deal with facts.
Fuck those fucking 'morans'.

[blondeatlast]

39. Let this thread NOT die a quiet death. nt

[msanthrope]

42. WAIT!!! RHODES didn't want the motion filed!!!

http://www.scribd.com/doc/19905657/RHODES-v-MacDONALD-1...

[blondeatlast]

43. Maybe she should have thought of that before she was photographed with Taitz

outside the courtroom.

Methingks the good doctor is realizing what a moronic mistake she's making...

[Brother Buzz]

45. That photograph of Taitz and Rhodes outside the courthouse was taken Monday

Taitz filed the wacky emergency request for stay on Thursday.
