“Are you suggesting that the entire military chain of command is committing a crime by passing on illegal orders to fight the war in Afghanistan?”
+++++++++++++++++

The Democrat Party, the Ds in Congress, the SCOTUS, et al, just may be committing crimes by covering up the very legitimate requests of the American people to know the true status and standing of OUR president. If they, and we all have to provide our status and standing, why doesn’t this supposed president need to do the same. All of those people on my list, have taken and oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.

In my view, for them to knowingly not do so, for political expediency is CRIMINAL.

This Major had more guts than most of us will ever dream of..

I imagine Major Cook knew this was going to be VERY PUBLIC, by the way.

Certainly he must have.

Admin Moderator, I would like to publicly restoration of posting #87. The contents of those orders came from a public website, and were posted by the person representing Major Cook. I believe it's more than fair to consider them public information.

If anyone would like to read the apparent text of the revocation of Major Cooke's orders, it's available at Dr. Taitz's website at http://www.orlytaitzesq.com/blog1/.

"It is NOT up to this soldier to decide what orders he is or is not going to follow"

Your words not mine, you suggested that This Major should not get to decide what orders he must follow.

It is a soldiers duty to obey those orders he knows are legal and refuse to follow those he knows are not, and under the UCMJ if he is right in refusing such an order he will be cleared of all charges against him.

And if he is wrong under the UCMJ he can be confined or even executed for missing Movement in time of war, and he knows this!

In the military we are taught that we have that protection under the UCMJ, that if we can prove an order is illegal that we will be cleared. I have personally refused an order before and been exonerated although it never went further than standing up before my superior officer and explaining my reasoning, he agreed with me, and nothing happened, it was a case where I made a decision and stuck to my guns.

The next order he may receive could be to active duty with assignment to the closest Army installation for Courts Martial proceedings.

If he goes down in a court martial you can bet your bottom dollar that the heat to find the truth about Obama's past will increase 100 fold. By court martialing the Major, it will open Obama up for discovery where Obama does not want to go.

Agreed. The man has balls. I wouldn’t have posted his home address and SSN online though. It makes him and his family vulnerable to Obamanuts. He’s gonna get take alot of heat and scrutiny from the left as it is.

That post contains personal information and should be deleted. I’ll hit “Abuse” to save you the trouble.

Yes, you are correct, and I have also requested that #87 stay deleted, both with the Abuse button and with a posting to that effect.

I was going to say they didn't punt, they fumbled. But in reality they didn't even show up on the field.

You're completely wrong.

The Congress met in a special Joint Session on January 5, 2009 to examine the matter, with Richard Cheney of Wyoming in the chair.

As prescribed by Article II and Amendment XII, the electoral votes were scrutinized, and Barack Hussein Obama was certified as President-Elect.

As per the Electoral Vote Counting Act, an objection by one Senator and one Member of Congress was necessary to investigate further, but no objections were raised. Vice-President and President of the Senate Cheney was free to object, and he did not do so.

Congress showed up, they did their duty, and the result was unanimous.

As a result, Obama is legally President and legally C-in-C unless and until he is shown to be ineligible. His orders are completely and totally lawful (to the extent that they comply with Article II), and disobedience by a service member is a crime.

All of the relevant Constitutional officers of the Republic, including President of the Senate Richard Cheney of Wyoming, have affirmed Obama's eligibility and have certified his election in a proper and constitutional manner.

The job of the President of the Senate, regarding Electoral Votes, is to count them. No where does the Constitution give him the authority to rule on anybody's authority to anything. Read the 12th Amendment.

BTW, who are these other "relevant Constitutional officers of the Republic"?

“Well, his patriotic duty is do follow his orders. Period.
What this soldier “feels” stopped being important the day he took his oath.”

I respectfully disagree. HIS DUTY is to support and defend the constitution. That is what is in an Officer’s oath, and he is taking it literally. He is NOT attempting to evade duty, he is attempting to expose what he considers to be a fraud. Is he right? I don’t know. However, if President Obama would simply release the BC, and there were no impediments....then this all goes away. Why doesn’t the POTUS just do that?

Also, this is revocation order is more administrative process than anything else. Any soldier who refuses to deploy for whatever reason has their deployment orders revoked or amended. The next order he may receive could be to active duty with assignment to the closest Army installation for Courts Martial proceedings.

Revoked before he "fails to go"?

If the order was revoked, he can't disobey it can he? He never refused to go, since he wasn't supposed to go until today.

You haven't a clue, he wasn't subject to the UCMJ, until today, the 15th. (with the exception that he could not ask to be transferred out of his active reserve position (subject to being ordered to active duty) put in for retirement, if eligible, or resign his commission, once he'd received the movement order. But he didn't do any of those, nor did he ever, "fail to go".

Why, the Electors for President and Vice-President of the United States, chosen by the People, of course.
