Army captain challenges legitimacy of Barack Obama's birth certificate; Orly Taitz involved.
By ALAN RIQUELMY - ariquelmy@ledger-enquirer.com
An Army captain fighting deployment to Iraq has challenged the legitimacy of Barack Obamas presidency in a federal complaint filed this month, and has employed attorney Orly Taitz a national figure in the birther movement to represent her.
The complaint of Capt. Connie Rhodes, filed Friday in the Columbus division of U.S. District Court, is similar to the July 8 suit filed by Maj. Stefan Frederick Cook, who sought conscientious objector status and a temporary injunction. Taitz represents both.
Plaintiff ... submits and charges that the current de facto president is an illegal usurper, an unlawful pretender, an unqualified imposter ... Rhodes complaint states. (She) submits that she cannot lawfully act under his authority, but that she is being forced to do so without any opportunity or remedial avenue whatsoever.
Rhodes seeks to stop U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates, the commander of Fort Benning and others from giving any order to her or others until Obamas legitimacy is established, the complaint states. She also seeks conscientious objector status based on her doubts of Obamas constitutional qualifications.
Any update on the Orly court hearing in CA that was scheduled for today?
