Where’s the evidence of a million dollars spent by BHO?
I’m not sure about the sequence of Dr Taiz’s blogs. but based on #2946, it look like the Cook case isn’t going to happen on 7/16. Is this correct?
“Mr Chairman, I rise to speak in support of President Palin’s pick of Orly Taitz for Attorney General.”
Perhaps it’s just me, but you seem to have a vested interested in finding for Obama.
Apparently, Sun Tzu never unstood the value of diversions.
I would rather listen to Winston Churchill: “We will fight them on the seas, we will fight them on the beaches, we will fight them in....” etc (paraphrased, for sure)
“Wheres the evidence of a million dollars spent by BHO?”

Well he just appointed his roommate at Occidental to an ambassadorship.
I thank you for the frmail, as well.
Bumping Major Cook, and wish him success in his endeavors.
He is a true patriot, and I am proud to stand with him.
You can of course point to any court that has backed Obama. Not merely declared that the person bringing the action did not have standing to do so. IOW, what court has ruled that BHO is eligible.
The Supreme Court itself ruled on Bush vs. Gore.
BTW, welcome to Free Republic.

This should be required reading. But we both know it won't be.
AFAIK, he hasn't said he won't deploy. OTOH, the court will probably rule he doesn't have standing unless and until he does.
I agree! Here is a statement made by Major Cook. He has support of Freepers all across the country!

Stefan F. Cook Major, US Army / Statement Press Release
11. July 2009 @ 21:22 In Uncategorized
[1] Dr. Orly Taitz has filed on my behalf a [2] Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) in Columbus Georgia to prevent me from deploying to Afghanistan until such time as Barack Obama produces definitive proof that he is a [3] natural born US citizen. The basis for the TRO is this: It is my duty as an officer in the US Army to seek clarification as to the legality of orders directed to me by someone in my chain of command (The President of the United States/Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces of the United States) who is not eligible to do so. Should Barack Obama be found not to be a natural born citizen of the US and I follow such an illegal order, I could be subject to punishment under the [4] Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) as well as should I have the misfortune of being captured by the enemy in Afghanistan, I could be subject to prosecution for war crimes as I was conducting military operations illegally. I will not subject myself to such a possibility. As an extension of this, each and every Soldier, Sailor, Airman and Marine who is deployed overseas could possibly find themselves in the same situation as I detailed above. This is an unacceptable position. However, should Barack Obama definitively prove that he is in fact a natural born citizen of the US, and as such, eligible to be President of the US/[5] Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces of the US, I shall deploy to Afghanistan as so ordered. This deployment to Afghanistan was a voluntary request on my part. I am a patriotic citizen of the USA and [6] Officer in the US Army and want to discharge those duties assigned to me in an [7] honorable and legal fashion. I have thought long and hard on my decision to file this TRO. I realize that this action may well end my career as an Army [6] Officer. I have discussed this decision with my family and they are understanding and supportive. This has been a gut-wrenching decision to make.For my entire career in the Army, it has been pounded into us that it is our duty to seek clarification on orders we deem to be questionable in their legality. You sit through the academic exercise and have a discussion about it and move on to the next subject. But when the situation actually arises (like my current situation), well thats something else entirely. You experience that holy crap moment and have to make a decision that may well affect your life from that point on. I find myself in that position right now. I have to have the [9] moral courage to prosecute a course of action that is most distasteful, but yet needs to be done.
Onward into the breach, and [10] faciendum est.

Major, US Army
Right on and I’m standing with him too! Show us the birth certificate Obama!!

Better yet, where’s the birth certificate??
You wrote- “Wheres the evidence of a million dollars spent by BHO?”
Well put! My support offered!!
You wrote- “Major Cook is deserving of all the public support we can muster. His public stand against the control of our military forces by a presidential poser is a brave and selfless act.
Kind thoughts and supportive prayers going out for him and all military personnel everywhere.”
Not being eligible to the office of President. Thus not able to issue a lawful order of any sort. Should the Major obey an unlawful order, he himself would be subject to punishment under the UCMJ, not to mention possible international charges of war crimes. The Major thus wishes to be assured that the person issuing those orders has the lawful authority to do so.
I hope he prevails. Either way, if Obama is eligible or not, he deserves to know, and so do we.
Of course if BO is not eligible, that will open a can of worms, and guarantee full employment for lawyers for decades to come until the last worms are untangled.
Agree and I’ll 2nd that!!
