The Department of Defense has compelled a private employer to fire a U.S. Army Reserve major from his civilian job after he had his military deployment orders revoked for arguing he should not be required to serve under a president who has not proven his eligibility for office.
According to the CEO of Simtech Inc., a private company contracted by the Defense Security Services, an agency of the Department of Defense, the federal agency has compelled the termination of Maj. Stefan Frederick Cook.
Cook's attorney, Orly Taitz, wrote in her blog that Simtech CEO Larry Grice said he would try to find another position within the company for Cook, but nothing is currently available.
The Department of Defense does contracting in the general field of information technology/systems integration, at which Cook, a senior systems engineer and architect, was employed until taking a military leave of absence on July 10 in preparation for his deployment to Afghanistan.
"Grice told Plaintiff, in essence, that the situation had become 'nutty and crazy,' and that plaintiff would no longer be able to work at his old position," Taitz wrote.
Grice made clear that it was Defense Security Services that had compelled Simtech to fire Cook.
According to the report, Grice told Cook "there was some gossip that 'people were disappointed in' the plaintiff because they thought he was manipulating his deployment orders to create a platform for political purposes."
The Simtech CEO then discussed Cook's expectation of final paychecks, without any severance pay, and wished the soldier well.

That’s just cold! What ever happened to the good old days when Bill Clinton just had your cat killed and your tires slashed?

When it comes to clearances, contractors will jump and not even ask if they can come down, much less how high.
I will have to rethink my support of the military (donations to Paralyzed Veterans, etc.). If they throw their own under the bus, they’re no better than Soetoro.
You’d think Hussein would clear this up by PROVING he is Constitutionally eligible.

February Cook contacts Orly wanting to be part of her litigation.
May Cook requests a additional tour (a request he could rescind at any time up to the day of deployment)
July enters the TVO action
I find it objectionable using his uniform as a tool for political purpose.
And that my friend ias a very good question.
Yep, I would certainly kick 0 wheree it hurt if I seen him laying in the street. Not for any other reason than to hear him whimper like the spoilt child he is
He can have mine, it doesn’t exist anymore.
Yep. He can commit the modern equivalent of Arkancide. That ends legal actions.
When filing an injunction, or any other legal document, it helps if you spell your plaintiff's name right. Makes you look dumb otherwise.
I believe the company is complaining that the major is getting them mixed up in his political windmill-tilting. And who here want's to bet that the next step won't be a letter from the Secretary of the Army telling him his services as an officer in the Army Reserve are no longer needed?

What was the reason given ???
Maj. Cook needs to find a way to get himself interviewed on every show he can. If just a few pick it up...Glenn Beck, Bill O’Reilly, I don’t see how the rest of the media can ignore it. Lots of military watch FOX news...and agree with him or not, Maj. Cook’s story needs legs.
He isn’t so he can’t! That is becoming very obvious.
He’s a Freeper but I don’t remember his screen name
“reddog” sumpin or other
“And what will Jim Rob do when he is asked to provide all the Email addresses for Freepers?”
why ask me? LOL
ask JR
Stuff rolls down hill in the military...sometimes very rapidly.
