Nope.

The Army, upon receiving the restraining order, couldn’t wait to pull the Major’s heart out through his rectum.

This is a slam dunk case for the Army’s lawyer - satisfy the Major’s requirement that the order’s came from a legitimate NCA, and then decide whether to put the Major on a plane, or in the brig.

Army’s lawyer calls the Pentagon’s liason to the WH, and requests that BHO provide his birth certificate. Fax it, scan it, messenger a notorized copy from HI to the Army base in HI, and set up a conference call with that base’s legal officer, and the case is over. Four hours total, two days tops, to clear this thing and then ensure that the Major retires a Major, or perhaps something lower.

Army’s lawyer gets the following in response:

Rescind the order.

Army’s lawyer is probably speechless, wondering what to say to something like that, because the ramifications of that are nothing less than:

“If I just heard the WH correctly, no officer holding a commission will be expected to follow any order by force of UCMJ, because if they won’t prosecute the Major, and respond instead to rescinding his order, then it means any officer who pulls this stunt can expect the same treatment.”

Now the Army lawyer is starting to feel a bit dizzy, knowing that there are ballistic missile submarines and missile silos - all commanded by officers - who will now either follow or not follow their orders - anybody’s guess on whether they will or won’t, because if they don’t on these grounds, they Pentagon will RESCIND the order.

All of this to say the following chilling thing:

There is no longer legitimate National Command Authority in the United States of America. If you refuse to follow a direct order, on the grounds of that order coming from an illegal CINC, then you go away scot free: order rescinded.

As of today, we now have a Constitutional crisis.

Excellent summation, and I appreciate your perspective in all of this.

This definitely bears repeating:

"If I just heard the WH correctly, no officer holding a commission will be expected to follow any order by force of UCMJ, because if they won’t prosecute the Major, and respond instead to rescinding his order, then it means any officer who pulls this stunt can expect the same treatment.”

In short, officers will not be punished by the UCMJ if they question the Constitutional authority of Obama's right to hold office.

Come on, Patriots in the military!

STAND UP AND QUESTION OBAMA'S UNCONSTITUTIONAL STRANGLEHOLD ON THE PRESIDENCY!

CHALLENGE AND DEFY THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS...

With the crisis in place, what do you predict will happen next?

[2ndDivisionVet]

Brilliant analysis.

[SE Mom]

Fascinating. Thanks for your post.

What do you suppose is going on behind closed doors? Are Army lawyers taking this as seriously as they should? How can this be effectively buried without other officers beginning to ask qestions- not just about the legitimacy of the CINC -but about the application of the UCMJ?

This is unsettling as hell.

Funny, one would never know it. The media is out to lunch, including Fox.

[wintertime]

Wow!

Although the mainstream media is refusing to publish this, I bet Maj. Cook’s case is sweeping through the military like **wildfire**!

[conservativegramma]

AMEN! Well said dialog. Finally, SOMEONE GETS IT!

[Danae]

That was 100% my read on this.

Frankly it scares the bejesus out of me.

[Jacksonian Grouch]

Yep, sounds about right, the way you’re reading it.

Save for the date-time stamp on the beginning of The Crisis -

that would be 04 November 2008.

"As of today, we now have a Constitutional crisis."

As of January 20, 2009 we've had a constitutional crisis.
