Orly Taitz Creating "Disastrous Consequences" For Military

Obama birther claims soldier’s revoked orders will have ‘disastrous’ ‘consequences’ for the U.S. military.
The reserve soldier who argued he should not have to go to Afghanistan because of far-fetched claims that President Obama is not legally eligible to be commander-in-chief has had his deployment orders revoked. Army Maj. Stefan Frederick Cook filed a request with the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Georgia on July 8 seeking a temporary restraining order and status as a conscientious objector because he believes Obama is not a natural born citizen. Though the military has refused to say why the order was revoked, Cook’s lawyer, renowned Obama conspiracy theorist Orly Taitz, was spinning it as a victory. “They have no cards to play with,” Taitz gleefully told Military.com:

“Can you imagine what are the consequences? This is disastrous” for the administration, she said. “We’ll have no military. Because anytime any Soldier, any Sailor, any Airman does not want to follow any orders, all he has to do is call an attorney and say ‘I don’t want to follow this order because I question the legitimacy of the commander in chief.’ “

Cook, an Individual Mobilization Augmentee, had volunteered for a year’s deployment to Afghanistan on May 8 and his orders were issued June 9. But all is not over for Cook or Taitz. A hearing on Cook’s requests will take place Thursday in the Columbus, Georgia federal court.

The guy volunteered for a temporary active-duty position. As a reservist who volunteered for that position, he has the right to un-volunteer at any time up to the actual deployment. He wanted to not go, so the Army canceled his orders. By following existing regulations, the Army did not insert itself into the birther argument, which is why they did not address the issue, but just canceled his orders.
Now, if an Active Duty person tries this crap, they will be prosecuted under UCMJ Article 92, as well as others.

Republican Wing Nuts.

Later in the war, after some had criticized the arrest and detention of Congressman Clement Vallandigham of Ohio, Lincoln wrote to Erastus Corning in June 1862 that Vallandigham was arrested "because he was laboring, with some effect, to prevent the raising of troops, to encourage desertions from the army, and to leave the rebellion without an adequate military force to suppress it. . . . Must I shoot a simple-minded deserter, while I must not touch a hair of a wily agitator who induces him to desert?" Lincoln did not comment on the proper channels of due process regarding such "agitation."

Mr Lincoln eventually had Vallandigham escorted under guard to Tennessee and sent from there behind Confederate lines.

that Orly said I don't have to follow his orders.

"A hearing on Cook’s requests will take place Thursday in the Columbus, Georgia federal court."

How else would you protest an unjust war?

He just doesn't like his commander.

Seems like the worst kind of soldier to me.

They're just pissed because we elected a black man president.
