The Dreaded Birth Certificate
It’s a subject we rarely discuss here. And for good reason, I think.
This is one for the courts. To me it’s a legitimate question that should be asked. But it should be played out in the courts. When we allow it to be OJ’ed (I coined it! I coined it!) we risk allowing potentially far more damaging and reaching issues to slip under the radar. Do you think maybe that’s why Obama is stonewalling on this?
If he’d just produce the damn thing we could let it rest and move on, one way or another. But no, he keeps tying it up and folks keep going after it when those energies could be better used combating all the czars or the Obamacare or the Stimuless or his Socialist and Marxist pals around the globe.
Let it get to a courtroom. Let a (hopefully) impartial judge hear it and decide. Then report on it. Until then, we have other fish to fry.
Which takes us to this story from

Pentagon orders soldier fired for challenging prezArmy warrior terminated from job after questioning Obama eligibility
By Chelsea Schilling and Joe Kovacs© 2009 WorldNetDaily
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 government 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, Taitz wrote.
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.
Messages left with Grice's office had not been returned at the time of this
report.
"A federal agency (such as the Department of Defense, acting through the
Defense Security Services Agency) clearly violates the Whistleblower Protection
Act if it takes or fails to take (or threatens to take or fail to take) a personnel action with respect to any employee or applicant because of any disclosure of information by the employee or applicant that he or she reasonably believes evidences a violation of a law, rule or regulation; gross mismanagement; gross waste of funds; an abuse of authority; or a substantial and specific danger to public health or safety," Taitz wrote.
"What has happened in the present case of Stefan Frederick Cook is that a federal agency appears to have taken action against Stefan Frederick Cook's private employer, Simtech, Inc., which is a closely held corporation owned and operated by members of a single family, who are as much victims of the Department of Defense's heavy-handed interference with plaintiff Cook's private-sector employment as is plaintiff Cook himself."
As WND reported, Taitz confirmed to WND the military rescinded Maj. Cook's
impending deployment orders.
"We won! We won before we even arrived," she said with excitement. "It
means that the military has nothing to show for Obama. It means that the
military has directly responded by saying Obama is illegitimate – and they
cannot fight it. Therefore, they are revoking the order!" She continued,
"They just said, 'Order revoked.' No explanation. No reasons – just revoked."
A hearing on the questions raised by Maj. Stefan Frederick Cook, an engineer who told WND he wants to serve his country in Afghanistan, is still scheduled for July 16 at 9:30 a.m.
"As an officer in the armed forces of the United States, it is [my] duty to gain clarification on any order we may believe illegal. With that said, if President Obama is found not to be a 'natural-born citizen,' he is not eligible to be commander-in-chief," he told WND only hours after his case was originally filed.
The rest here.
Now, to me, there are 2 core issues to this. First, of course, is the birth certificate. But the other is the actions of Major Cook. On all of it just a couple points.
1. UNTIL PROVEN OTHERWISE Obama is the legitimate POTUS (goddammitall). So on those grounds alone the soldier has no standing. He can (and should) protest and question and demand all he likes but refusing orders under these circumstances is insubordination at best, maybe dereliction of duty.
2. As such the military would have been within their rights to court martial Cook. But by Cook/Taitz going public it forces the military into the situation where if they court martial it appears they are court martialing a whistleblower, major public relations disaster. So instead they rescind his orders. And have him fired. The article stated someone no longer wanted his services in uniform. Well they also seem to be saying the same about ANY defense work he does. OR, the employer is either embarressed (or maybe even pissed) that someone working for them did something like this. And they want to push it back on the military. How is it that they could try to find him another position if they are saying the military wants him out?
3. Big mistake to rescind those orders. Because now it opens the door for any malfaesant (and I'm not saying Cook is one, he may truly believe as he does) to use this to ignore orders to deploy. Are they going to now rescind the orders of everyone who objects on these grounds? What kind of chaos will that cause?
4. This is America.
Even Obama is innocent until proven guilty. As I said he is the legitimate POTUS until someone can prove otherwise. Legally (I think) he doesn't have to prove anything. Others have to prove -- not alledge -- that he is guilty of what they say. No one has done that yet. Even a President under impeachment is still legitimate UNTIL HE IS REMOVED FROM OFFICE. And Obama is under neither impeachment nor indictment at this time. I think Cook may believe he has a legitimate gripe. He certainly has every right and duty to question it and pursue it as he best he can. I don't think he has a right to refuse what are, to my mind, legal orders. I think Taitz caught wind of this and is pushing Cook, using him to further her own agenda.

Ok. There ya go. Talk amongst yourselves.
