I like curry.

This guy Cook should be placed in jail. I'm not sure what the charges would be but the guy is a crook of some kind. He's like a flim-flam man. And his attorney should be barred from every court room in the country.

Oh, and good morning everyone.

(that's okay ysb, you don't have to link to the movie Flim-Flam Man) :)

I mean, seriously. This ain't a beauty pageant where John McCain became the runner-up for coming in second.

Vice-President Joseph Biden would take over the duties of Barack Obama upon Obama's death, incapacitation, or inability to fulfill the duties of his office. That would put either President pro tem of the Senate, Robert Byrd; or Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi into the VP's slot (and SecState Hillary Rodham Clinton would follow Pelosi).

Furthermore, Cook alleges that deployment orders to Afghanistan are illegal ... except we've been engaged in operations in Afghanistan since 2001. If so, that implies that either ALL operations in Afghanistan have been illegal, or that any continuation of said operations is illegal.

The Army deserves a boot to the head for punting - they're simply saying that since Cook, a reservist, volunteered for deployment, his refusing to comply is being viewed as having changed his mind, rather than disobeying a direct order in a time of war.

...behind the shed with no one else at home.

They'd probably just take him out back and horse whip him.

Then he would go.

God Bless The USA

all the "liberals" on this blog are upset cause the guy doesn't want to go to war?

from his civilian defense contracting job.

See http://washingtonindependent.com/51177/birthe...

Many cheating Reslugs have lied about hiking on the appalachian trail.

and they threatened to put draft dodgers in jail in the '60's?

makes this whole thing absolutely disgusting is that according to the Columbus, GA Ledger-Enquirer, the guy actually had volunteered SPECIFICALLY for deployment. I don't just mean joining the reserves as a volunteer, but contacting the Army and saying he wanted to go to Afghanistan. When did he make this request?

May 18, 2009. As in after Obama was inaugurated.

So, somehow, in May he had no problem with the idea of being deployed under Obama's orders, but now he does.

Worse, a retired 2-Star Army General and active Air Force Lieutenant have joined Cook's suit. The government has already told Cook he won't have to report for duty, and said that his suit was now moot, but

[I]n a pleading revised after the revocation of Cook’s orders, Taitz argues that the application for preliminary injunction is not moot and that retired Maj. Gen. Carol Dean Childers and active U.S. Air Force reservist Lt. Col. David Earl Graeff have joined the suit “because it is a matter of unparalleled public interest and importance and because it is clearly a matter arising from issues of a recurring nature that will escape review unless the Court exercises its discretionary jurisdiction.”

Cook’s resubmitted Application for Preliminary Injunction is meant to encompass the possibility of Cook receiving future orders for deployment as well as to address and prevent “negative collateral consequences such as retaliation against Major Stefan Frederick Cook ...”

As to the retaliation issue, the revised suit states Cook lost his job at Simtech Inc., a corporation that does Department of Defense contracting in the field of information technology/systems integration, because of the suit. It also states that Cook has been subjected to “gossip” from people who believed Cook was “manipulating his deployment orders to create a platform for political purposes.”

Taitz, who has challenged the legitimacy of Obama’s presidency in other courts, filed the original suit with the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Georgia. Two similar suits have previously been thrown out of federal court.

[Emphasis mine] Gee, he REQUESTS a deployment under President Obama in May and 2 months later files a suit to prevent his voluntary deployment because he doesn't believe Obama is eligible to be President? I can't see why anyone would think he's manipulating his deployment for political purpose...

Stephanie Miller of Air America went into the military with a pilonidal cyst.

Rush has been lying about it for years. He's a draft dodger, plain and simple.

Question...

Isn't Pat Buchannan basically saying "We should use terrorism against Iran."

Terror is almost always a weapon of the powerful not the weak.

The weak throw stones and fight these monsters and their corporate backers.

that Orly Tates looks absolutely batshit crazy??

Can someone tell me why this Orly Taitz (God, the name just screams to be used in a James Bond flick) hasn't been challenged and disbarred yet! People like her have lost their minds over the fact that a black man is governing them!
