24. I saw this when it first popped up, and readily admit I really did
Laugh Out Loud...:D

From what I can gather, Cook and Taitz set this whole thing up as a media "event", and now that several aspects of the Defense Department have gotten involved, Cook lost just about everything.

In some incomprehensible way, to the sane at least, Cook and Taitz figured this would somehow "force" the president out of office...even though almost everyone who first supported BC investigations long ago gave it up as ridiculous. For this orchestrated effort Taitz sealed reputation as a legal hack...but the real loser, as it should be is Cook.

Lost his security clearances.

Lost his job because it required security clearance, (and will no get another job above janitor, if that, in anything Defense works with.)

Lost all credibility with the Army.

Lost any sense of dignity he might have had.

Lost any respect from sane friends and members of his community.

He may lose his house, car, boat or anything he may own, because he won't get a decent job to pay for them.



What has he gained?

Notoriety: Nothing like being a national focal point for soldiers calling him a coward and a traitor; and a couple of insane RWnuts who will somehow find Cook as a "hero"...:wtf:

This is part of the learning experience of anyone who has ever heard the adage, "choose your battles wisely", something he must have missed while climbing the ladder in the military heirarchy...;)


As a vet, I feel obligated to publicly call this man a coward and a traitor...:patriot:
