Staff Sgt. Daryn Moran, a so-called "birther" who denies President Barack Obama's U.S. citizenship, is being discharged from the Air Force, the military confirmed Wednesday.

Moran, of Omaha, says he quit reporting for duty at an Air Force base in Germany last week to protest the commander in chief, whom he disparages as a criminal who should be arrested.

But the Air Force, in its first statement on the case, said Moran was in fact already in the process of being discharged when he stopped reporting for work.

“He is currently outprocessing for discharge from the Air Force, which was previously approved by his commander on August 4th,” says a statement released by U.S. Air Forces in Europe.

3. Somebody will play this up as the guy being discharged for his birther views....

while the fact is that he was unfit to serve.

25. So? Being mentally disabled is still a reason for discharge, isn't it?

Worrying about what Republicans might say is a waste of time. I am 100% certain they'll say something stupid and/or deceitful.

4. Now a man with an ounce of brains would have figured out the winner in this match

"Now it's plain and simple," he tweeted Monday. "Arrest B. Obama or arrest me. I'm waiting in my house." Prez Obama is you boss and you are a bottom of the ladder Staff Sgt.

17. Ya gotta love idiots like that...

they actually thought someone would arrest Obama? For what, exactly?

I'm not much for violence, but Orly Taitz and the rest of these idiots need to be rounded up and beaten with hammers.

5. Is he still getting benefits?

Was it a dishonorable discharge (which is what the creep deserves)?

6. getting a honorable disharge..wow

This man needs psychiatric help. Why the Air Force not getting it for him is odd.

[ManiacJoe]

20. The article did not say "honorable".

It just said "discharged".

[Erose999]

23. Lets hope its not an honorable. I can't think of anything "honorable" he's done to deserve one.

9. I'm sure the Koch Brothers will take care of him

Yep, I'm sure the Koch Brothers will be his Sugar Daddy, until they no longer need him.

10. More on the story

He was put on leave sometime earlier this year after some of his co-workers at the eye clinic were bothered by comments he made about the repeal of "don't ask, don't tell" and about Muslim terrorists and how he thought Obama was connected to Muslims. One of the doctors at the clinic was Muslim.

It's not clear whether Moran would have been prosecuted for refusing to report for duty because it appears his discharge was approved by his commander about a week beforehand.

Air Force spokesman Michael Kucharek said Wednesday that his commander approved the discharge on Aug. 4. Moran had refused to report for duty starting last Thursday.

Moran said he is receiving an honorable discharge, but the Air Force would only confirm that he is being discharged.

Reporting for duty is not normally optional, even during the process of being discharged. I see he was put on leave on account of his behavior while on duty, which causes me to suspect he's getting a General or Other Than Honorable Discharge for having a personality disorder.

15. I'd say that just about any teabragger or birther is a walking...

section 8.

Maybe the bastid can join the Dick Armey Backwash Brigade over on the group W bench.

He's prolly just worried about Jody taking care of his bidness in the rear.

Edit to add...Freakin' Moran!!1!!1!11!!! He'd better quit "stocking" the CiC!

16. I don't know but I've been told (hup twop threp four)

They don't do that one anymore.

[No Elephants]

26. Good one!

[Historic NY]

11. He abandoned his post by not showing up for his job...

[Javaman]

12. really "brave" of him to speak out while he's already being discharged.

whatever, more bullshit ball licking rhetoric.

[Roland99]

13. Coward. Big, fat, freakin' COWARD

[Butch350]

14. GOOD! No sympathy here.

The military is no place for him - and others like him. I'm ex-military and my loyalty was to my country
And who-ever sat in the WH.

18. You can't fire me, I quit? What a moran.

[SoapBox]
