Memo to Freepers: Always assume a Birther is wrong about any legal matter they spout off about.

I'll concede Red Steel is 1/2 correct. LTC won't lose on grounds of standing.

Of course, LTC Lakin isn't the Plaintiff/Complainant in his own Court Martial. He is the Defendant. So "standing" won't be an issue. The issue he will lose his quixotic quest for discovery on is relevance. He is charged with missing a movement, said movement being ordered by his direct superior. That is what his Court Martial will be about. LTC Lakin will get discovery about matters related to his refusal to obey an order, but not about whether BO is President.

Flame away Birthers.

Article II, Section 2 of the United States Constitution provides the original source of command authority to the President as Commander-in-Chief.

After this case is resolved, and he receives punishment after a trial where the Collective Congressional emotion of embarrassment was a deciding factor of allowing evidence of his innocence or guilt, he will have standing in a Supreme court.

I have to clarify, That is, he would have standing in a free country where law is the rule. When Sobarkah was sworn in, we may have lost that concept and tradition.

Memo to FReepers: there is no doubt that after-Birthers always spout non sequiturs and hide in the grey areas while standing on pin-heads; believe Obama is a natural born citizen despite his constant lying and the evidence to the contrary; seem to lack the understanding that the statists in government along with the Dems will lie for Obama.

We will see that their dishonest manifestations from many of these elected officials are going to get their heads handed to them this November.
