Anyone with an IQ higher than a clam realizes there's something fishy about a president that spends over $1mil to hide a long form birth certificate worth less than twenty bucks.
I’m shocked...shocked I say...
/sarc
I'm with ya on that one. Beginning to suspect that myself. And if we're right......we're screwed. That means:
1. Legislative Branch - CORRUPTED!
2. Judicial Branch - CORRUPTED!
3. Executive Branch - CORRUPTED!
4. Safeguard - U.S. Military - CORRUPTED!
5. Watchdogs - media - CORRUPTED!
The marxists have been busy.
This result was very predictable. The place of Obama's birth has nothing to do with the legality of the orders he disobeyed. The colonel is throwing away his career, and probably his freedom, for nothing.
Were you aware that in every single case in this nation, no defense attorney gets everything that he orshe asks for?
I'm not sure what the Army calls it, but he should have formally Requested Mast prior to disobeying orders.
What “kangaroo” court? He disobeyed a legal order and he’s being court martialed for it. Nothing “kangaroo” about it.
He was told; Don’t ask because we can’t tell!!!
Is there something fishy about BHO? Sure, we’re in agreement here, but when it comes to what this LTC did, you guys are missing something.
The military is an organization that, at it’s heart, operates on the understanding of the chain of command. Every member has his or her place on that chain and this LTC stepped out of the chain when he refused the orders of his brigade commander, who is his superior officer.
The ones who have the responsibility to assure that our Commander-in-Chief is actually eligible to occupy that position are the Congress and SCoTUS, not the military. The military TAKES their orders from the President, they don’t give orders to the President. Once BHO was sworn in as President, the Military was honor bound to obey him even if they disagreed with him. To do otherwise is to stage a coup, which WILL NOT happen.
Do I agree that BHO is probably not eligable to be President? Yes. Do I think that the military dishonored itself in serving him? Hell no. They upheld their honor by carrying out their duty to this country and obeying the orders issued by the Commander-in-Chief despite their own personal opinions. They upheld the chain of command, doing their duty even when it wasn’t expedient or possibly even safe to do so. It’s what they do best.
An officer’s oath is to the constitution not to some legalistic nonsense that some lawyer dreamed up.
Lakin is allowed to defend himself against the charges filed against him, and Obama's eligibility is irrelevant to that. Obama could be exposed as a fraud and removed from office tomorrow, and Lakin would still be guilty of refusing to obey the orders of his brigade commander and of missing movement.
Uh, YES!
The WH has probably promised several promotions and plush assignments if they make this go away.
The people who advised LTC Lakin and assured him that the Obama eligibility issue would be allowed into evidence will be standing by as free men and free women when he is hauled away to Leavenworth to serve his sentence. All of them were on a fool’s errand, but only Lakin will pay the price.
Time for the pitchforks, torches, tar & feathers ladies & gentlemen.
November is just a short four more months away. We can then let all elected officials and union thugs alike that we intend to take our country back from the Marxist, Homosexuals, Atheist, La Raza, Islam & Global Warming Lunatics.
Wasn’t this an Article 32 hearing? The court martial is yet to be conducted. At that time he can put on his defense before the court. That court will determine what evidence is allowed, I believe.
The LT has what it takes to outlast them all --
I agree that Obama is hiding something. I defer to the legal experts on whether this proceeding will “work” to get Obama’s records unsealed.
And I think people are missing something. I can’t read Col. Lakin’s mind. But it’s just possible that, when all is said and done, he would rather go to jail than follow orders he believes to be questionable and a violation of his oath. I assume like everyone else that he would rather not land in prison. But there have been others in the past who, rightly or wrongly, have made such decisions.
Just a thought.
