An officer’s oath is to the constitution not to some legalistic nonsense that some lawyer dreamed up.
I believe whollly that Obama has polluted the lawyer pool involved in all these cases with paid thugs. It’s a freaking birth certificate—time, money, personal freedom are NOT worth the effort to keep it private ESPECIALLY since Obama claims it’s already posted online. This should be simple.
Boggles the mind.
The officer disobeyed orders from his immediate commander. The Army is absolutely correct applying the court martial. Even when military personnel refuse to carry out an unlawful order, a court martial will occur. It will be up to the court to determine the verdict and related punishment.
The officer made his choice; and, like an officer and a gentleman, will have to bear the consequences. I'm sure he did so knowing full well what would happen, but chose to make a statement through the termination of his career and possible jail time.
