The group backing Birther Army Doctor Terrence Lakin as he makes his way through the military justice system announced today that Lakin is waiving a preliminary hearing that was set for Friday.
Lt. Col. Lakin refused orders on the grounds that Barack Obama is not eligible to be president. It is now up to Maj. Gen. Karl Horst, Military District of Washington Commander, to decide if the case will go to trial, said Chuck Dasey, spokesman at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, where Lakin is assigned.
The American Patriot Foundation said in a press release: Saying that the Army has made it "impossible for me to present a defense" at the Article 32 "preliminary hearing" previously scheduled for June 11, 2010, Lt. Colonel Terrence Lakin has officially waived -cancelled--that proceeding. Therefore, the case will move inexorably on to a General Court Martial.

If the people whose advice he sought said this would resolve the birth certificate issue, they were badly uninformed.
It make sense that they did cancel it.
Seems she has not sent a recommendation. You state she has.
Yeah, everyone should just keep their head down, say nothing, and hope 0thugga doesn’t destroy the entire country and someone better is elected eventually.
Speaking up and acting on behalf of the Constitution is just so suicidal and useless. Not only should no one do it, just to be safe we should all criticize anyone who does.
How would that work? I've never heard of such a thing.
“Dasey, the military spokesman, sent along this statement on the case:
LTC Lakin waived his Article 32 hearing on 4 June 2010.
Once the Article 32 was waived, the charges were forwarded by Walter Reed commanding general with a recommendation as to disposition to MG Horst, the Military District of Washington Commander, on 8 June 2010.
It is now up to MG Horst, to determine if the case will go to court-martial and the level of court-martial. MG Horst could also decide that some other disposition is more appropriate than court-martial.
MG Horst is the General Court-Martial Convening Authority for Soldiers assigned to Walter Reed Army Medical Center.”
From the link you posted. Who the heck is Dasey?
If this is such a big deal why doesn’t obama just show his birth certificate????????????
Ping to list!

Michael Savage:
“To have elected an unknown man of unknown origin, a man who’s probably not even an American citizen – How can the whole military not know this?” Savage asked on air this past week. “How could the entire military establishment not be asking the same question that millions of Americans are asking?
“Do you think it’s plausible that the entire United States military complex does not understand the extreme dangers of having a commander in chief with dual allegiances in the White House?” Savage asked of Obama, who has publicly admitted he was born to a British father and therefore born a dual citizen. “Do they not understand that the presidency may have been usurped by a foreign power?”

Please post the press release from Walter Reed stating LTC Lakin’s Commander General forwarded the charges.
You are saying the Army issued a press release under the name of Dasey and most likely works in the Public Affairs Office at Walter Reed.
Please provide a link to the official press release.
In this highly charged case the 'convening authority' will be the major command.
I'll add some info to what a convening authority does.
No trial court martial is complete without the convening authority's written approval or disapproval of the findings and sentence.
The convening authority can approve any portion of the findings or sentence found to be correct in law OR disapprove any findings or sentence in whole or part believed to be inappropriate. The convening authority may suspend the execution of any sentence that has been approved, except in the sentence of death. In certain instances, the convening authority may order a rehearing of the case. The convening authority may defer the service of a sentence to confinement. A deferment postpones the confinement, and the confinement, and the postponement remains in effect until the proper authority orders the sentence carried out or rescinds it.
Yeah, everyone should just keep their head down, say nothing, and hope 0thugga doesn’t destroy the entire country and someone better is elected eventually.

I don't agree with your premise. Some people do not define there lives by the profession or job they may have at the moment.
He isn't going to convince anyone who isn't already convinced and this court isn't going to subpoena Obama or his records. It's just a waste a good man is doing this to himself.
It will have an effect. Obama is not going to look good by the persecution of LTC Lakin. The legacy of Obama will be as of a fraud that only the delusional will deny. Time is not on his side.

This is from the original article that this thread is based on: “Lt. Col. Lakin refused orders on the grounds that Barack Obama is not eligible to be president. It is now up to Maj. Gen. Karl Horst, Military District of Washington Commander, to decide if the case will go to trial, said Chuck Dasey, spokesman at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, where Lakin is assigned.”
I googled “Chuck Dasey Walter Reed” and found this: Media may contact Walter Reed’s Public Affairs Officer Chuck Dasey at (202) 782-7500 or e-mail at chuck.dasey@us.army.mil
Where is the official press release stating charges were sent from Walter Reed to MG Horst.
You said they were sent according to a Dasey “most likely a spokesperson in the office of PA at WR.”
