An insubordinate Army doctor has been charged with disobeying orders after failing to show up for duty in Afghanistan and questioning whether President Barack Obama has the right to order him there. Lt. Col. Terrence Lakin, birther and insubordinate soldier headed for court martial
Lt. Col. Terrence Lakin, birther and insubordinate soldier headed for court martial
Lt. Col. Terrence Lakin is scheduled to be arraigned Friday at Fort Belvoir, VA and in all likelihood will either be sentenced to detention and/or given a dishonorable discharge from the military.
Lakin will be charged under Article 92 and 86, Uniform Code of Military Justice which states - Under Article 92, Any person subject to this chapter who:
(1) violates or fails to obey any lawful general order or regulation;
(2) having knowledge of any other lawful order issued by any member of the armed forces, which it is his duty to obey, fails to obey the order; or...
shall be punished as a court-martial may direct.
Under Article 86, UCMJ. Any member of the armed forces who, without authority -
(1) fails to go to his appointed place of duty at the time prescribed;
(2) goes from that place; or
(3) absents himself or remains absent from his unit, organization, or place of duty at which he is required to be at the time prescribed;
shall be punished as a court-martial may direct.
I hope Lakin gets both jail time and a dishonorable discharge. From the video he posted on YouTube, it looks like he will have a short court martial as it seems he will just plead guilty. Hopefully he will expeditiously sentenced to jail time and a dishonorable discharge.
Lakin is from Greeley, Colorado and was ordered to go to Afghanistan. He did not report to Fort Campbell, KY

Funny how the word "allegedly" is missing here.
Give it a few minutes before ex-laterine commandos show up and say Lakin deserves court martial. I guess they never read The Constitution whilst guarding the laterines.
He is making himself the enemy of our ENTIRE collusive, corrupt, and compromised federal government - democrat and republican alike!
Does the CIC authorizing the order lawfully hold office? That is the question.
I salute a courageous patriot in the tradition of the Founding Fathers!
bfl
Looks like he got bored in the Army. Is there a faster and better way to get out ? A court martial resulting in a dishonorable discharge is quite serious (felony) so you have to wonder.
/salute.
ROFLMAO! Just one and a half short years ago the San Francisco Gate would have hailed as a hero any Army Doctor or Soldier refusing to deploy to Afghanistan. What a difference having a Marxist in Chief makes to the leftist LSM.
We still await the answer.
Of course we know what it is already. Its all a matter of forcing the powers that be to admit they know it too.
Funny how the word "allegedly" is missing here.
No media bias here, no sirieeee
Has it occurred to you that one who occupies an office under fraudulent circumstances cannot issue a lawful order?
LTC Lakin is a hero...God Bless Him
Of course, we have too many in the media who attack Birthers and support Obama. The worst are the “faux cons” like Ann Coulter, Glenn Beck, Andrew Brietbart...and a few others....who attack Birthers, and really support Obama
If you are not a Birther....you are an Obama supporter
Completely, totally and unequivocally unbiased report ping...

WTF???
He is "scheduled to be ARRAIGNED" and "WILL BE SENTENCED?"
Gee, you F'n morons, don't you think you should be waiting UNTIL AFTER the court martial to (a) find him guilty or innocent, and (b) then allow the court to impose a sentence, if any???
OR IS THIS A BLATANT EXAMPLE OF TYPICAL, CORRUPT, BIASED, FAR LEFT, LIB-LOON, STATE-RUN, MEDIA???
I don’t think so. He could have simply resigned his commission prior to coming up on deployment orders. That would have been faster and he wouldn’t have to worry about the possibility of a dishonorable discharge.
"Hawaii State Health Director Dr. Chiyome Fukino previously issued statements saying that Governor Lingle has seen vital records that prove Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born American citizen."
Notice how it is Fukino, speaking for Lingle, citing phantom documents which when viewed by an HI official then are by law to be available to the public, who is making assumptions not substantiated in a law function, which the obamanoiids latch onto as 'proof of natural born status' for their little lying sonofabitch-in-chief. Think of the disdain such scum must have for the public they presume they can fool with such shenanigans!
