I blame every single member of congress and every commissioned officer serving on or after Jan 20th, 2009. They all failed their sworn oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America.

You can shift the focus however you want.

I don't want judges making up new laws, even if I agree with the laws those judges create. You can't elect a replacement federal judge, and once the law is written by the judge, it really can't be repealed easily (if at all). Yet, that seems to be the goal of the lawsuits surrounding the birth certificate and Obama's eligibility.

I also don't think that a mutiny or military coup on January 20, 2009 would have been a good outcome. That seems to be what you wish had happened.

Just look at all your neighbors if you want someone to blame.

About that oath to "protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." People have been breaking that oath for decades. In my state (Florida), you sign that oath when you register to vote:

From the Florida Voter Registration Application (PDF version):
I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will protect and defend the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of Florida, that I am qualified to register as an elector under the Constitution and laws of the State of Florida, and that all information provided in this application is true.

That's right next to the space where you have to sign the form.

I'm sure other states have a similar oath for voters. Even if there isn't an explicit oath shown on the form, ultimately, it's the job of the citizens of this country to protect ourselves and to protect our Republic and the Constitution it's based on. We the People have failed to do that. Obama is a symptom of that failure.

If We the People are unwilling to protect the Constitution, why would anyone else do it for us?

If even a fraction of active duty field-grade officers resigned their commissions over Obama’s eligibility, it would have forced the issue on the cowardly traitorous congress.

Currently there is no U.S. military. Just an armed force serving under a usurper.
