Lakin’s superior officer could. That’s who he was convicted of disobeying, not the President.

Is it your argument that washing an illegal order through another officer whose order is based on the illegal order, makes that order legal?

I have no sympathy for this guy, any more than I do for Bradley Manning. In the military, you follow your orders, with very few exceptions. Which wanting to see the President’s birth certificate is not one of.

What has made our military uniquely effective is that it encourages actual thinkers. I think this doctor went above and beyond but can understand his principled steadfastness. Either that, or he wanted to get kicked out. While military men and women are supposed to be obedient, they are also required to not follow unlawful orders - any orders from an ineligible CINC would eb unlawful orders - except the rest of the chain of command weighs a lot more than this doctor.

Is your argument that if Obama was illegitimate then every order given by any officer in the army was also illegal? Wouldn't that also mean that every order Lakin gave was illegal as well?

The answer to your question is yes, that is why Lakin had to get out. Furthermore, it makes Obozo’s and the country's past eight years a nullity. That is why this eligibility issue is such a big deal.

Obama sure issued a lot of orders. He was not a king.

Lakin didn't get out. He was court martialed, convicted, and booted out.

It's a done deal. Obama is gone and everything he did is fading into history.

That’s the key word here, as this would be one of those exceptions. The oath to defend and protect the Constitution override blind loyalty to even the President.

Well and truly said. What’s-her-face must be an Obamabot who wandered onto the wrong forum. Go away, girl.

Never forget the so called ‘republicans’ cowered in the corner and let an ineligible person reign over US... We cannot blame the lib-tards only, NO Republican that took an oath to protect and defend our Constitution took a stand. Their credibility is in no better shape than the in- our- faces, progressives.

Absolutely true, and this why I will never donate money to the RNC.

Lakin’s “superior officer” is the one who should be in prison.

No mention made here of Hillary’s pre-2008 efforts in the BC scam?

I love the irony of the prospect that Obama’s birth certificate will deny him the privilege of Real ID and ability to enter ANY Federal building. We can only hope. And change it.
