Only a domestic enemy would say the natural-born citizen requirement was a stupid requirement. And this oath practically guaratees a response to ignoring this requirement of the constitution:

CITE: 10 USC Sec. 502 01/03/95 EXPCITE: TITLE 10 - ARMED FORCES Subtitle A - General Military Law PART II - PERSONNEL CHAPTER 31 - ENLISTMENTS HEAD Sec. 502. Enlistment oath: who may administer STATUTE Each person enlisting in an armed force shall take the following oath: ''I, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God!" ------------------- This oath may be taken before any commissioned officer of any armed force.

The oath refers to a valid President of the United States that meets constitutional requirements.

Will Obammy put his hand on a Bible or a Quran? Or disdain the entire process?

I've been quoting this since the election. The Oath doesn't have a time limit, and the Constitution is first. Until I know that 'the One' supports the Constitution AS WRITTEN and not as he wants it, there can be no support from this old dog.

I've had been snail mailing printouts of the Constitution to Federal judges, asking them to read it in case they've forgotten what it says. Now I've started to sent it to member of the Congress with the same request. If it wakes up one of the idiots, it is a step in the right direction.

Absolutely right! My enlistment oath honor-binds me to it... and I actually look forward to kicking some “domestic enemy” ass.

Now, I’m not saying that the civil disturbance would be good; just that it would be good to DO SOMETHING with actual, tangible results.

I think that is the officer’s oath. The enlisted man’s oath is a little shorter.

When Obama was sworn in to the US Senate, he took this oath:

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God."

He is now actively engaged in subverting the Constitution that he swore to defend.

Obama is dancing around the edge of treason.
