This guy should be court martialed. It is not his personal call as to whether todeploy or not.

Now, because of his jackassery, someone else just got pulled into a last minute deployment or else his unit is going into a war zone a man down.

Selfish to say the least.

This story is now on Drudge, NY Daily News, and MSNBC. The lamestream media is actually giving some attention to this story.

Sometimes, in life, you just have to take a stand.

More power to him.

You are full of CRAP.

The man has already served in Afganistan.
He is sacrificing himself.
The ultimate act of bravery.

He takes an Oath and expects it to mean something. He is protecting and defending the Constitution. Obama should have produced the required documentation. Constitutional Scholar my a$$.

If obama was a European, they would be dismantling the Honolulu Records office brick by brick to find the documentation needed to bring this whole controversy to an end.

But as we are seeing, "black" trumps the Constitution, Citizenship, Honesty, Integrity, and America.

I know, let's destroy our land of freedom and make it just like Africa....yeah...that's the ticket /sarc

Get a clue. The military is being ground up in Iraq and Afghan because of O’s Rules of Engagement plus the Muslim Brotherhood moles in the govt leaking intel back to Al Qeada and the Taliban. DO a little reading and maybe figure what the h*ll is going on. Do you know who the MB is?

Someone needs to ask Obama if his narcissism is worth the honor and sacrifice of one soldier's career.

Interesting way of putting it while leaving themselves some wiggle room...:^)

He has a simple request that can be met without question. What is so hard about this.

Because of the immense lack of transparency regarding uhbama’s history, the HUGE question of where the money came from to get him into Columbia and Harvard, the question of who ORDERED the Chicago Law School to hire him even AFTER his resume had been solidly rejected, the question of where the money came for him to buy a 1.8 million dollar house next to Farrukan’s and down the street from billy ayers in Chicago, and on and on and on....(like the secrecy of exactly WHAT he taught ACORN protestors and agitators to engage in)...well....this good soldier has very good reason to take a stand. I pray we are not now a nation of sissy’s and that no one with the money and the power of the pen will help him out. The information this soldier is REQUESTING IS CONSTITUTIONAL IN NATURE. Thank GOD someone understands this.

True, but they are deliberately confusing the issue, which is that Resident Obama is NOT a Natural Born Citizen.

It’s not selfish; it’s brave. This guy is doing this for ALL of our military & all Americans. He knew this would bring on a court martial and he hoped it would.

I’m praying for him and his family. He knows nØbama is hiding a past not congruent with a President. LtCol Lakin deserves ALL our prayers for success.

The 18-year veteran came out in support of the largely discredited conspiracy theorists . . .

Largely discredited by the enemedia but not by the incovenient little fact that Obozo has spent millions fighting the lawsuits rather than $10 or so to produce a long form COLB. Why would that be?

He has served his country loyally for almost 20 years, including time in Afghanistan. He is now risking everything. I’d call that pretty brave. He is more concerned about his country and his fellow troops—whose lives Obama is playing political games with, what with his killing ROEs and his refusal to win against our enemies.

I don’t know what the hell “largely discredited conspiracy theorists” is supposed to mean—discredited how?—but at least the question of Obama’s birth is now starting to get into the mainstream media again. So this brave volunteer has already accomplished something.

Let’s hope that truth and justice prevail. Show us your birth certificate, Obama. What Constitutional right do you have to lead our troops, you Communist-Muslim-Kenyan liar?

Fine. Court Martial and allow discovery. He’ll be hailed as a hero for getting rid of your fraudulent POS polluting the WH.

the largely discredited conspiracy

I don' thin' so.

All I see is more evidence piling up that Obama is not eligible to be president. His wife, his sister, his grandmother, the politicians in Kenya, NPR, and a paper in Nigeria have all stated that he was born in Africa.

And, on the other side of the ledger, we have only Barack Obama's word that he was born in Hawaii. No one else seems to know anything about it.

And even if he WAS, he is still not a Natural Born Citizen and the game is over even before the issue of the birth certificate arises.
