He sought advice and confirmation of Barry's eligibility and his orders being lawful from:
* legal assistance at Aberdeen Proving Grounds - Result = Ignored him
* his commander and supervisor - Who acknowledge there IS an issue. - Result = They don't know what to do
* Submits Article 138 complaint to his company commander - Result = they tell him his Article 138 complaint was deficient, so the Army didn’t have to answer it.
* LTC Lakin then writes letters to his congressional "representation" - Result = 1 Senator ignores him, the other say's the issue was "twittered" and therefore resolved and his Congressman forwards this issue to military affairs but apparently doesn't get answers to Lakin's questions and concerns.
* After being transferred to the Pentagon, he raised the issue with his clinic’s commander - Result = Commander acknowledges there IS an issue BUT had no guidance as to what to do.
* LTC Lakin then submitted another Article 138 complaint, this one routed through General Casey - Result = General Casey wasn’t in his chain of command, so his Article 138 complaint wouldn’t be addressed.
* LTC Lakin then goes to Capitol Hill for face-to-face meetings with one Congressman and high-level staffers. They acknowledge there IS an issue BUT but the media ridiculed it. Result = they let it go.

Well, now, doesn't that tell you the country is being run by a bunch of pusbags with microphones and word processors?
It's time to shut these barfbags down to one senate term or two House terms (max two terms total, combined-one of each) so they think a little more about doing their job rather than what the damned media say. Let their constituents vote on whether they get retirement bennies after their term. If they CAN'T run for re-election, who cares what the media spit out?
When you see that kind Kangaroo trial and the ignorance of the military brazz, the folks in Congress and now the court system plus FINOs, you have to really wonder, if you should praise or condemn the Wikileak Julian Assange???
BHO...mmmmmm...mmmmm...mmmmm!!!
This has become very simple.
TheZero, the illegal CIC, has just used the legal system to hide his lies.
A Kangaroo court answers NOTHING.
In fact, a kangaroo court PROVES THAT ZERO IS ILLEGAL.
No other explanation is required.
Then he refused to obey the lawful orders of three of his superior officers and refused to report to duty in Kentucky as ordered. And the rest is history.
