I liked his near last paragraph. Well written but still agree with NS.
The colonel will be charged with violating a direct superior command and that will be the end of it.
I don’t like it and think he should be able to sue Barry O. for that F-ing fake day pass, he passed off as a BC(It ain’t and he has a long form he found among his mother’s belongins, which he mused about in “Dreams of My Father”, ghost written Bill Ayers)
But at the end of the day, he isn’t going to get anywhere near Barry O’s Presidency.
Not necessarily. If this LTC is successful at introducing evidence that Obama's deployment orders were unlawful becuase he is an usurper, I would highly suspect Obama would be the one going down.
“The colonel will be charged with violating a direct superior command and that will be the end of it.”
IF he bases his defense upon the basis that his refusal being the result of an inproper authority (AKA POTUS Obama) then producing the BC could be an issue for that defense. IF a military judge rules the need for a BC to be invalid....then I think his conviction would not stand up upon review. It really comes down to what the convening authority does in regards to a military judge. Military courts are not as fixed a thing as civialan ones are. The board of officers making up the court will be equal to or greater in rank than LTC. So, that will tend to be more conservative officers that may not be so prone to knee jerk convict this Army doctor.
Personally, I think there will never be a trial. They will let him serve until he has his 20 years for retirement and then not allow him to stay in any longer. As long as the good Doctor is very careful not to make derogulatory remarks about the POTUS, other than he doubts the man’s constitutional authority to be POTUS, then they can’t get him for Conduct Unbecoming. The ultimate charge would be failure to obey a lawful order. They won’t dare use this charge because then the BC is very material to getting a conviction or proving the LTCs innocence.
Like I said, I don’t think it will make it to trial.
Even if you are correct, if lots and lots of those in miliatry service did the same thing, more and more are going to hear and learn about it, and more and more will queation 0bama - who and what he is, his past, his citizenship status and so on.
It will be good even if it goes nowhere, and at this point no one can see the future.
