HIGHLY-DECORATED FLIGHT SURGEON HAS REFUSED ALL ORDERS UNTIL OBAMA PROVES HIS ELIGIBILITY ... MRS. RONDEAU: Thank you for agreeing to an interview at such short notice, Mrs. Hemenway. I’ve read the website set up for Lt. Col. Lakin, and I know he had contacted his senators and representative before deciding to stop following orders. What response did he get from his chain of command, and specifically, from General George Casey? MRS. HEMENWAY: He made an Article 138 inquiry, and the letter that came back said something like “No one in the Department of Defense,” and this was to include General George Casey, “can answer this question, and you lack standing.” So that was obviously not a satisfactory answer. Lt. Col. Lakin did reach out often to coworkers and superiors struggling with this issue and tried to get help with it. I worked at the Pentagon for five years, and it is extremely disappointing that our military leadership knows that other officers have done this, that other officers have been involved in a lawsuit, and ...

But, you all know,
That if you question the Zer0 and his past, you will be labelled a racist.
Never look into the past of a poseur, unless you want “racist” embroidered on your forehead!
Well, this isn't really something to laugh at like Orly. She's just an obvious clown. Here you have a guy who, so far as we know, has served his country honorably for a number of years. Now it looks like he's liable to wind up throwing all that away in pointless gesture we think is misguided to begin with. It's just sad. Forget Obama. I wish the LTC would reconsider for his own sake.
Crocodile tears.
And that oath that he took to "support and defend the Constitution against enemies, both foreign and domestic..."?
What was that? Just words?
Some people actually have the courage to stand up to evil, despite the danger to themselves because it's the right thing to do. It's called personal integrity, and the LtC has it in spades.
All Obama has to do to end all the speculation is produce a $12 document that he can have at any time, but he'd rather ruin the career of a patriot warrior to keep it secret.
If Obama is what he claims to be, he would have put this controversy behind him when it first started. But, he can't prove that he's eligible to hold the office. This is proven by the fact that he's now endured this charge for a full 15 months without putting an end to it. Therefore, he is NOT what he claims to be, and is an illegal usurper of our presidency.
The LtC will win this, even if it costs him his career.
Don’t waist your time, this guy is a short time single issue poster. Check his posting history, he is a fraud just like obumber.
Well, we get all kinds in here, from real agents of the left, to under-informed newbies. Hopefully, he's simply in the latter category.
Absolutely!!! This soldier's stellar 18 year military career is already etched in history and nothing can diminish or erase that.
This final mission that he is undertaking for the sake of his fellow soldiers and the country at large is the capstone of that career that puts his superiors who took the same oath as he did to open shame.
And the Bush appointed.
And the Reagan appointed.
And the GWB appointed.
See any pattern there?
Maybe there’s like some basis in law or something?
Indeed, he is putting the entire senior command structure to shame.
Too few people appreciate the fact that the colonial belligerents who became the Army of the Potomac weren't all that popular with the average citizens of the day.
They were revered, and their names etched in stone after they defeated the British Army, and secured liberty for every American, but prior to them doing so, many looked on them as crazies, if not outright traitors.
Likewise, the LtC is taking a stand that is righteous, but not necessarily popular.
I assume you meen islamabama is backed into a corner.
I think this guy’s orders will be rescinded and he’ll be discharged with full retirement pay. What else can the government do besides kidnap him and give him a lobotomy. And I wouldn’t put that past Rahm.
Sadly, I think you’re probably right.
The only way Obama’s going to be forced to do this is if enough people in the military call his bluff. When there are no doctors to send to Afghanistan because they all refuse orders the issue will get the attention it deserves. Of course, in that scenario the people who get screwed are our soliders - Obama’s human shields to bribe honorable men and women to tolerate his kidnapping of the country. Sigh.
He’s in the first category. People who are under-informed noobs don’t mind learning and have open minds to truth. People who are hardcore leftists immediately jump in slamming “birthers’ and keep repeating the same crap over and over again no matter how many times they are proved wrong.
I'll keep my eyes peeled, in that case.
He’s a one note Johnny.

Then no one needs to flush their military career down the toilet.
Just realize that even a complete disclosure of BHO’s vital records won't shut anybody up if the records do not contain the information that they think it does or choudl contain.
He just "doesn't feel like it", - well, that's not a viable reason.
Actually, you're just seeing a reflection of your own inner venom. I was in the service, and I absolutely do have sympathy for what's likely going to happen to Lakin. That he has brought it upon himself for a cause I think is misguided doesn't lessen that sympathy.
What is so interesting about it?? These are things being debated already, just not in a court of law.
The level of comfort you people have with your uninformed delusions never ceases to amaze. I've been called a lot of things in my life, but hardcore leftist has never been one of them and, quite frankly, never will be outside of these peculiar threads.
At the beginning of the last 677 days that Obama's original birth certificate has been held hostage, faithers and sand heads told us Obama was playing a joke on skeptics and that he would release his real BC any day and embarrass everybody by proving his alleged COLB was real. Well, that never happened. Meanwhile, he has left the Hawaii Department of Health hanging in the lurch trying to cover for him. Is it a joke on them too??
Let's recall that only a few days ago, Obama didn't hesitate to release a tax return showing income of more than $5 million. Why let that go but not a simple birth certificate?? If his birth certificate exonerates him, wouldn't it be expedient to release it ... if nothing else, to relieve the DOH from their burden?? After all, they felt so stressed and distressed that they asked their own state lawmakers to change their disclosure laws. Is it honorable for Obama to keep his original birth certificate in hiding?? Full disclosure would stop all the requests the DOH is getting. Why not do it for them??
