This is just plain nuts. Lt. Col. Terry Lakin, a highly-decorated Army surgeon, with 18-years of service behind him, is willingly throwing his career and reputation away, because be believes in the birther conspiracy nonsense that President Obama is not a natural born citizen. The Army has instituted court martial proceedings against him for refusing to obey deployment orders to Afghanistan, which Lakin says are illegal orders from an illegal alien. The birther doctor appeared on CNNs Anderson Coopers 360 program Friday evening with his lawyer. And the interview soon turn heated, as Cooper attempted to inject some fact-based reality into the conversation.
Lakins lawyer Paul Jensen, obtained by the birther conspiracy groups American Patriot Foundation/Safeguard Our Constitution, continually jumped in to answer Coopers questions posed to Lakin. The basis of Jensens arguments all center on his rejection of Obamas Certificate of Live birth issued by the state of Hawaii. He contends its not proof of Obamas birth in the United States, because its merely an abstract of the original document on file. Lakin through his lawyer, is demanding to see the original document.
Jensen couldnt explain Obamas two birth notices in local Hawaii newspapers. And he refuses to accept the determination made by the Republican governor of Hawaii, who examined the original birth certificate on file, declaring it valid.
Despite all of the evidence to the contrary, Jensen falsely declared there was mounting evidence that Obama is an illegal alien.
When Cooper asked Lakin if he believes that all members of the military from Hawaii are also illegal aliens and not eligible to serve, he mumbled something about the President being required to be a natural born citizen
After Jensen continued to jump in with his birther conspiracy theories, Cooper asked: Can the colonel not talk for himself? The guys an adult.
Finally, Lakin offered a general response, explaining why he is subjecting himself to a court martial:
Its a fundamental of the Constitution, and my oath of office is to the Constitution, and I believe we need truth on this matter.
The remainder of the interview is being shown tonight. What a truly sad and pathetic spectacle.

Whether it was a legit order or not, he is depriving our troops of an experienced combat doctor when they need him. I have nothing good to say about the LTC.
Then it should be very easy to prove.. gaining him points against the naysayers..
On the otherhand.............. he might be defrocked of his holyness.. and synthetic citizenship..
Did Taitz sufficiently explain how Eric Holder managed to get from Los Angeles to Columbus, GA and back to meet with Judge Land at that coffeeshop? I thought the Air Force retired its SR-71’s.
Actually, that originally came from some witness who said he saw Eric Holder in Georgia on the day of the hearing. Holder did have the time to get to and from LA to Macon, Georgia via executive jet before he was seen in the evening on the West coast.
She's a nitwit.
What many people do not know is that Hawaii allows a foreign birth certificate to be maintained in its vaults as a vital record.
All one has to do is request the proper forms from Hawaii’s DOH.
The logic in your reply is...well, missing.
It is spelled cue.
And if they base it on a foreign birth certificate, the location on the COLB shows the foreign birth...
He is a She.
forget my previous post.
I am practicing illiteracy tonight.
Barry O. tried to pass of something that was inconsistent with what the rest of have and know to be a Birth Certificate.
The so called COLB has many flaws with it:
The best part and even more confusing is why he didn't release any of the three Birth Certificates we know already existed before 2007.
Those were most certainly BCs and not a COLB. There is no reason to create confusion but, for the fact he is hiding something. That something will be discovered, though and this is a long process. I discovered this article, folded away among my birth certificate and old vaccination forms, when I was in high school. Its a short piece, with a photograph of him. No mention is made of my mother or me, and Im left to wonder whether the omission was intentional on my fathers part, in anticipation of his long departure. Perhaps the reporter failed to ask personal questions, intimidated by my fathers imperious manner; or perhaps it was an editorial decision, not part of the simple story that they were looking for. I wonder, too, whether the omission caused a fight between my parents. From Dreams From My Father (Pg. 26 last paragraph) So with all these Birth Certificates lying around, why did he feel it necessary to produce a "Certification of Live Birth" that is inconsistent with a Birth Certificate and wholly lacking all of the information you would find, in you know, a Birth Certificate? He seemed to have some emotional attachment to the Birth Certificate found among his mothers belongings. Why wouldnt he just slap that one up, for all the world to see? It seemed important that he found a document that is called a Birth Certificate and it is highly unlikely he would not know what one looks like.
Hope no one brings up some house fire that vaporized his BC. That was in 1972 and none of the documents listed here would have been affected by that fishy event.
I fly private jets from time to time and I figure he could have absolutely made those trips, easily.
I don’t think he did but, it is easily possible though.
cute...
You are right on the money.
No Logic Needed!
Ah...so one can just write “liberal propaganda” and continue on, as you say, with “No Logic Needed!”
Fascinating...
Agitprops like missy rogers don’t care if their little mangod has lied about his citizenship, remains an Indonesian citizen, used his Indonesian citizenship to game the college entry tuition systems, etc. All they need do is sow seeds of misdirection that his citizenship as an Indonesia couldn’t cancel American citizenship. Posters like Rogers do not like America the way they perceive it and are more than onboard for ‘transforming America’ into the socialist model of their democrat party demigods and international socialist pay masters.
