Col. Lakin has a very specific demand that is quite easy to understand and sympathize with.

Captain Huet-Vaughan had a simple demand as well - a congressional declaration of war legitimizing the conflict.

Unlike Dr. Huet-Vaughn this is a specific clear cut issue that Obama would like to go away.

The Army takes a dim view of people who refuse to obey orders. Be it Terry Lakin, Yolanda Huet-Vaughan, Ehren Watada, or Michael New. All felt that they were better judges of what constituted a lawful order and what did not. All wound up being wrong.

It is more than a little strange that you mention only leftist pawn soldiers from previous times but none who have brought up Obama's eligibility problems. Why don't you give us the details on what has happened to them? A slap on the wrist? Being black balled by their civilian employer who had defense contracts? And then the discharges? What about the Court Martials? These situation have actual relevance to what is going to happen to Col. Lakin. He is not the first to challenge Obama, just the highest ranking and the biggest threat. You have a very selective memory. You also seem to be incapable of acknowledging that times and circumstances change. Because of this your predictions are nearly meaningless.
