What do you say to the first military guy who disobeys orders under President Palin because he doesn’t think she is really the CIC ?

There is a problem with lawlessness...it leads to mob rule

It is not the job of NCOs to determine who is eligible to be President. All 50 states accept him as such, the Congress accepts him as such (all 535 members - there were no objections made) and the US Supreme Court accepts him as such.

If someone has PROOF he was born in Kenya, it would be a whole different ballgame. Until then, the military needs to accept civilian rule - and all 3 branches of the government and all 50 states accept that Obama is President.

The so-called ‘eligibility’ question is so irrelevant, at this remove ... The time to address it expired with the election. From then on, the issue resided solely with the Congress and they refused to even take it up.

Lawless service members immolating themselves so uselessly ( a la Lakin and this one ) while they may inspire SOME to admiration, are hardly acting in the best interests of ANYONE — themselves, their families, their Services, their Country.

In the end, these individuals may garner a lot of attention and emotional or sentimental admiration, but their actions do NOTHING to further any worthwhile cause.

Another responder used the term ‘attention whore’. I’d second that sentiment.

There is no ‘win’ for anybody in prolonging this ‘eligibility’ nonsense. The time to act was BEFORE Imam Hussein was elected. Now, our only recourse, barring a sudden eruption of ‘due diligence’ on the part of a ‘do-nothing helpful’ Congress, is to assure the Imam doesn’t get yet another term.

You are, unfortunately, wrong. If Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, Ben Franklin and the others had just "obeyed the law" there wouldn't have been all that lawlessness. But then we wouldn't have a republic today, we'd still be a bunch of colonies.

Get it?
