Obama - Soldier questioning eligibility - Fox News
Saw it. Thanks!
Mainstream and viral.Finally!
‘Saw this earlier today on Drudge. I think it’s going to take a number of these lawsuits to challenge the HOPE-DOPE to either put up, or step down! Congressional Republicans don’t have the numbers, nor the desire to do it. I’d love for ZER0 to have to continue spending millions to fight these lawsuits. At some point, especially with his quickly dropping public support, people may start to take notice.
I hope this is the rip cord finally being pulled to put this nation’s survival on a parachute from this fiasco called the Obamanation.
I hope Brett Bair gives ample coverage to the relevant punitive sections of the UCMJ, which apply to soldiers who refuse to follow orders. Beginning, perhaps, with Articles 87 (Missing Movement), 88 (Contempt toward Officials) and 94 (Mutiny and sedition).
And I hope he dwells at length at the penalties associated with these violations.
It is NOT up to this soldier to decide what orders he is or is not going to follow, especially given that the deployment orders are both lawful and appropriate.

Nice thoughts..
I agree with you. I’m sure however, that this soldier feels he is doing his patriotic duty by challenging what he sees as a threat to this nation from within. I just wish that we could see concerted civil efforts to force 0bama’s hand. Enough of them, and it will be hard not to notice.

Isn’t this his whole case...if orders were given by an illegitimate Commander in Chief?
Well, his patriotic duty is do follow his orders.
Period.
What this soldier “feels” stopped being important the day he took his oath.
It certainly is up to the individual to decide. Only in a Nazi Germany would one expect otherwise.
Semper Fi
An Old Man
The man is a true patriot. Bravo!

What if it was an order to execute American civilians?
Or to fire upon Tea Party protesters?
One of the nice things about the UCMJ is that you get to defend your actions under it, it isn't a case of if you are charged, you are automatically guilty, despite what people like John Murtha have tried to ram down our throats.
I, (NAME), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States and the State of (STATE NAME) against all enemies, foreign and domestic;
One could assume he is taking his oath literally!!! Domestic enemies......... Obama is just one.
OK, so you’d defend a soldier who, say, considered Dubya the same way?
I can’t believe what I’m reading here....
I hope that the judge does NOT tell the soldier to follow orders or he will send the soldier to prison for a long time.
They hung Hitler’s Generals for just “following orders”.
