Please don’t take this the wrong way, but are you a veteran? I swore an oath. Now maybe it was 33 years ago that I first did that, but I don’t take oaths lightly, do you? If I saw a far-right president trampling on the constitution, I’d feel the same way. This isn’t about Mr. Obama’s ancestry, it’s about his actions and intentions.
We are supposedly a country of laws, not men, so saying “Oh, he can’t be removed, the blacks would riot” doesn’t cut it. If we learned anything from the Hitler debacle, it should have been that we can’t let anyone be above the law and able to rule by fiat.

The threat of riot by certain elements has been used to shakedown the tax payer and erode the rule of law (and the equal protection thereof) since the 70's. I'm tired of it. Follow the law, and if some folks are froggy enough to jump, so be it.
