A true (currently deployed) Patriot!
"Officer Easterling's consent form as Active military officer deployed with the US military in Iraq joins legal action by Dr. Orly Taitz, ESQ to unseal vital records of Barack Hussein Obama, AKA Barry Soetoro.
To Any and All Interested Parties,
As an active-duty Officer in the United States Army, I have grave concerns about the constitutional eligibilty of Barack Hussein Obama to hold the Office of President of The United States. He has absolutely refused to provide to the American public his original birth certificate, as well as other documents which may prove or disprove his eligibility. In fact, he has fought every attempt made by concerned citizens in their effort to force him to do so.
Until Mr. Obama releases a "vault copy" of his original birth certificate for public review, I will consider him neither my Commander in Chief nor my President, but rather, a usurper to the Office - an impostor.
My conviction is such that I am compelled to join Dr. Orly Taitz's lawsuit, as a plaintiff, against Mr. Obama. As a citizen, it pains me to do this, but as an Offficer, my sworn oath to support and defend our Constitution requires this action.
I joined the Army at age 40, after working in Iraq as a contractor with KBR in '05/'06. I chose to work with KBR to support my troops and then left that lucrative position when the Army raised it's maximum enlistment age to 40. Upon completion of Basic Training, I entered Officer Candidate School and commissioned as a 2LT in August 2007. After completing the subsequent Basic Officer Leadership courses, I was assigned to Ft. Knox and shortly therafter deployed to Balad, Iraq. I was promoted to 1LT on Feb. 2, 2009 and I have approximately five months remaining of our fifteen month deployment.
I implore all Service-members and citizens to contact their Senators and Representatives and demand that they require Mr. Obama prove his eligibility. Our Constitution and our great nation must not be allowed to be disgraced.
Very Respectfull,
Scott R. Easterling
1LT OD/LG
United States Army

FORGET IT, WILL YA?
” What good is a Constitution if it’s not adhered to by the opposition to the government?”
In times like these the Constitution is all that the opposition to POTUS has got.
As I see it, the Constitution is a multi-lateral Contract among all of We the People.
If we don’t want to abide by the Constitution then we can get the hell out of the USA and that goes for me, you or bo!
Last time I am responding to you and you don’t need to respond back DUmmie rat. I didn’t advocate anything. I stated it was my opinion that it could occur. So stop trying to twist things around. Most people here know exactly what you’re up to and that you are in the tank for that POS. Next time, ignore my comments. I will do that same. DO NOT repsond to me, PERIOD!
That, of course, remains to be seen.
I would say, can't you see? Lt. Easterling clearly believes that it would unlawful for him to follow Barry's orders. Therefore, he's suing for clarification. It's obviously his opinion, his choice as well as Dr. Taitz' choice to follow this path. Time will tell.
Court martials can be appealed. But they are not going to court martial him for joining a lawsuit.
Now if he speaks contemptuously of the President, or the Usurper, whichever he actually is, for that they can convene a Court Martial.
Of course the defense in a court martial should be able to subpoena witnesses and documents, just as the defense in any other trial can, if the Judge allows it.
Too bad he's not MI. He might *know* things the rest of us can only surmise.
And that is a BIG if, in this case, alas.
Officers don't re-enlist. Rather than having to take action to stay in, they must take action to "get out". He's almost certainly holds a reserve commission. He could apply for release from active duty, or he could resign his commission. However since he was only commissioned about two years ago, he likely had a few more years left on his active duty obligation.
There is one other route out, well two really. He can be passed over, twice, for promotion (although normally *highly* unlikely for promotion from 1LT to CAPT). or he could be RIFed. There will be a RIF, sooner rather than later I suspect.
The man is a 42 y/o 1st LT, with little or no prior enlisted service. He didn't have much future anyway, in the Army that is.
OER, Officer Evaluation Report
what government? his proof of eligibility is where?
NO it's not.
Section. 3. Treason against the United States shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.
Art. III, Section 3, Constitution for the United States.
Mutiny it might be, but it is not treason.
Absolutely! I'm sure Barry's team of lawyers would LOVE that! Oh the irony. That is, until we devolve more into something like a police state.
b.t.w. are you sure they will be combined? that would be one asumption...sure. but i'm able to find nothing that indicates the military and civilian plantiff's will indeed be one complaint. my guess is that Dr. Taitz is receiving help on these matters, probably from groups or firms no less.
“That, of course, remains to be seen.”
No, to the contrary, it has been that way for 206 years and SCOTUS is NOT going to change a 206 year old precedent.
Lt. Easterling was indiscreet in his statement.
IMHO, it is ok to ask for clarification, to suggest that questions regarding BO’s eligibility have been raised but Easterling went way beyond that and made conclusive statements that he is in no position to make.
Now, I could say that I have no doubt but that BO is a Islamo-Marxist-illegal-alien-thug but I would not put that in a legal pleading.
It is more than an assumption. Of course, Orly can alwasys change her mind. I hope see does.
Promises, promises.
I stated it was my opinion that it could occur. So stop trying to twist things around.
Spoken from your vast experience in the military no doubt.</sarcasm>
