Don’t be surprised if the government is getting ready for a court martial.......they will be compelled t o send a message.
The problem with a court martial is that doing so gives tools for compulsion to the accused. It'd be interesting if he were to subpoena the documents in question.
If there is a Court Marshall then Major Cook would get discovery of Obama’s records and birth certificate to defend himself.
Obama is not going to touch this with a ten foot pole.
They cannot court-martial him if the order has been rescinded. They would charge him under Article 92, Failure to Obey a Lawful Order and they could throw in Article 88, Contempt Toward Officials. The order has to be in effect for the elements of Article 92 to be provable in court.
By revoking the order they pulled their tail in and ran the other way.
My experience in these kinds of matters is extensive. I am sure I’m correct.
“They” don’t want a court-martial becasue they would have to disclose the President’s long form birth certificate in discovery to prove the President is the lawful CIC.
I would like to hear somebody tell me how this would work.
The military is the primary avenue through which you get a judicial determination on this issue--wouldn't surprise me if we wind up in a legal fight in the Military Justice system if they in fact have some discipline they can impose.
But if that indeed does happen, then wouldn’t the birth certificate issue have to be addressed and consequently proof of its existence?
