It is VERY odd that so many African papers have been stating he was born in Kenya. Articles from as far back as his campaign for the IL senate. Either he told them he was born there(he is a pathological liar) or he was and now they are trying to cover it up. I will never believe that Rahm was on safari for 3 weeks in December-January of 2008-09. He was over there bribing and shredding. I wonder how much money is being diverted there every single day to keep their mouths shut.

You will never get a straight answer as to WHY. That is THE answer. He can’t. Obama’s days are numbered but not by the ballot box. God Himself will deal with Obama. He loves His people in the United States and they are seriously beseeching Him for an answer. It will come. In an instant, Obama will be no more. It could be weather related, it could be anything. But it will happen. God doesn’t like those who spit in His face. CO

I agree. At first I wanted to see proof, unsure what I thought. The longer this goes on, the more it evolves, the more stories that emerge, the more lies and inconsistencies that occur daily, the more I am convinced something is rotten in Denmark.

“Sorry, but you can’t have members of the military deciding they can interpret The Constitution...”

How else would you expect them to be able to honor their oath to support the Constitution?
Bear in mind military officers do not swear to obey the orders of the president, they swear to defend the Constitution.

The term ‘birthers’ was invented by the progressives, libs and Obongo as* kissers. It is not something that anyone that has doubts regarding the BC wants to hear. It screams I’m from DU or Kos.

"The result of the Nuremburg trials post WWII requires Military Officers to question the illegal orders of their superiors. ( This is codifoed in the UCMJ)

The LTC agrees as well:

"Since Nuremberg, My Lai, and even Abu Ghraib more recently, the military has been taught the hard lessons of following illegal orders. Any reasonable person looking critically at the information and evidence currently in the public domain about Obama's birthplace would have questions about President Obama's claim to be a natural born citizen. I made the decision to disobey all military orders, including my deployment order to Afghanistan, in pursuit of the truth of whether President Obama can legally occupy the high post that he holds today and which entitles him to send servicemembers into harm's way. "

I really believe only SCOTUS could force this and I don’t believe they will touch the issue. It’s just my opinion. Frankly I would love to be wrong.

I pretty much agree with you. UNLESS some evidence comes to light and they have no choice. I’m not even sure they would do it then. It is the job of Congress and the odds of that are slim and none.

lol and that is exactly why he fills his town hall meetings with supporters only. Probably why he won’t hold any press conferences. He is terrified someone will ask about it.

Oh sorry. If your a so called “birther” which title I hate, I apologize. Must have read your post the wrong way. It’s getting hard to sort these out now LOL. If it wasn’t so serious it would be funny but actually there is no humour whatsoever in it. CO

I agree, I HATE the term birthers. What we really are is just people that want to know the truth. How sad and awful is all of this? CO

I condemn Obama and I condemn Lakin. I also condemn you for not having having an understanding of Duty, Honor, Country

MacArthur was insubordinate to his Commander in Chief, was he not? But he took the Consequences.

Did he not understand Duty, Honor and Country?

Any of those may require doing what he did, or what LtCol. Lakin is doing.

There is no way the SCOTUS can "dethrone" remove, or cause to be removed, the POTUS.

But they could rule that he is not, and never was eligible, and thus was never POTUS.

Only the President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States may be impeached. If he's not President, he can't be impeached. Besides which, is being ineligible Treason, Bribery, another high Crimes or Misdemeanors.

I'm being a little flippant, but it is uncharted territory. The founders neglegeted to say how someone who slips by, but is discovered to have been ineligible, is removed.

It doesn't bother you that he's organized a legal defense fund without having been charged with anything? What happens to all that money if the Army merely retires him or rescinds the order? Are you going to expect him to send you a refund?

No, I will not expect him to return the money. I trust that he is an honest man and will figure out some honest thing to do with it if he doesn't need it. And if I'm wrong, well, I've wasted $20 before.

The Supreme court is not a trier of fact, it is a Judicial Review Court. They apply the Constitution to the judgements of lower courts. When, not if, the case gets ajudicated, you can be sure that the USSC will review the lower courts decision. This case is a Constitutional Crisis, and in the end, not be ignored.

Obama’s eligibilty should have examined at the party level, the state level, the electoral college level, and finally in the senate and in the Congress. The system failed at each of these levels in a rush to elect the first Black US President. In reality, he is merely our first communist/international socialist President elected under the cover of his race.......

We are left with 2 legal recourses. Challanging Obama’s right to be the CIC by military personel, or
persuing a Quo Warrento Suit in the DC District Court.

In either case it will be a hard fought challenge..... especially given that the Left will scream “Racism” at any challenge/success, incite race riots, and thereby set back race relations for decades, if not for the rest of the century....

It is a battle that must be fought, if we are to have any faith in, or reliance upon the Social Contract we call the US Constitution.....

She is a repulsive pig.

Aw, she's really not that bad looking. It's just all that ugly on inside bleeding through the exterior.
