The defense attorney for an officer refusing Army orders until Barack Obama documents his eligibility to be commander in chief has hinted that the president's proof of eligibility could come up during the course of the government's prosecution of his client.
"In the UCMJ (Uniform Code of Military Justice), just as you would expect, criminal defendants have the process of the court, for subpoenas and depositions under the rules that are prescribed," attorney Paul Jensen said during an interview today on the radio show of G. Gordon Liddy.
Jensen was on the program with his client, Lt. Col. Terry Lakin, who posted a YouTube video inviting his own court-martial because he believes military orders under an ineligible president are illegal, and then posted a letter telling Obama that it's up to him to provide the proof.
"I'm not going to say what we are going to do other than we are going to do what you would want us to do," Jensen said.
He specifically avoided broadcasting any specific defense strategy for the case that is developing against Lakin confirming that the officer was told in writing on Monday that he now has been "flagged" by the military and charges are expected to be filed soon.

I think you’re on to something...
The condition of “natural born birth” vis-a-vis eligibility for U. S. presidency requires that both parents be U. S. citizens.
Let the Audience be the Judge! Your judgment is highly suspect, probably almost as good as OBOZO’S! GOSH! Thaaaaaaats pretty Pathetic! EHH!
“Lt. Col. Terry Lakin is a hero in my book.”
In my book as well.
“Hemenway said the message was that “he will shortly be court-martialed for crimes (specifically, missing movement and conduct unbecoming an officer) that for others has led to lengthy imprisonment at hard labor.”
Well they said he will be court martialed and will get hard labor. Well go for it Obama. If this man is facing ANY prison then the Congress vote count and other evidence will not be enough. The Doctor will be able to get more evidence.
My guess is Obama will back down further showing he is not eligble.
I was thinking 1864; that Lincoln wasn't on any CSA state ballots, obviously, even though they were/are states.
Why did You use a Question mark? Are You so Liberal and Twisted, You cant figure out what you believe? Just asking??
Let’s see. My judgement is that this effort to see the documents comes to a dead end. Your judgement is that I’m an Obama Soros troll whose been here since Aug. 2000 just waiting for this opportunity. Okay call Jim and ask him to ban me.
Really? Well thanks for the info then!
Anyway, the point I’m trying to make is that can a major party candidate NOT run in all 50 states?
It is. AZ could very well set the table for the whole thing.
The article mentioned that his commanding officer told the LTC that he may be facing hard labor. They are saying he will be court martialed but because of discovery I bet they back down.
If they back down then we know Obama is NOT eligble. Every one of these cases just piles on more evidence to the military that this guy is an usurper.
It’s not that the military will refuse to request documents to prove eligibility, it is that is yet another case will highlight the fact that what’s-his-name once again refuses to humble himself by providing documentation of his birth including his parent’s names and their citizenship status at the time of his birth.
All in all, if he is indeed eligible, a $12 official certificate detailing the standard information would score huge points for his credibility. But at this point anyone with half a brain knows he is hiding information and furthermore one can reasonably speculate he has eligibility problems.
AMEN!! Lt ColTerry Lakin has the Courage and Convictions and Beliefs in AMERICA that the Hannitys and Limbaughs and Every Patriot can only Dream of except Our Heros in Our Great Military!
Approaching apocalypse: Will Obama documentss surface?
Attorney hints proof of eligibility will come up in officer's defense
. . . . SP prevaricator is already on the thread.
You have convinced me. We are history. (Toast). We cannot even uncover the truth by the sacrifice of a brave soldier. Legal mumbo jumbo has a chilling effect on hope for a brighter day. At the SC, the only reflective concern is the commerce clause, the other parts of the document can be rolled for the toilet.
Areo Fritto!
Then the judge is abdicating his responsibility. As the Supreme Court has. Scalia told my sister, when she asked why they hadn’t accepted any of the cases: “If the electorate don’t care about it, why should we stick our necks out?”
You’re a white flag waving defeatist eeyore.
