Full Headline:

Army to 'inquire' into charges against Lakin Will seek 'disposition … in the interest of justice and discipline'

From the article:

Today, Army spokesman Chuck Dasey told WND via e-mail that the charges were "preferred" by the Medical Center Brigade Headquarters company commander.

The charges then were forwarded to the acting Medical Center Brigade commander, who directed the appointment of an Article 32 pretrial investigation "to inquire into the truth of the matters set forth in the charges and to secure information to determine what disposition should be made of the case in the interest of justice and discipline," Dasey wrote.

He said the investigation will be scheduled when the investigating officer gets the orders.

What does this mean? Does this mean they (Army) are possibly backing off the charges against Lakin?

...so far Obama has been successful in stonewalling these challenges...but they keep coming...and eventually one of them will turn into this era’s version of Watergate...mark my words, there’s a reporter out there somewhere that wants a Pulitzer...there’s a judge that wants to be famous...there’s a lawyer that wants to be a crusader...it’s gonna happen sooner or later.

Please God, hear my prayers. I pray that there is enough decent American and honorable men in high enough ranks to stand with Lt. Lakin in this. I pray they find it uncomfortable if not downright frightening that questioning a leader’s valid and legitimate right to order a soldier to war is met with punishment. I pray that someone, somewhere, stands up to the man who is not concerning himself in the least with the rules of engagement that is getting our men and women killed in record numbers while engaging in surrender talks with the Taliban.

In Jesus name, I pray.

I’ve always had 60% skepticism that this ‘Birth Certificate’ charge was valid. Now I have 60% skepticism that the charge is ‘not valid’.

I predict that this charge will again re-insert itself into the 2012 elections, and after ZERO having burnt his Messiah masquerade from his thuggish antics these past two years, will not have the fool’s shield to keep this charge from sticking this next time around.

The U.S. Army says it will "inquire" into the "truth" ... and "determine what disposition should be made of the case in the interest of justice and discipline."

Well -- this will be interesting.

Will they dispose of the "truth" in order to get there or will they require the "truth" from all parties who took an oath to uphold the Constitution, including themselves, and follow that "truth" to its logical though perhaps unpleasant destination???

Thank you, Lt. Col. Terry Lakin, for your patriotism, for living up to the letter and spirit of the oath and for being an example of doing the right thing regardless of the price you have to pay. Someone had to do what you are doing.

Sarah Hawaii Birth Cert

For God's sake, is there not one journalist out there that can call Obama on his stubborn refusal to keep secret what hospital he was born in?

ANYONE? What a bunch of cowards! At least Col Lakin has the character to do what every media outlet should have done back in '07/'08.

This is not the Army of even five years ago. It is so riddled with political correctness, defeatism and apathy that it is only a matter of time before there is big trouble. All of its senior officers are either cowed by Obama or more interested in their careers than the well being of the country.

If you donated $100 to Lt. Lakin's defense fund, you'd get a receipt that looks something like this:

If you can't afford that much, you can share in my donation or help me donate more by getting a Tshirt...

Do you have proper Tea Party attire?:
