"DECORATED ARMY DOCTOR LTC TERRY LAKIN WAIVES PRELIMINARY HEARING AND ANNOUNCES NEW YOUTUBE VIDEO
HEARING WILL NOT PROCEED ON JUNE 11, 2010
Washington, D.C., June 9, 2010. Saying that the Army has made it impossible for me to present a defense at the Article 32 preliminary hearing previously scheduled for June 11, 2010, Lt. Colonel Terrence Lakin has officially waived cancelledthat proceeding. Therefore, the case will move inexorably on to a General Court Martial. The punishment for the charges filed against LTC Lakin carry a maximum term of four years in the penitentiary. Lakin expects the trial to be held in the early fall, but this has yet to be determined. The next step will be the formal referral of the charges by Lakins Commanding General, Major General Carla Hawley-Bowland, followed by his arraignment before a Military Judge, both of which are expected before the end of June.
Lakin, through his legal defense team, requested the testimony of Dr. Chiyome Fukino of the Hawaii Dept. of Health, and all of that agencys records that exist concerning the presidents birth. Lakin had also requested the testimony of the custodians of records of, and the records relating to Obamas admission and financial aid that exist, of the Punahou School, Occidental College, Columbia University and Harvard Law School. All these requests were also summarily denied, leaving Lakin without any ability to mount a defense at the hearing. However, in that this hearing was preliminary in nature in the first place, Lakin will renew his requests to the Military Judge at the appropriate time.
Lakin also released a new 5-minute video on Youtube explaining why he believes there are reasonable arguments that President Obama is Constitutionally ineligible to serve as Commander-in-Chief. The video can be viewed at http://www.safeguardourconstitution.com/video2.html.
The video is being released under the auspices of the American Patriot Foundation, a non-profit group incorporated in 2003 to foster appreciation and respect for the U.S. Constitution, in the one month since establishing a fund to provide a legal defense to LTC Lakin, has received generous donations from more than 1,200 separate individuals. Further details are available on the Foundations website, www.safeguardourconstitution.com. "

But he feels he did..whether we agree or not is not the issue...he believes he has. If he didn’t think so, he would not be ignoring this issue (The President that is).
Yeah, everyone should just keep their head down, say nothing, and hope 0thugga doesnt destroy the entire country and someone better is elected eventually.
Speaking up and acting on behalf of the Constitution is just so suicidal and useless. Not only should no one do it, just to be safe we should all criticize anyone who does.
Everyone here did not say the same to the brats that did this during the Bush years. I definitely didn’t but I am consistent in my thinking.
He did and he is.
and really screwing the military by his refusal to go to Iraq/Afghanistan.
He was working at a military hospital until the military told him not to show up. So just who is screwing who???
it seems to me that if someone pulled this during Bush Presidency people would not be forgiving at all.
Bush was a qualified Article II CiC -- Obama is not.
Our Kenyan President is not going to be pleased with your remarks.
I believe he will loose his case in the military courts. I believe LTC Lakin believes that as well.
I don't believe the military courts can answer weather someone born a subject to the crown of her majesty the Queen of England is a natural born citizen of the U.S.
IMO, Lakin and his civilian attorney seek to get his cause to SCOTUS for such a determination.
I'm convinced we will all have our poor choices to make in the next several years. Unfortunately, I'm feeling like a frog placed in cold water, only right now the water is no longer cold, so I don't need to jump out just yet, right? When do I get uncomfortable and jump out? Wish I knew and I hope I don't just end up as a boiled frog. For LTC Lakin, he has made his brave decision.
The difference being, there was no doubt Bush was a natural born citizen (& therefore Constitutionally eligible to be POTUS) and there is plenty of doubt that Barry is not a NBC.
Do you believe the framers intended that someone born a subject to the crown of her majesty the Queen of England should be considered a natural born citizen of the U.S.?
Barack Hussein Obama is a lawyer. What he has done with his birth records is plead the 5th! He reserves the right to not incriminate himself in a crime. Constitutionally he knows he is ineligible to be President of the United States and refuses to release the documents that would incriminate himself in a crime.
Huh? Where does Barry feel like he's offered up the proof? I believe he, himself, has never "vouched" for the ridiculous short form COLB jpeg that has been on display on the world wide web.
It is so sad that the military leaders are such political cowards. Any military judge with a pair, including women, would rule the guy can have what he needs for his defense. And sadly, if this guy goes to prison ..... he’ll be forgotten.
.
A brave man dies but once, a coward dies a thousand deaths.
Lakin is choosing high noon on main street with a loaded revolver. No sniping from windows.
Bush was a qualified Article II CiC — Obama is not.
How quickly they forget: The lefties did try to discredit Bush and he released ALL his records that were requested which goes to show that if there is nothing to hide then full disclosure is not a problem. Evidently Obama has a problem, but it's not his fault, it's Bush's Fault!
I didn’t say anything good would come of it. (except that it is another of the 1000 cuts that will bring Obama down)
He will be hurt, for us. He is basically jumping on a grenade for us, and like a grenade, he will pay a price to protect us.
And yes, probably a short sentence and bad conduct discharge. The careerist commissioned officers on “auto-suck” will make sure Obama is protected from this brave man.
He will get as much respect from our military leaders as Michael New did.
Our military has my deepest respect, but our senior military leadership only almost universally worthy of the highest contempt. All this officer will do is force other officers to identify themselves as the cowards they are.
That can only happen IF Buckwheat doesn't cancel the election(s) due to some emergency.

What would Obama and his Marxist minions have to do for you to "jump out"? Where's the line that you won't cross? ( Just wondering.) And...Yes,..I am asking a serious question. It is not rhetorical.
That line was already crossed, really, on 1/8/2009.
Uh Oh! An affirmative action hire. I wonder how many good men were passed over so she could pin her minority laurels on her chest.
By the way, why is it that women's military uniforms are so damned unattractive?
