Thats nonsense, if Obama was found ineligible. His orders to deploy need not be obeyed. If fact, probably SHOULD NOT be obeyed. This is a basic cornerstone of Nurnberg. No obligation whatsoever to follow illegal orders.

And is that claim based on something other than your opinion? If so, what?

It is called the fruit of the poison tree. It is found in search and seizure issues. It’s a legal concept widely defended in our law.

Actually that legal concept has nothing to do with Lakin's situation. Link. Unless, of course, Lakin or the prosecution use illegal means to gather their evidence.

It’s rather extremist to suggest that a soldier being ordered to his possible death, cannot challenge the legitimacy of those who demand it.

Blood-thirsty hyperbole aside, you keep forgetting that the order he's charged with disobeying is his brigade commander's. Not Obama's.

It is called the fruit of the poison tree, and is not restricted to search and seizure issues. It is also found in the unenforcability of illegal contracts. IE,, you cannot sue the drug dealer for selling you oregano instead of pot.

If obama is illegal, his orders are too. But im sure Obama appreciates your efforts.

It really isn’t hyperbole to the man deploying to the war zone. And i already explained to you why that brigade commander is not the source of that order. You never convinced me that the brigade commander ALONE could launch an invasion of Mexico. Your argument is becoming circular and you appear to be immune to reason, so ill leave you and Obama to agree on your opinion.
