Press Release: Army Refers Charges Against Lakin To Court Martial
Safeguard Our Constitution ^ | August 2, 2010 | Margaret Hemenway

Posted on 08/02/2010 5:29:53 AM PDT by captjanaway

Washington, D.C., August 2, 2010. The Army has now referred charges against LTC Terrence Lakin for a General Court Martial. This action triggered the appointment of a Military Judge to preside over the trial, which will likely be scheduled before October, and held in Washington, D.C. at Ft. McNair.

On August 6, 2010 at Ft. McNair in Washington, D.C., the court will convene for the purpose of Judge Lind taking Lakin’s plea to the charges which consist of “missing movement” and of refusing to obey orders. Today Lakin stated: “I am not guilty of these charges, and will plead ‘not guilty’ to them because of my conviction that our Commander-in-Chief may be ineligible under the United States Constitution to serve in that highest of all offices. The truth matters. The Constitution matters. If President Obama is a natural born citizen then the American people deserve to see proof, and if he is not, then I believe the orders in this case were illegal.” If convicted, Lakin faces up to four years at hard labor in a federal penitentiary.

You might remember 1LT Easterling, who was assigned to Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 3d Sustainment Command (Expeditionary) in the Support Operations Division.

1LT Easterling had some questions of his own - yet it is instructive to see his current standing - which is quoted below.

------------------------------

After this incident and subsequent investigation and action, 1LT Easterling was not involved in any other incidents.

As a result, his supervisors recommended him for promotion on his officer evaluation report.

What is interesting to me is that the same ole tired Obama defenders come to every thread concerning the BC. You guys seem to have alot invested in arguing with anyone who questions Obama’s nativity story. Why do you bother, if you think it is so stupid? For instance, I happen to think the 911 truthers are ‘way out there’, but I haven’t made it my life mission to run around the internet rebutting their claims or questions on forums.

It’s the fact that so many of you seem so concerned with ‘protecting’ Obama and his nativity story that makes you appear to be Obots. Any objective person can look at the many things surrounding this whole issue and tell something doesn’t add up here, but you guys never question the stuff. You just spit out the talking points of the Obots over and over again. We’re not buying it ‘hook, line, and sinker’..so why don’t you just play in another sandbox?

Sir,

What evidence do you offer that would allow me to differentiate “going around the bend” from “being a well disciplined stalking horse in a highly formalized kabuki dance”?

It appears to me that his disciplined bearing in this matter would favor the later possibility, however I am very open to any example you might offer to support the former and exclude the later.

It is obvious to me that every single ‘point’ you make is stolen right off of the OBOT websites.A quick google proves it. You are spinning the same set of obot talking points over and over again.

Bottom line...Obama is hiding something and it’s obviously something big. It is also obvious that his BC is most likely one of the things that have been redacted from this FOIA document dump concerning his mother’s passports. The authorities were asking for proof of her son’s citizenship and status. I have my doubts about this letter you and the Obots have zeroed in on. It seems out of place and has no supporting evidence of fact.

Remember...the truth always rises to the surface. Make sure you are prepared to open your eyes to the truth when the time comes.


OK, i’ll try to remember all those things.
In the meantime, I’d be interested in why you think it is that the Republican National Committee hann’t sued Obama on eligibility issues and why neither John McCain nor Sarah Palin has joined any of the eligibility lawsuits; and why none of the leading conservative constitutional law firms have represented any of the plaintiffs in Obama elibilibity lawsuits and why the Republican Governor of Hawaii keeps defending Obama’s birth in Honolulu and finally why the Supreme Court which still has a conservative majority isn;t interested in this issue. Are all those entities ‘Obots” too?

I think that he is a dumbass. I have no evidence to back this up. Maybe you guys will all chip in for his lost retirement pay when he is convicted.

This thread has been taken totally off subject of the Court Martial of Lakin. What the status of Obama’s NBC most likely will never enter into the proceedings. Lakin will be judged on the merits of the two charges. JMO and others will differ. But we won’t have very long to see what happens.

Of course jamese buddy. Make perfect sense. Clause 5 is really clause 4, and clause 10 is really clause 9. That’s great. Excellent point. The Constitution on display in the nations capital, or reprinted on the house.gov and senate.gov sites have it all wrong. When do you get nominated for SCOTUS jamese?


So its your contention that when a clause of the Constitution is rendered moot by an amendment, that moot clause remains in the Constitution for numbering purposes. OK, I can live with that, but some judges and courts have seen it differently.
However to be perfectly true to the Founding Fathers, they did not number the clauses/paragraphs in the original document.

Judge Robertson, however, apparently felt that Obama’s Factcheck and his other prefabricating sites on the internet were equally valid sources of information for his decision.


Good grounds for an appeal. Its easy enough to have the state of Hawaii confirm or deny the place of birth and date of birth on the scanned images of Obama COLBs that have appeared on the internet.
And again, if any court really needs to see the original, long form, vault copy of Obama’s birth certificate, they can subpoena it but no court has, to my knowledge.

Why don’t you just stick to the original post and stop trying to spin off into other areas? I am not playing your game. Why do you think that Obama’s BC is missing from this most recent document dump, when it is clear that the authorities were asking for ‘documentation’ on his status and citizenship per page #40?

And why do you spend your time defending Obama’s nativity story all over the internet?

That would be because it is the law. From the FBI’s website on FOIA requests:

“If your request is for information about another living person, that information is usually not disclosed unless you have obtained the person’s written consent or unless public disclosure is authorized by law. Requests for information about another living person should be accompanied by evidence of the subject's consent. Please use U.S. Department of Justice Certification of Identity Form DOJ-361 and complete the section identified as: Authorization to Release Information to Another Person. You may submit an attachment listing additional information that may aid in locating responsive records. Please place your name and contact information on the attachment.”

FOIA works on the Mom only because she is dead. So even if Obama’s birth certificate was in her record, which it may very well not have been, it couldn't be released without his consent, which you, the requestor, have to obtain.

Sure, I’ll be happy to stick to the subject (which is Lt. Colonel Lakin’s Court Martial, by the way!)

The reason that Barack Obama’s birth certificate is not included is because birth certificates are not federal documents, they are state documents and Mr. Strunk’s was a federal, US Department of State Freedom of Information Act Request. Also birth certificates are covered under privacy provisions of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
I spend time defending the Obama nativity story all over the internet because I am fascinated by the issue, so fascinated that its the topic of a Master’s Degree thesis that I am writing and even more importantly I hate to see nice people such as yourself making complete and total fools of themselves and being used as unwitting dupes by Barack Hussein Obama II.
Its not good to suffer from Obama Derangement Syndrome when there is a treatment and a cure.

Then maybe, you should quickly get yourself into the emergency room because I hate to see nice people such as yourself making complete and total fools of themselves and being used as unwitting dupes by Barack Hussein Obama II.

Sir,

I hate to be a pest but because this line of inquiry is so central to my premise, I would like to ask you again:

Where do you think the appeal will be heard?

Who do you believe will represent him on appeal?

Huck

Not sure exactly what you are asking, but here is a summary primer on military appeals:

http://www.armfor.uscourts.gov/AppellateRev.htm

I think Lakin will have a tougher time maneuvering this into venue of appeal he wants than most of his supporters suspect. I kind of agree with others that he's pretty much toast.

I don't know who would represent him, but I think he needs better than what he's got.

You are too tired and too old and not a Conservative to understand that this issue is NOT going away!

Everyday new hidden information is raising up to the surface!!

You just wish it will go away so that you don't need to pursue your talking points you are getting!!!

Your concern for my reputation is touching....lol! What a joke. You are doing a master’s thesis on the BC issue? Oh..please do tell..in what area of study are you earning a master’s degree? Do you plan on developing a ‘thesis’ on why Obama is hiding so much information about his past and why there are so many inconsistencies and out right lies in his narrative?

Good luck with that one.
