Judge to Lakin: Find another defense Rules that officer challenging Obama's eligibility can't see evidence FT. MEADE, Md. A career officer in the U.S. Army acting as a judge in the prosecution of Lt. Col. Terrence Lakin today ruled that the military is no place for Barak Obama's presidential eligibility to be evaluated.
Army Col. Denise R. Lind today ruled in a hearing regarding the evidence to be allowed in the scheduled October court-martial of Lakin that he will be denied access to any of Obama's records as well as any testimony from those who may have access to the records.
With her decision, Lind mirrored a number of federal judges who have ruled on civil lawsuits over Obama's eligibility. They have without exception denied the plaintiffs' access to any requested documentation regarding the president's eligibility.
Lind ruled that it was "not relevant" for the military to be considering such claims, that the laws allegedly violated by Lakin were legitimate on their face and that the chain of command led up to the Pentagon, and that should have been sufficient for Lakin.

This is insanity. This country is now upside down. damn the anti-constitutionalist.
The more often this happens, the more it looks like a conspiracy.
The government’s position is that no citizen has standing, under apparently any circumstances, to question the President.
This is not un-Constituional. It is anti-Constitutional. Against the whole concept.
“Lind ruled that it was “not relevant” for the military to be considering such claims”
Wow
The military has no valid reason for questioning the authority of it’s commander?
So, if we elect an alien from Mars then the military has to obey without question.
We are truly living in “Alice in Wonderland”.
"Embarrasment" shouldn't even be concern in court (and why would the president be embarrassed unless he's a liar)...and Lakin isn't calling for impeachment, he is simply calling for proof!
I'll bet the judge is a bigtime, Koolade-drinking Obama supporter!
This judge wants to keep her job, by staying alive.
This judge wants to be a general.
The only defense to a court martial hearing on refusing to obey an order (other than whether the order is legitimate and whether Lakin received and understood the order- neither of which is an issue here, the military can order a soldier to get on a plane so the order is legit, and Lakin knew and understood the order) is Lakin’s LEGAL incapacity to obey the order. Incapacity is strictly defined by law. For example, if he was hospitalized or in jail, he could not get to the flight. In such case, he would not be legally capable of following the order.
The issues in this matter are narrowly defined and the outcome, while tragic for Lakin, is not a surprise.
maybe the legal course that needs to proceed is a military officer suing Congress, the Electors or any other federal officials who inaugurated and thus appointed obama as potus without proper proof of his constitutional eligibilty to hold the office.
Let’s call in Pelosi et al to certify their diligence in ascertaining obama’s eligibilty.
“... that no citizen has standing...”
Would citizens have had standing if this was a Republican with all of Obama’s issues swirling around him? It does look like an organized conspiracy to prevent any discovery of negative evidence against the Chosen One. It has been going on as long as the Chosen One won (stole) the election. It seems like avery judge, in every court, is in on it. How can all of the cases against the Chosen One be summarily tossed out because the plaintiff “doesn’t have standing”. It begs the question who and what constitutes standing?
Does anyone think that if this was George Bush, any and all cases seeking discovery of evidence against him would have been treated the same way those agains the Chosen One has been? I doubt that they would have. All of THE 1’s records must be so damning that release of them would topple this well orchestrated fraud. there are far too many people involved and they would all go to prison for their part in this fraud. And I would put the judges that has prevented all those cases from going forward in prison too. They have been willful participants in this fraud.
Of course its insane.
A distinuished military officer calls into question the legitimacy of the individual giving him orders - something I think we striaghtened out as acceptable at Nuremberg.
If that is NOT a valid question, suppose Obama decided to remain in office and block the electoral process?? Would this judge feel that the military is still obligated to obey him???
This decision is chilling in its ramifications.
Americans had better wake up and start taking their government back - a piece at a time - or find they have no government or freedoms left to take back.
Did the court just provide 0bama with the Eichmann defense?
“The military has no valid reason for questioning the authority of its commander?”
Lind also says that authority stops with the Pentagon. So if the Pentagon accepts a usurper everyone else has to accept the usurper too, regardless of The Constitution.
Lind ruled that it was not relevant for the military to be considering such claims, that the laws allegedly violated by Lakin were legitimate on their face and that the chain of command led up to the Pentagon and that should have been sufficient for Lakin.
