You must not have much to do this holiday season.

Upon release from prison he will be dismissed from the Army.

Whereupon he will begin his new career as a national spokesperson for the need to reform Congress and the Federal government to assure that this never happens again. Lakin is a Patriot and America knows it. While this may be a dark period in his life, the best is yet to come. Think of how many political prisoners have gone on to become great after a brief stint in jail... This guy has a career. We just need to be there for him when he walks free...

So a thief is not a thief - if he is not caught.

It’s only when one is ‘caught’ that - what is true becomes true - and not before.

Nothing is true - unless given the opportunity to prove the truth. No opportunity, it remains a lie.

Gotcha!

Right! A lie is a lie whether a billion people say it’s not a lie. I’m amazed how some minds are so deceived, they can’t even think for themselves. The result of too much MSM, their minds have been indoctrinated. They use propaganda because it works - we see the result here.

Common sense is out the window. Dead fish go with the flow.
The dumbing down of America is in full swing.

But I do know, for a fact, that Obama could not have “qualified” by Jan 20, 2009 because even his age can not be legally determined until the actual amended BC from Hawaii is presented as evidence to a legal authority.

If that's what the 20th Amendment means, then no President has ever qualified. To which legal authority did Ronald Reagan present his original long-form birth certificate?

If the statute says you can’t even look at the records without the proper qualifications, then the older rules saying you can have a noncertified copy seem suspect to me - I’d expect the more restrictive statute to be followed. If any of the lawyers would like to chime in, I’d love to hear an opinion.

I'm a lawyer, albeit not admitted in Hawaii. But the rule everywhere I've ever looked is that statutes always trump regulations if they're inconsistent, and that is doubly true if the statute was passed after the regulation.

Who had challenged Ronald Reagan’s eligibility before his inauguration? Apples and oranges. SCOTUS can only hear the issue when there is a case brought before it. There was not a case brought regarding Ronald Reagan, but there have been a multitude of cases brought regarding Obama.

And unless and until he presents his birth certificate as evidence, it has no probative value. IOW, the only way anybody can legally say what Obama’s age is at this point, is if he presents the BC in a court case, which he refuses to do.

There’s no way he “qualified” by Jan 20th.

You’re right ... hopefully, he’ll get the welcome and
support of conservative folks when he returns to society.
And, he’s a skilled physician who surely should be welcomed
back into the medical community with a decent job, if
that’s legally possible after this. Albeit, the gloating
lefist lawyers at the military blog were also sickly
chuckling that he’d also lose his medical license.

God bless him .. I just pray his mental state and spirits
stay positive in this time period.

Regan was born to two parents who were citizens, inside the mainland United States.

Obama has a British father who was never a citizen, and there is no legal proof he was born in the United States.

With Reagan, there is no question about his citizenship status. With Obama there IS.

Only when there is real question as to a persons heritage and birthplace is there REASON to demand such proof.

When such reason exists, then proofs should be offered.

Reagan was unquestionably a Natural Born Citizen, his papers, his history and the details of his life were all in the public eye long before he became Governor of California.

With Obama, NO ONE KNOWS ANYTHING.

The only way one can equate the two men is to point out the start differences between the two, and to recognize that THIS is the reason the Founders put in the qualifications regarding Natural Born Citizenship. To prevent cretins like Barry from usurping power.

You’re kidding.

I know those things happen, it did with a business
newsletter to which I subscribe and a friend, and
I started getting funky emails .. that ended when
they either changed their login or password or had
their IT people clean the system.

Those miserable hackers, bots and spammers are out
there everywhere. A pox on their houses.

God will sustain LTC Lakin. Remember how He cared for Joseph when he was wrongfully imprisoned and how Joseph emerged as second in command of the nation of Egypt. God will show Lakin favor and great blessings-—somehow, some way. Our job is to hold him up in prayer and to support his family.

Cool. In six months we will have a walking, breathing hero on the loose. Hopefully he will become a mouth piece for the truth. If he does he will be lifted up beyond his position in the military lifted him up and be of more use to his Country than he ever could have been even in the military. Hopefully he doesn't waste the possibilities through unnecessary fear or shame. Hopefully he won't be intimidated.

I don’t think you will - he simply folded by pleading guilty and I do not think he will relish any further role in this fight.

It all depends on the particulars and how he feels after the dust settles. He may have not had much of a choice or been brow beaten into it. If that be the case he needs to come out with the details. Who knows what actually went on behind the scenes except him and them and of course, The LORD. We must pray for him, that he will know what is best and do what is best for the Country and for truth's sake.
