Another loud mouth who thought being in the military would be all about free tuition and cheap airfare to Europe. I guess he prefers that we civilians have to fight Al Qaeda here on our streets than that his precious self that volunteered to be our nation's muscle might have to fight them over there in Iraq. Good riddance. You're disgrace. Now you can spend the rest of your unemployed, shameful life in a ditch in Crawford Texas with Cindy Sh-thead.

First Lt. Ehren Watada,

If the guy is a 1LT, he must have joined up since the start of the war, I assume. Why would he volunteer, and now refuse deployment? What a scumbag, in any case.

Is he too stupid to realize that he isn't helping himself here? I hope they continue to add charges on to his case until he spends the rest of his life breaking rocks in the brig.

You don't have free speech rights in the military. When you are given a lawful order, you obey it. Lt. Ehren Watada didn't and its time for him to face the consequences.

This less-than-a-human-being is a disgrace. He gives a bad name to all who wear the uniform.

The nation's first Army officer to refuse deployment to Iraq urged the public in a statement Wednesday to "stop the war so that the death and sacrifices of American soldiers will not be in vain" after a major legal setback in his court-martial proceedings.

There are some people who join the military because it's a job that allows a person to retire after 30 years. An 18 year old can retire at 48. That's pretty young to be free and still get a retirement check to live on.
When it's time to actually do what they were hired to do, they have a temper tantrum. It was suppose to be an easy ride. They really didn't want to defend the country. They wanted the pay check and the goodies.
This man knew what his job was. He wanted to dance without paying the piper.

A sucker's born every minute and Watada is just another sucker of the leftist, anti-war moonbats in this area. He's a traitor and sissy to boot. I hope he gets max time in military prison to contemplate the legality of his own behavior.

I would guess he is planning to marry rich, run for the senate, and eventually lose a close race for president.

The 28-year-old Honolulu native has argued that the war is illegal because Bush did not obtain proper authorization for it

Baloney! What does he think that resolution that John F'n Kerry and Hillary voted for was for? Sending them cupcakes! If he thinks it takes a U.N. resolution (absurd)then what does he think Resolution 18 and 19 were for?

courts have ruled that soldiers do not enjoy the same degree of free-speech protections as civilians.

No they don't...and they know this when the VOLUNTARILY enlist!

Translation: I joined the military so I could get free college and stuff. I didn't think they'd actually want me to act like a soldier!

Most LT's still have their heads partially up their posterior.

This guy hasn't begun to pull his out.

I say, take the coward up in a chopper to 5,000 or so, and push his cowardly ass out of it. See if his marxist friends on the ground can catch his sorry, worthless, commie ass.
