Just Following orders is a logical process most famously employed at Auschwiz. The lowly soldier there was up against a power no less potent than the US Commander in chief. Numerous pshycological tests have shown that people will violate their own values when given what they perceive to be a command from an authoritative figure.
The lowly Guard at Auschwitz never spoke up because Supreme command was a Man. Mr. Lakins supreme command is document, a contract with me and you and him. Not a Man. Not Mr. Obama. Not a Kenyan citizen immigrant. A contract that is being violated.
You are right. Mr. Lakin has chosen to disobey orders so that he can respect his conscience, our constitution, you, me, and our country. He is guilty as charged. He may go to jail. But this will only bring more attention to the fact that Obama is not an NBC. And that will only vindicate Mr. Lakin in the long run.
If LCOL Lakin commits a war-crime then Obama could have a gold-plated long form Birth Certificat hand delivered by the Angel Gabriel himself and it wouldn’t save Lakin from prosecution. If LCOL Lakin doesn’t commit a war crime then it could be proven that Obama was born on Venus and it wouldn’t place Lakin in any jeopardy.
