Obama Issues Order for More Troops in Afghanistan

President Obama issued orders to send about 30,000 additional American troops to Afghanistan as he prepared to address the nation Tuesday night to explain what may be one of the most defining decisions of his presidency.

As I recall, Ltc Lakin’s deployment was to be part of this surge. This order emanated, as we all know, from the CIC.... after months and months of documented, outrageous dawdling, which hurt our brave troops immeasurably.
The fact that that the order naturally went down thru the chain of command doesn’t change the source .. or does it, in your mind?
Nope. Lakin is not charged with disobeying Obama's orders but the orders of his brigade commander and two other superior officers. The orders were for him to report to the office of his brigade commander and for duty in North Carolina, not Afghanistan. If Obama was unmasked and removed tomorrow that would not change the charges Lakin is facing in the slightest.
Right. Take note that "Judge" Lind along with her indefensible 'judicial rulings' has moved the trial date from October to November 3rd, and now it set for mid December. She keeps kicking the can down the street. Lind knows her ruling is full of BS.
