I'm sure you wouldn't, your statement just pissed me off.
Lakin has been deprived of his due process and Sixth Amendment rights.
Refusing orders is serious business. Doing so for the reasons stated is practically foolish.
Tilting at windmills is one thing, blowing bubbles at them is another.
I'm sorry for what's happened to him, but what did he expect?
Obama's presidency is half over.
How about we work on voting him into obscurity instead of praying
for some magic solution to make him gone? It doesn't seem to be accomplishing much.
I humbly submit that you are right.
We will not find justice while that cretin is in the White House.
We will hopefully get the chance to, in the history books, record him for what he is: The first Usurper of the United States. Assuming the Nation survives that is.
It makes me sick at heart, and I sincerely do not want to let got the hope that he can be removed from that office in the robes of disgrace I believe he so soundly deserves.
Exactly. Apparently, Lakin justifies this as follows:
Lakin, a flight surgeon, says in the videos that any reasonable person looking at available evidence would have questions about Obama's eligibility to be president and that he had "no choice" but to disobey orders. He said he would "gladly deploy" if Obama's original birth certificate were released and proved authentic.
Having "reasonable questions" is not sufficient to justify politicization of the offier corps by refusing an otherwise lawful order. If you're going to go to the mat, you have to be sure that you're right.
The truth on this issue is that we may never know the absolute truth. Only his mother really knows, and she's not talking at this point. Defying orders because the President "may" not have been born in the U.S. is not the right way to challenge the issue. Politicizing the officer corps is a dangerous road down which to travel.
