I hope that those who have attempted to label LTC Lakin as a hero read this. Lakin should have been the surgeon on the ground dealing with those mass casualties. Instead of answering the call of duty, he was staging a political stunt that was a forlorn hope from the very beginning.
I cannot say what effect this testimony might have on the panel, but I know what my reaction would have been were I sitting on that panel. In my numerous times on a Court Martial panel, I always looked for something in the sentencing phase to give me reason to reduce sentence as I tended to see redeeming virtues in the eyes of a soldier standing in the dock. I'm afraid that this would have the opposite effect.
What I see is Obama, the steaming POS who put both the Lakin and Dobson families through hell for Obama’s own personal gain. There was NO REASON for any of this, if Obama has documents to back up what he claims.
This guy is willing to play chicken with everything but his own damned ego. He is willing to put anything on the chopping block for the sake of his own supreme highness.
How can that be called anything but evil?
