Army to court martial 'birther' officer Posted: Tuesday, April 13, 2010 4:10 PM by Mark Murray Filed Under: Security From NBC's Jim Miklaszewski and Mark Murray U.S. military officials tell NBC News that the U.S. Army will court martial a lieutenant colonel who refuses to deploy to Afghanistan because he considers orders from President Obama to be "illegal." Army doctor Lt. Col. Terry Lakin believes Obama does not meet the constitutional requirements to be president and commander-in-chief, because he believes (incorrectly) that Obama wasn't born in the United States. Lakin refused this week to report to Fort Campbell, KY for deployment to Afghanistan, but instead showed up at the Pentagon, where he was confronted by his brigade Commander Col. Gordon Roberts, a Vietnam Medal of Honor recipient. Lakin was informed by Roberts that he would face court martial, and his Pentagon building pass and government laptop computer were seized.
True, it was a redundancy...but the idiot birthers have to come to accept they are idiots, so please use the phrase "idiot birthers" whenever possible...
Absolutely. Regardless of what the soldier believes about his CIC, he needs to follow orders. The only thing relevant is his commanding officer is giving him an order.
President Obama has spent almost two million dollars lawyering up to hide his birth certificate from the American people. Now, he intends to court-martial a decorated military doctor, just so he won't have to show his birth certificate to the American people. Isn't it obvious this man would detonate nuclear bombs rather than show his birth certificate? What is it on his birth certificate that makes him soil his pants at the thought of the citizens of the US seeing it?
Are you at all familiar with what the meaning of a conscientious objector is? Refusing to follow an order does not make you one. Just makes you insubordinate.
