COUNTDOWN to Court-Martial (Fort Meade, MD, Dec 14-15)

This week, the American Patriot Foundation heard from a retired Navy SEAL, shocked by the stunning decision by a civilian court in which a terrorist suspect/detainee was convicted on only ONE count of 249 criminal charges: "Let me see if I understand this, Col. Lakin can get a more severe punishment that Ahmed Ghailani?"

Unlike Ghailani, LTC Lakin is being tried in a military court-- for defying military orders in order to seek the truth about whether Obama is legally, Constitutionally eligible to serve as Commander-in-Chief. LTC Lakin's sworn oath as a military officer requires him to uphold the U.S. Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.

No one in his chains of command or in his Congressional delegation could tell him-- after more than a year of seeking assurance that his orders were lawful-- if Obama met the requirements of Article II, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution of a "natural born citizen" and was entitled to command the U.S. Armed Forces. LTC Lakin's military orders to deploy to Afghanistan under Obama's announced surge, included a requirement that he present copies of his birth certificate (to which he dutifully complied).

We continue to be amazed at an administration that balks at producing such a simple, elementary document-- one that every US citizen possesses and is asked to show many times during his or her lifetime.
