Soldiers are not required to decide whether orders given to them are constitutional. They cannot commit war crimes with impunity, but that's pretty clear. This guy doesn't like Obama and is being used as a pawn by right-wingers who have bizarre conspiracy ideas that are delusional. He should be courtmartialed and sent to jail. I thought you right-wingers are all about defense and security. How would you like it if all members of the military suddenly decided that since Obama is not the legitimate president in their view, they should all refuse to do anything? Your notions are exasperatingly stupid!

The only "proof" offered by Barry Soetoro (or the Obama campaign) has been an incompetently doctored JPG computer image of what purports to be a Hawaii "Certification of Live Birth" (COLB), a document which is *not* a birth certificate, and which can be issued to anyone resident in the State of Hawaii whether they were born there or not.

Indeed, one source stipulates that the doctored JPG image in question was drawn not from a COLB issued to Mr. Soetoro but rather to his maternal half-sister, Maya Soetoro-Ng, who was born in Djakarta, Indonesia. That COLB was apparently used as the template from which the forgery was devised.

See http://polarik.blogtownhall.com/ for further information (in grinding detail) on the nature of the forged COLB and how it was foisted upon our nation.

No real, stamped and signed Hawaii State utterance of any kind - COLB or birth certificate - has ever been submitted to a competent forensics document examiner regarding the "natural born" citizen status of the individual who unlawfully holds the office of President of these United States.

We've got us a "Nixon Moment" in the works, folks.

And just like Richard Milhouse, Barry really *is* a crook.

Seems Maj Cook has had his orders rescinded! Maybe NO one has to go to Canada to avoid the war.

The absurdity of this dialogue shows how desperate some people are to devoid themselves of taking responsbility for their choices. The soldier is a coward, pure and simple, and is resorting to a lame excuse to weasel out of his duty.

The reasoning goes by fanatical conservatives, that even though Obama's mother was a U.S. citizen, that Obama might not have been. That somehow, whether in Hawaii or perhaps some other location in the world, if Obama's father wasn't a U.S citizen, then he too wouldn't be. I might go futher to suggest that because Obama is the son of a U.S. citizen who is white, and his father who is black and not a U.S. citizen, that he would somehow not assume his mother's citizenship.

There is no fraud in this. How many children of a mother who is a U.S citizen, would not also be considered a U.S. Citizen no matter where they are born?

Just a republican sucking up that free money every month, now they ask him to earn it the neocon wants out.

Sounds like bush and cheney during Vietnam.

This is good...Obama will bring the people to the revolution and throw him out just as the good people of Honduras did with their fake president

The media died with Walter Cronkite and now they are little more than Public relations for the heads of state...

Gone are the men and women who dared question the president

At some point they are going to realize that the Emperor has no clothes on
