Review Military High Command Dereliction of Duty to Constitution!
My friends, the Obama Administration is well on a course to destroy the United States Military – the source of our strength, defenders of the Constitution, and the last defense against tyranny.
At least 5 men are imprisoned in Ft. Leavenworth, KS for allegedly following illegal orders issued in the Iraq/Afghanistan conflict. Now LTC Terry Lakin is also incarcerated at this same military prison for REFUSING to follow illegal orders!
There can be no double standard. If you want men to only follow legal orders, they must not be imprisoned for questioning whether their orders are in fact legal. Any other scenario only creates obfuscation – which is exactly what the military hating Marxists want – an emasculated and crippled military that will not bar the path to absolute tyranny.
It is no wonder that on the same day the Obama faction Democrats in the House passed the legislation meant to inaugurate a homosexualized military culture, an unjust court-martial rendered its verdict against an honorable officer whose only “crime” was seeking from his superior officers reassurance that the Constitution of the United States has been respected in the disposition of the office of commander in chief. This is the harbinger of the sorry truth. If the Obama extremists and its GOP fellow travelers — like Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA) and, by the way, Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) who voted to repeal “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” with the Obama faction in the House — impose their will, soon there will be no place in the military for those who treat their sworn oath to defend the Constitution as a matter of conscience. The honorable tradition of true citizen service will altogether yield to the mercenary and ambitious mentality of those who seek power above all, as means to gratify their own pleasure and ambition.
With the election of Barack Obama, we saw the advent of the political leadership suited finally to destroy the American constitutional republic. Once the culture of law-imposed denigration of the Constitution takes hold of the military, Americans will live in the shadow of the military force that corresponds to it. God help us.
Until they consolidate their power over our Republic, it is incumbent upon us as God-fearing free men and women to fight back. You can still make a difference, first of all by making your voice heard conscientiously and persistently in Washington DC, to those who are supposed to be representing you and your abiding respect for our Constitution and its system of ordered liberty.
LTC Lakin has been sentenced and sent to Leavenworth for doing what others should have done, which was to question the legality of his orders. He did so in accordance with his training as an officer and his Oath to the U.S. Constitution. LTC Lakin’s commanders are guilty of dereliction of duty, as they rationalize, spin and obfuscate, concocting legal evasions to avoid the central problem of the Commander-in-Chief’s eligibility.
Obama’s cover up of his Constitutional Ineligibility to be president has reached a new low as Obama has now destroyed the Military Career of Col. Terry Lakin a true man of honor, a medical doctor, a patriot and a heroic martyr to the cause of ordered liberty.
LTC Lakin’s entire trial was rigged to ensure the truth of Obama’s deception is never revealed. Justice has been repeatedly denied and due process squelched in the name of dirty, extremist politics. We must press for the New 112th Congress — self-proclaimed as rededicated to American Constitutionalism — to open an IMMEDIATE investigation into this shameful miscarriage of justice, and bring a Congressional demand of clemency, a pardon – or at the least restore Col. Lakin’s right to defend himself and his right to evidentiary discovery, which were blatantly denied him in this case. We must now demand justice – not only for the Lakin family, but for the sovereignty of our country and the integrity of our Constitution.
“I was praying and soul searching,” Lakin told the court. “I believed there was a question that needs to be answered to ensure a valid chain of command. But I had asked every question, done everything else I could short of disobeying orders, without success.”
The convictions were inevitable after Lakin was denied the right to discovery, and the “hanging judge” who assigned this case forbade the defense from producing any evidence or experts who might persuade the court martial panel, a jury of Army officers, that Lakin’s deliberate disobedience of orders was justifiable.
The fix was in from the outset; Lakin’s hands were tied by every earlier ruling effectively forbidding what might be any authentic or effective line of defense, specifically the argument that any order originating with Obama might in fact be illegal as long as Obama’s eligibility remains unproven. The Obama cover-up is in full swing, and unless you help him today, a brave patriot, faces six months in prison for his loyalty to the Constitution, and yes quite possibly our entire way of life will be railroaded by the anti-freedom forces presently cementing their control over every aspect of our lives.
There was a time when responsible military authorities fully understood that soldiers had the right to reasonable assurance that their orders came from a valid source, and that officers had the duty to confirm this when there was reasonable doubt. During the Battle of the Bulge, for example, English-speaking German soldiers dressed in American uniforms had infiltrated American forces. Their activities gave rise to disquieting rumors and confusion in the ranks. In immediate response, checkpoints were set up all over the Allied rear, and military policemen drilled servicemen on things which every true American soldier was expected to know, such as the identity of Mickey Mouse’s girlfriend, baseball scores, or the capital of a U.S. state.
Today, American troops are every day risking and laying down their lives in battle just as they did in World War II. But rather than acting responsibly and effectively to protect the integrity of the chain of command, current military hierarchs seem ruthlessly determined to intimidate anyone who seeks reassurance against the now widespread question concerning the constitutional identity of the person who presently occupies the office of commander in chief. Lt. Col. Lakin now unjustly convicted, dismissed from the service he loves and respected more than his “superiors” and stripped of his rank is saying, simply, “I don’t know that Barack Obama is the person the Constitution says he must be. The Constitution is the supreme law of the land. Therefore, I cannot know that in obeying his orders I am defending the Constitution, as I am sworn to do.”
So today I need a sacrificial gift from you to enable Declaration Alliance to fearlessly sound the clarion call and rally the American people to LTC Lakin’s side as we battle to press for the New Congress to open an investigation and restore Col. Lakin’s right to defend himself. Without the Constitution, we are not America, and all our institutions of freedom and law are imperiled.
A gift of $125 or perhaps even $250 or $500 will help deliver the truth to households all across America. The fact is, unless we get out word about LTC Lakin’s plight, an honorable and heroic military man, standing in the gap for you and me in the cause of liberty will be publicly defamed by his own politically-compromised chain of command, and the Constitution trampled.
I know you cherish freedom as much as I do, so please help us fight back TODAY!
