Date: Mon, 2 Aug 2010 16:28:51 +0000


Hello Wells,
Thank you for your respect and honor of an American Patriot Lt. Col.Terry Lakin over his refusal to follow orders until Barack Obama documents his eligibility to be commander-in-chief on Citizen Wells, which is very much appreciated.

You inquired as to status of the Amicus Curiae I filed in support of Lt. Col. Terry Lakin, and I am sorry to report to you I have some very deep concerns over his defense team.

Proper procedure for something like this would be for the defense team to surmise how my Amicus Curiae information, availability, and unique circumstances could aid or help the defendant. As an equal to 2008 Candidate Barack Hussein Obama filling the " Standing " requirement first, and then as a witness for Lt.Col. Terry Lakin who faces charges of imprisonment, very serious and grievous penalty, and a life riddled with hell, abuse, slander, and dis-respect for simply standing up for the Constitution that we all love, and which has given us so much in freedom, liberty, and relief from a destruction and overthrow of our property by a heavy handed Federal or State Government; the defense team for Lt. Col. Terry Lakin has in my opinion, been negligent.

Lt. Col. Terry Lakin's defense 'dream team', shall we be frank and call it a nightmare, has done absolutely nothing in activating the Amicus Curiae as a defense for their client. My heart is very heavy in this very important, and unique set of circumstances which seems to me would necessarily be a wake up call to all Americans of their very freedom and liberty being upset, and our own Constitution which protects each one of us from malicious charges with Habeus Corpus, unnecessary high bails or cruel and unusual punishment, and in very clear language protects us with demands for Congress to punish 'offenses of 'The Law of Nations' in which outlines natural born citizen requirements with the very terrible proposition of any person usurping the Presidency, that we all clearly face right now at this time in our United States of America.

My report to you is sober, and very ominous of clear and present danger every American faces at this very moment in time. I report to you that I have not been contacted whatsoever in a single line, jot, or title regarding my very strong testimony that has to do with exactly what Lt.Col. Terry Lakin now faces in grievous charges. My testimony is not racial, as you may know I sued Sen. John McCain and served him and the Republican party 4 days before the 2008 Republican National Convention wherein he was made the nominee.

The judge in Judy v. McCain was so afraid of what Sen. John McCain would do to him, and seeing I did in fact have standing, seeing in fact McCain was not a natural born citizen born in Panama and naturalized by a law of Congress after 11 months after his birth, defied odds and delayed any rulings on my case until after the 2008 election results. Its a fair assement that America cannot depend upon a single District Court Judge, or a single Military Judge to take such a nefarious case into consideration, because of fear of retaliation, the same fear that grips 99.9% of the military even at this time. Its one thing to swear to uphold the Constitution, quite another to die because you couldn't find some rock to crawl under and die. After the Judge in Judy v. McCain said that to me, the burden of proof goes to the winner, I turned my attention to Barack Hussein Obama.

I offered a new witness and new information that could have sustained very good legal reason for Reconsideration in Barnett v. Obama with a Motion for Joinder in Barnett v. Obama in California. Amazing timing, it was in court precisely 3 days before Orly Taitz's "Motion for Reconsideration". Again, this was perfect timing for Orly Taitz to bring in my Motion as a Reason for reconsideration, she was served that document as was the court, and the defense, and not a word to me, and not a word in court about it.

These are serious times we face, and where traitors an tyrants are among us, there can be no room for leniency when evidence like this is blatantly ignored.

May God bless America, and be with our friend Lt. Col Terry Lakin in his hour of doom, while injustice may happen and good men die every day for the good of our Country it may be necessary for him to suffer this while America's population sleeps, for if they do sleep, it will be a rightous judgement from our Creator that hangs over them in the usurpation of America.
We are suffering a Domestic Crisis in America

Will Manning busted 76,000 secrets out, how many has Obama?

Will Manning - "Will" you please ‘pardon me’ Mr.Barack Hussein Obama?
The headlines read glare, the information was bursting in the air, gave proof through the night that our secrets weren’t there.

From Uncoverage.net- Jane Jamison report:

http://www.uncoverage.net/2010/07/will-“wiki-leaker”-manning-face-treason-charge/
[ And with that opening paragraph the cries of “treason” will echo throughout the land. In fact, I’ve already read several comments at various blog and news sites which call for a firing squad as just punishment for Private Manning, should he be convicted. Some have gone so far as to suggest a firing squad even if he ISN’T convicted!]

Will Manning yielded evidence that he had down loaded Afghanistan war reports, that he says ought to be made public. Where does treason and reason ever cross a fair line? They don’t you idiot, however your spy cloak being so weak, as the below video relates from Comedy Central’s John Stewart, we dismiss ya and don’t chop off your hands.

Now comes the problem of choosing the authority to punish Mr. Will Manning for releasing some 76,000 secret reports from army intelligence.
Wait a minute… hold everything, someone just asked me about his defense and a defense for this guy?

If he were smart he'd claim there was no authority to press Treason charges because the Highest Office of Authority is not a natural born citizen, his COMMANDER IN CHIEF is a fraud, constitutional violator, which was simply the example being set for him...gosh.." if the President can do it, why can't I?" type of defense. This is the problem we now face as Americans, how can we justify prosecution of this Will Manning and excuse Barack Obama?

We do have a much bigger problem; what if Will Manning was the President with that kind of ambition, with access to all of America’s top secrets that would make Will Manning’s deed look like double dipping a chip in the dip?

Can you imagine the President leaking Intel to foreign enemies to put our boys in harm’s way? You say it couldn’t be possible but yet you don’t consider the very foundation of Barack Hussein Obama to be a lie, and every vote for him a deception of the highest order of hell to supplant the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the Land of which rivers of blood have ran to defend? You don’t think that’s a crime worthy of consideration? Oh how Jesus Christ hated the hypocrites! He reserved his greatest rebukes for just such as this with the publicans and those in high seats of authority excusing themselves, that the law could have no hold upon them, yet meeting out punishment on the same acts from the lower and middle class. This was the ultimate cause of the downfall of Governments past and present.

The Book Of Mormon called them the Gadianton robbers, with their secret signs and pass words, they would know who was one of them, and then they could not be subject to the law they espoused. They made covenants with one another that their deeds would be kept secret and their corruption in high places spread like a plague. Yet they see themselves as the rulers, and seek no God to rule over them bound to any wisdom but their own foolishness.

Tell me our Constitution doesn’t demand a “natural born citizen” who is born of our United States Soil to two parents who are U.S. Citizens, and then tell me Barack Hussein Obama is qualified? He is a qualified liar who has deceived millions of votes in America.

You line up and protest the two black panthers for sitting in front of 1 voting precinct with batons in intimidation of voters, but say nothing about the man who actually hit the hand of every American who voted for him with FRAUD. Tell me anyone is not blind and deaf, with their eyes closed and ears shut in aiding and abetting this circumstance of deception and fraud of the highest order!

This is the gravity of which we find ourselves with a President who is willing to lie on his Declaration of Candidacy, thereupon soliciting every vote for him under the auspices of deception and fraud and the same goes for Sen. John McCain.
America is facing a much more serious threat from within right now then from without because of these lies and acts of deception upon the American People. This is why I have pledged to call for a United States Senate Trial for Barack Obama if I’m elected as Utah’s United States Senator, which no other candidate has pledged to do.

Immigration and Eligibility Common Authorities for McCain and Obama

Arizona is on the front line in defending America’s Borders, and the Feds not only refuse their job but are doing just about everything they can to assure the dis-comfort of the Union and undermine States Rights, especially in light of the Feds failing.

http://azstarnet.com/news/state-and-regional/aea822e0-9a6b-11df-9fe8-001cc4c002e0.html

Reports from the Arizona Daily Star list a few of the parts of the law that have been put on hold by the Federal Judge:

[The overall law will still take effect Thursday, but without the provisions that angered opponents. Sections barred from being enforced include:
• Requiring a police officer to make a reasonable attempt to check the immigration status of those they have stopped;

• Forbidding police from releasing anyone they have arrested until that person's immigration status is determined;

• Making it a violation of Arizona law for anyone not a citizen to fail to carry documentation;

• Creating a new state crime for trying to secure work while not a legal resident;

• Allowing police to make warrantless arrests if there is a belief the person has committed an offense that allows them to be removed from the United States.
"Requiring Arizona law enforcement officials and agencies to determine the immigration status of every person who is arrested burdens lawfully-present aliens because their liberty will be restricted while their status is checked," U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton ruled.

The judgment is "virtually a complete win for the United States" and that the "heart of SB1070 has been enjoined," University of Arizona law professor Gabriel "Jack" Chin said.]

Very interesting, the University of Arizona law Professor Gabriel “Jack’ Chin would weigh in on this. You may recall another issue the Arizona black belt Professor Gabriel “Jack” Chin weighed in on for it was used in the law suit by me, Cody Judy, in my Article II Patriot Stand against John McCain here:

Why Senator John McCain Cannot Be President: Eleven Months and a Hundred Yards Short of Citizenship

Arizona Legal Studies Discussion Paper No. 08-14

Abstract:
Senator McCain was born in 1936 in the Canal Zone to U.S. citizen parents. The Canal Zone was territory controlled by the United States, but it was not incorporated into the Union. As requested by Senator McCain's campaign, distinguished constitutional lawyers Laurence Tribe and Theodore Olson examined the law and issued a detailed opinion offering two reasons that Senator McCain was a natural born citizen. Neither is sound under current law. The Tribe-Olson Opinion suggests that the Canal Zone, then under exclusive U.S. jurisdiction, may have been covered by the Fourteenth Amendment's grant of citizenship to "all persons born . . . in the United States." However, in the Insular Cases, the Supreme Court held that "unincorporated territories" were not part of the United States for constitutional purposes. Accordingly, many decisions hold that persons born in unincorporated territories are not Fourteenth Amendment citizens. The Tribe-Olson Opinion also suggests that Senator McCain obtained citizenship by statute. However, the only statute in effect in 1936 did not cover the Canal Zone. Recognizing the gap, in 1937, Congress passed a citizenship law applicable only to the Canal Zone, granting Senator McCain citizenship, but eleven months too late for him to be a citizen at birth. Because Senator John McCain was not a citizen at birth, he is not a "natural born Citizen" and thus is not "eligible to the Office of President" under the Constitution.

It’s good to see the professor again! As John McCain is fighting for his political future, he has run amuck the Constitution of the United States. He actually had a ‘good ole boys’ U.S. Senate Resolution 511 created on his behalf, never mind that the rest of the Natural Born Citizens in America were smart enough to figure that one out without a U.S. Senate Resolution that is NOT binding, NOT signed by the President, NOT seen by the House, which to be affective as Constitutional it would need to be.

This McDastardly deed also had the effect as a ‘gag order’ on all the Republican Senators from opposing Obama’s Eligibility, based on the fact they had signed off on Sen. John McCain’s ill gotten gain.

Very sad when America has lost the trust of the two party systems to greed, power, and deception, over service, honor, and trust. This is the biggest motivation for me to make the following 2 videos in the hope that Arizona will wake up and vote McCain out of there for not being true to his oath.

Sen. John McCain a Dis-Honor



And "Choice Political Tracks"

Utah Celebrates 24th of July and Cody pledges Obama Trial Nov. 3rd,2010

Wow it’s the 4th of July all over again for Utah on the 24th of July! We get spoiled with rodeo, parades, barbeque, and of course fireworks. On July 24th 1847 the first pioneer wagons blazed into the Salt Lake Valley. We are very proud of our entry into the Union as an Independent State within the union of the United States of America but it took a long time!

July 24th isn’t the Utah’s entry into Statehood, which was Jan 4th 1846 as the 45th State into the Union, but many artificially recognize it as a celebration of peculiar nature for the State origin, so it’s easy to mix up. The 24th of July is officially known as Pioneer Day. Of course images of the pioneers coming into the Salt Lake Valley stir up memories of exactly why they had come, and that clearly was to escape religious persecution. Utah’s Constitution is an Ace ahead of the United States Constitution when it comes to religious persecution, which I’m very considerate, respectful, and thankful for.

The unique particular of Utah becoming a State into the Union- During the 1870s and 1880s, laws were passed and federal marshals assigned to punish and harass polygamists, confiscate church property, jail polygamists and deny jury trials or voting rights to all polygamists. In the 1890 Manifesto, the LDS Church finally agreed to ban polygamy.

When Utah applied for statehood again in 1895, it was accepted. One of the conditions for granting Utah statehood was that a ban on polygamy be written into the state constitution. This was a condition required of other western states that were admitted into the Union later. Statehood was officially granted on January 4, 1896, over 30 years after the 60,000 population requirement for statehood had been met.

This of course today is seen as a travesty in the face of U.S.C. Amendment I. which states “that Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;” The Christian Bible clearly did not abdicate polygamy, nor did it sustain same sex marriage as many of the States in modern time have passed. The unintended consequences of de-population have contributed to a host of problems that we are seeing now, which ironically, polygamy may have helped making it a ‘law of nature’ that has consequences in not being followed by mankind.

The biggest irony of this clearly,( ¾ of the world actually practices polygamy, and here may be a reason) is the desperate attempt now for the Federal Government to fund entitlement programs without an up and coming generation of Americans. People wonder why Washington has the audacity and hope to consider mass population with amnesty programs? Clearly it is an attempt to come up with contributions towards Social Security, Medicare, and any other underfunded Government Program that may need some funds because younger people just are not having as many children for which these programs for the elderly were to be shouldered and actually depend upon.
We are all familiar with the number of persons going down supporting Social Security for example: use to be 10 to 1, went down to 6 to 1, now we’re at 3 to 1 and the Government that made laws, is discovering very quickly the way they have bit off their tail to spite their own head. It is interesting debate for sure, but clearly the Laws of Nature will not be governed by The Feds.

One only need to study a ‘Law of Nature’ in a little more detail to find that Gods Laws are for our good, and we often find out sooner or later that we weren’t too smart in comparing polygamy to slavery.

Anyway, what did we expect, some grand reward for stiffing God in the face? It’s another quadric to see the majority of pro-lifers vehemently opposed to polygamy, as if God is not counting the one’s they are prohibiting from coming down in their idea of his grace denying some soul that ability. It’s a truly confused world I tell ya, and I don’t have all the answers, just here like you trying to figure some things out.

Utah celebrates Pioneer Day July 24th as a celebration of the first wagon trains entering Utah. The struggle for water and to plant gardens were immediate first task upon entering the valley, and that tradition continues all over Utah, as a industrious people, it’s almost hard to go into any neighborhood and not see someone out in some garden, of course I have mine also and prepared a little video for the Celebration of out Utah Pioneer Day.

Voters Remorse now Offered for McCain & Obama!

Never before offered relief – A buyers remorse on your Presidential Vote of 2008 for Obama and McCain is now available. First of all you just write your U.S. Representatives and tell them the 2008 election candidates you voted for never told you they weren't 'natural born citizens'. This has never happened before! Now you have grounds to get your vote back!

You need to tell them it is their job to see to it that your vote is protected from fraud, and just because Obama needed John McCain to be quite on his eligibility, [John McCain knew himself he was not a natural born citizen, or why would he have tried asked for a U.S. Senate Resolution for his Senator Buddies, Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama along with all his other R- U.S. Senators in U.S. Sen. Res 511 ] was no reason for Republicans to abandon the Constitution.

Many people got buffalo chipped when that U.S. Sen. Res. 511 was passed in thinking that made Sen. John McCain legitimate. Of Course Sen. John McCain was not foreign to the problems of his being born in Panama. The Senator from AZ. knew firsthand the rejection of an Amendment to the Constitution to allow non natural born citizens to run for President in the year 2000. YES! This wasn't attempted in the early 1800's, but it was very recent.

The subcommittee heard arguments, received testimony and rejected the proposal on guess what basis... SAFETY! That's right, they rejected it on the same grounds our forefathers introduced it into the Constitution.

Now, the U.S. Sen Resolution 511 that announces Sen. John McCain is not anywhere close to a Constitutional Amendment, which requires 3/4 of the Legislatures to vote on it and requires a signature from the President. Sen. John McCain only had it passed with the Senate. The House of Representatives never heard it or voted on it, and he certainly didn't have a President sign it.

So the sum total of what Sen. John McCain did was try as best as he could to subvert the Constitution and use the power he had gained in the Senate to strong arm everyone into voting for it. There needs to be an investigation into ALL the Republican Senators testimonies as to the conditions they voted on U.S. Sen. Resolution 511.

What exactly did Sen. John McCain tell them?

Now if safety was the issue in not passing a Constitutional Amendment, what position exactly does that put Sen. John McCain and Sen. Barack Obama in subverting the Constitution?

I'm sorry to say that it puts them in a treacherous position towards the United States. A treacherous position towards every voter whose vote they wanted to cultivate with un-constitutional poison.

When you think about the enemies of the United States wanting to tear, and stomp, and dis-honor America, of course at the heart of that is our Constitution. Now, we see firsthand how Sen. John McCain has not honored the Constitution and how he has actually spit on it, and dis-honored every drop of blood that has been spilt for it.

When you consider God's infinite wisdom in placing anyone in his particular birth spot with the knowledge of everything, I'm sure McCain/Feingold, McCain/Kennedy, and McCain/Lieberman was pretty straight forward as to saying this guy is a progressive socialist in sheep’s clothing of a Republican. Barack Obama is also not a natural born citizen with a British Father, and as you can see with his policies is a socialist and left as you can get.

There is a special place for traitors of the United States and that is the place McCain and Obama should be sent simply because every single vote cast for them was done so in a dis-honor for the Constitution and without a punishment who may see that their endeavor was successful and say to themselves, "no one will do anything to us and we shall be all the more well for the wear."

Their names need to be stripped from every record, or honorable mention in the United States, and their positions and seats removed for the dirt that they have treated every single United States Citizen in asking for their vote and biting the hand that voted for them with such a venomous strike.

Men The New Ball & Chain ?

Men the New Ball & Chain?
So it was said in the Newser article entitled “ Women Are the New Men THE POST INDUSTRIAL ECONOMY BELONGS TO FEMALES”
http://www.newser.com/story/95468/women-are-the-new-men.html

While it might be hard to argue with the facts that 8 million jobs that were lost in the recession were lost to men, and as quoted in the article: “postindustrial economy is indifferent to men’s size and strength- The attributes that are most valuable today—social intelligence, open communication, the ability to sit still and focus—are, at a minimum, not predominantly male”, the way I feel seems to add fuel to the fire.

In our 21st Century modern world were women have not only surpassed men in many fields and areas in competence in the work place, education, and by God in still being able to raise the kids, a women has shown men just how marvelous she is. In a sad way I’ve experienced myself this crazy insane competition that my own wives, at different times, have had with me.

My second wife even made the comment that she was somewhat upset with herself that I had bought the house and provided it for her 4 kids for the time we were together. I was flabbergasted by the inner competitive race being run, that I had no idea I was in. For my own part, I look at a women’s role as something I could never ever fill, so why or even how could I compete?

That’s insane! As to her intelligence and ability to figure and accomplish a task, I certainly don’t hold anything back as to credit to women. I often feel without being told, that I have worn out my usefulness. If I’m resented for what I can do, that she can’t, in any given circumstance, for whatever reason; bad credit, kids to feed, or anything really that can affect a man just as well, AND I’m ridiculed for what I can’t do or fail at, being hit with a recession or joblessness; there is no room for a good job well done.

It’s a catch 22 that really leaves you feeling blue. Well, I suppose we all like feeling needed. And when either of the sexes perpetrates the lack of needing each other upon the opposite, they are really in a state of pride just ready to fall off the pedestal.

Hopefully, for whatever reason one of the sexes in a marriage has fallen short, the other one is ready and willing to pick up the slack. As a team of horses is pulling a wagon, the most is truly accomplished when they are pulling in tandem, working together as one in the best ways they can. The burdens are lighter, and a labor of love is enjoyed.

In the age of these post modern wonder women, if she is to be congratulated, she also must bear the fruits of her labors. What in our world are we dismal in? Well, the prisons are full near capacity, the debts about 14 Trillion, and the kids are born into slavery just coming into the world oweing $40,000 before they take their first breath here in the United States. Something is very wrong! Could any of that be contributed to the new women in our world being so competitive in the work field that her children received a man’s wages instead of her invaluable nurturing? Could any of that be not waiting to pay cash but the influence of pleasing a women and buying alot more then what you have cash for? But now.. its' all going to be different?

Where is Mom? Oh she’s working and will be home tired and washed up around 7pm. Well, post modern world has a solution for that too- Don’t have children! Then you can do it without the guilt!

The resultant plan of attack literally attacks the society at the heart. Eating away at the blood supply of the population reduction we find fewer people supporting Social Security and the elderly entitlement plans that are vital. We see a deflation in the population, and a loss of revenue in the tax bucket, which drives politicians crazy trying to figure out how to get more people into the tax system with say immigration amnesty, and still trying to tell them it’s greater to give to your new country then to take: a desperate attempt to lower the standard in order to increase the tax revenue.

While women may compete with men, when the competition drives her away from the home in large degrees and in comparison to a man, the competition is always going to hurt society in the long run, because there is just no replacement for women in the family unit. A man can do what he can and many of us do in watching the kids and trying to fill in a gap and families all over the United States dealing with what they have to deal with.

Hopefully, they are valuing each other enough to realize that either one down in the dumps or dealt a rough hand is no reason to quit the team. Financial hard ships are the easiest reason to start dumping on one another. The best piece of advice I can think of to give anyone taking the time to read this is to remember to act in love, because it poses the least regret. People are people and in a truth the saying that “God don’t make no junk” is as true today as it ever was. A beat up car may take a new part here or there, but it’s no reason to trash the whole car.

That’s just a little comparison to not giving up on each other and realizing that situations never stay the same. Change happens every day, and just as sure as a women says a guy is her ‘ball and chain” the World War III breaks out, millions of men die and she realizes her world has been so flipped that for some reason he was needed and now he is dead and she is alone.

Then her prayer is not for a equal pay, not for equal status, she could give a damn about the race now she has won. God has just shown her that when reaping what you sew, he indeed created his sons. Sometimes winning wasn’t the best idea against a man. That being unique and strange and opposite of her was much nicer then having a bunch of her make-up stole, and her clothes worn of which she, in most cases anyway, never had to worry about him taking or wearing.

Speaking for and not against the laws of nature that everyone of us are stuck with facing regardless of any most modern scholastic horse shit, thank God for a man’s production ability! While her limitations are set at 1 pregnancy a year, there is no match for a man’s ability to create literally millions in one shot! There is no competing with that, and there’s not even a reason to argue against the laws of nature. They just are, and if that makes you mad it’s a pretty good reason to say come on guys, let’s go to the game, while she deals with her own mother nature.

You know, if there was any competition I'd just like to make an official declarations "Women Have Won!". Knowing women as I do, I'm almost postive that is not going to do the trick, they won't feel better knowing they have won. We're going to have to change a few things now starting with the coined addage that have been a womens pretty cozy compliment, "Behind every man is a better women". Now, they have won, we will have to say, "Behind every women, is a better man".

I don't like that though.. I like the idea of honoring a women, but in truth it's simply because she is women and in all I do, I could never ever ever ever do what she is so capable of doing.

Here is my latest campaign video.. enjoy!

McChrystal Commentary Nailed Beyond Media Reports

I think this guy nails it!


http://www.vtxoa.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2874005#post2874005McChrystal was talking to youPeter Heck - Guest Columnist - 6/28/2010 10:20:00 AM
Some Excerpts:

[when news broke of General Stanley McChrystal in essence saying the exact same thing to Rolling Stone magazine. This isn't just a story to be brushed off. This is a bombshell.

Don't be distracted by the media comically chastising the General for daring to speak out against "The One" (yes, the same media that hailed military officers who were willing to "speak truth to power" in criticizing George Bush). That isn't the story.

The true meaning of the McChrystal episode is titanic, because it is quite apparent the General was sending a stern message directly to the American people.

For more reasons than I can count, it is beyond obvious that McChrystal's public criticism of Obama was not a lapse in judgment or a mistake. It was unquestionably intentional. First, four-star generals have not achieved that rank without knowing the chain of command and the expectation of subordination to superiors. Second, all of McChrystal's advisers were touting the same message, demonstrating this was no fluke, nor an offhand comment taken out of context. Third, McChrystal spoke the inflammatory words to Rolling Stone, a well known anti-war, anti-military magazine. Fourth, reports are that McChrystal actually saw the piece before it went to print and offered up no objections to its content.

If all that is true, then it naturally begs the question: Why did he do it?

McChrystal is one of the lead authors of the "counterinsurgency" strategy that, despite the nay saying of liberals like then-Senators Obama and Biden, transformed Iraq from a quagmire into a success. He knows the strategy works. But as its architect, he also knows this new military policy requires two vital elements: lots of troops, and as much time as necessary for them to do their job.

Bush committed to stay in Iraq until the job was finished. The result speaks for itself.

First, Obama – having championed himself as the anti-war candidate – cut the number of troops McChrystal requested. And then, in what has to be one of the most foolish wartime moves in history, he announced an arbitrary date for the beginning of American troop withdrawal.

This may please the ex-hippies in the anti-war crowd that Obama courted during the 2008 campaign, but it has [Afghanistan].

Having pressed his case privately with Obama's war team in Washington , McChrystal certainly saw the handwriting on the wall, and as a final recourse, pled his case to the American people.

Were his actions a breach of protocol? Yes. Did they rise to the level of insubordination? Probably. Was Obama justified in removing him from command? I think so. But after we're done hammering McChrystal for going over the President's head, we better give some serious thought as to why he was so willing to put his career on the line like that.

The reason is as clear as it is frightening: our political leadership in Washington is clueless. And their incompetence is costing us not only resources and money, but most importantly the precious lives of brave American soldiers.

General Stanley McChrystal was willing to lose his job to send that message to the only people who can do something about it. He was talking to you.]

The interesting commentary is also that from private to general our troops are still U.S. Citizens, and with that have 1st Amendment rights. Obama's firing McCrystal for what he said and certainly not what he did as far as not following direct orders is a 'RED FLAG' as to what Obama thinks of our first Amendment turned against him.

The marks of good leaders are certainly ascribed to not only the rights they enjoyed while getting to their positions, but what they ascribe to while in the seats of powers to those who may oppose them Constitutionally speaking of course.
Therein lies’ the quagmire of America at this time: We have a usurping president who at the very least lied about his qualifications for office in the Declaration of Candidacy, understood very clearly in our Constitution, and the office of the President is charged to protect our Constitution.

The problem follows; he wouldn't have the same respect for our Constitution once he got there. What did people voting for him expect?
