So I gather that US soldiers are expected to die while on their tours? I find it very shameful that this man was penalised for refusing to show his loyalty to Obama. I gather that free speech in the US is dead then?

there are plenty of Republicans who can get these records...there are people who worked with his mother who said she was in Hawaii on the day Obama was born...maybe she had some high speed rocket that she took to Kenya, had Obama and came back the same night...even in that case he is still eligible to be president.

Hopefully, more will refuse on the same grounds.

Hopefully more soldiers will refuse to serve? Awesome, great idea.

The fact is, they took an oath to obey not only the president but also all officers appointed over them. So whether or not they agree with Obama or even think he is eligible is really meaningless.

I wouldn't encourage anyone to do it. The circustances of everyone's case is different, and some may end up spending a little unexpected time in Kansas. Orly won't care about them, she's a fame w****.

First off, the dumb *** who is refusing to serve in the military because he believes Obama is not a US citizen should have his dumb *** thrown in jail. I had uncles from Puerto Rico who did not even speak friggin' ENGLISH and got drafted and served in Vietnam, did not believe in the war, and they did not ***** and moan like this prick.

Secondly, to all the morons who say that Obama was born in Kenya, his birth certificate, which is online, shows he was born in Hawaii. CNN has a newspaper clip from a Hawaiian newspaper in 1961 that announces the birth of Barack Hussein Obama II from Mr. and Mrs. Obama.

Third, even if Obama was born in Kenya, the fact that his mother was born a US citizen, would have made him a US citizen at birth, making him eligible to be President. Anyone who disputes me on that can learn how to read basic 4th grade level English and take a look at this little thing called the United States Constitution.

Lastly, to the people who say that Obama can end all this hoopla by showing his birth certificate himself know that that is not true. The countless idiots who believe that he was not born in Hawaii could be shown a video clip of his mother giving birth to him at the hospital back in 1961 in Hawaii, and they STILL would have some "evidence" to say that he is not eligible to be President.

America is the land of brave and free, and unfortunately, sometimes, the amazingly stupid.

I'm glad he won't have to deploy.

I would'nt want this guy serving over, next to, or under me if I was going into harm's way.
