Yeah, I do understand the difference between legal and lawful

That you do not, I suggest you present your blurred view to the OED as the next new word, "illawgal".

That might clarify the issue for everyone on "ludes".

There seem to be a lot of 'lude dudes out and about these days.

You frankly have no excuse to "not have a clue" about the outcome of this court martial. There are a number of very good professional blogs on issues of military justice, and most of them have been given comprehensive coverage of this case. They are run by actual military judges and lawyers. Hey... it is clear that you do not like me. I get that.

But why are you so incurious that you would not take that dislike and use it as a motivation to go out and pursue the truth on your own?

Those identifiable experts, by the way, are in unanimous voice that LTC Lakin has 1) pissed away his career for no reason, 2) that his violations of the UCMJ are a slam dunk case for the prosecution (particularly given that he announced his intention to miss movement and violate orders on YouTube) and 3) that Obama's eligibility is irrelevant to the case and will never be mentioned past the point at the initial hearing when his requests for discovery are denied.

But I'm sure you will dismiss their experience and knowledge as merely being "elitist."

As to your final assertion, surely you don't really believe that. I have known a lot of lawyers who have lost a lot of cases... but none who were surprised at their loss. Disappointed? Maybe.

Surprised? Nope.

Maybe you've just watched too many Harrison Ford movies.

Very safe, and entirely timid! I'm sure it works for you. It is not generally a characteristic of people who actually accomplish something. Even Ghandi's or Mother Teresa's humility was not at the cost of them being afraid to risk being wrong by taking a stand.

You know nothing about me, really. But at least we see that you actually are willing to make predictions after all. Just on the things that do not matter, like your personal opinion of an anonymous guy on the Internet.

Naaah. You said a dumb thing and instead of just sucking it up have launched into an extensive retrograde defense. I have no idea why you are bothering, because it's not really a very interesting discussion and you are coming up goose eggs anyway.

But I guess some people are just like that.

This "IMO" issue came up on another forum here on CD. One poster said his high school English teacher told him since it was his work, it was obviously his opinion, therefore, unnecessary to add that little phrase. I agree.

Wonderful news! Big-haired Minnesota Congressloon Michele Bachmann was finally photographed with crazy attorney/dentist and insatiable lover Orly Taitz, the Queen of the Birthers.

The Tea Party Patriots invited both of them to speak at a lunch in California on Friday. Taitz claims Birtherism didn't come up, but that's literally the only thing she talks about, so I'm not sure if I believe her. Like, this is how she claimed that she didn't talk about Birtherism

All marijuana-use arrests, adjudications, convictions and imprisonments were under "color of law". Marijuana use has never been unlawful, only illegal.

The color of the law was green, which fell under the color of the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 - the dark greenies.

It is illegal to pay your taxes with anything but negotiable instruments backed by federal reserve notes.

It is illegal to pay your taxes with cash lawful money of the United States (gold or silver coin).

Barack Obama is the legal president of the U.S.

But, he is not the lawful president of the U.S.
