Army "Birther" Says He's Guilty!

https://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20101214/ap_on_re_us/us_army_birther What is wrong with these people?

Criminal record, discharged from the armed services, seems they let him off lightly

he hasn't been sentenced yet


He was convicted yesterday on three counts of disobeying orders, which could put him behind bars for up to 42 months. Thus begins the next stage of his career as an extremely high-profile activist looking to prove or disprove Barack Obama's citizenship: Apologizing for screwing it up.

"I am extremely sorry for everything that has come of this," Lakin said in unsworn testimony during the sentencing phase of his trial. "As a military member, I was wrong."... "I didn't want it to end this way," said the 17-year veteran flight surgeon. "I want to continue to serve the military."

Ok wait...This guy, a 17-year veteran of the US Army (putting him at a minimum of 35 years old) is basically playing a game of "You're not the boss of me! " with the military ?!?!?!? The military that literally is "The boss of him".

he's trying to force someone/anyone to show him the long form version of obama's birth certificate

By being insubordinate to his boss? IMO, that's pretty stupid. What makes him think he's so important?

i don't know what he's thinking, but they're raising millions of dollars for this cause (birthers)

many people like to be told what they want to hear, even when it's absolutely false
