“Release” and “Fraud” Call made for Lt. Col. Lakin

SECRETARY WAS SUGARY-SWEET AND DEFENSIVE

I called Gen. Horst’s phone number as listed below, and they directed me to the PAO (Public Affairs Officer), Col. Robert Manning. The correct phone number to call is 202-685-4899.

Col. Manning said he has received about 300 calls today already (is that even possible at 12:30 EST??). He reiterated to me that Dr. Lakin pled guilty to 3 charges and was found guilty of not obeying a lawful order from his DIRECT SUPERIOR OFFICER, and of the importance of order and obedience in the military. I reiterated the initial case, which was the lack of a long form birth certificate, and how I hated to see such an unjust sentence (6 mos in Ft. Leavenworth, loss of retirement, and discharge from the military) for such an honorable officer. I asked, at the very least, for suspension of the loss of retirement, if not suspension of the complete sentence.

Col. Manning listened patiently (and even once asked me to watch my tone – my ‘passion’ was showing), and said he would relay my message to Gen. Horst. He also said he welcomes phone calls and e-mails (Robert.manning1@us.army.mil). He takes each one seriously. I plan to write an e-mail soon.

Thank you for caring.

Please, everyone, if you can find it in your heart to make one more phone call this Christmas season, make this one.

LTC Terry Lakin should not be in Leavenworth for 6 seconds, let alone 6 months, all because he refused to be re-deployed to Afghanistan pending Obama’s release of a true, long form birth certificate.

If we burn up the phone lines, maybe, just maybe, we can get a reduced sentence or even clemency for Lakin. This is the CHRISTMAS season, and Terry Lakin is spending it away from his family in LEAVENWORTH because he stood up for the Constitution.

Also, please forward this to everyone you know and post it on Facebook and other sites. Let’s show Terry there are plenty of us who support him.

Operation FREE DR. LAKIN

Major General Karl Horst —- 202-685-2808
For those of you who inquired about clemency, please contact MAJOR GENERAL HORST, who was the convening authority for court-martial, at 202-685-2808   MG Horst has the power to suspend or shorten LTC Lakin’s sentence. His email address is:  karl.horst@us.army.mil

Terry arrived safely at Fort Leavenworth to begin serving his six month sentence following his conviction at his court-martial.  You might remind MG Horst that LTC Lakin was denied the right to evidence to defend himself- i.e. denied discovery and denied the testimony of expert witnesses.  Feel free to repeat to him that officers swear an oath to the Constitution- are trained on the unified chain of command and know that they are supposed to question orders that may be illegal.  The Army failed LTC Lakin repeatedly when it avoided answering his simple question- is the Commander-in-Chief legally, Constitutionally eligible to command the U.S. Armed Forces?

LTC Lakin enjoyed support from high ranking, retired military officers, Major General Paul Vallely, and Lieutenant General Thomas McInerney and eligibility plaintiffs, CDR Charles Kerchner and Captain Pam Barnett (who both attended his court-martial).  LT GEN McInerney had wanted to testify as an expert witness for LTC Lakin but was disallowed by the Judge, COL Lind.  Former Presidential candidate, Ambassador Alan Keyes also supported LTC Lakin and was not permitted to testify.

The Post & Email first called Maj. Gen. Karl Horst’s phone number and was redirected to the number for Lt. Col. Manning, 202-685-4899.  When I provided the reason for my call, the woman who answered the phone seemed to be a bit befuddled; she said that Lt. Col. Manning was gone for the day and I couldn’t speak with him.  When I asked if she could relay a message, she said, “Well, I could give him the message tomorrow.”  She spoke very slowly and deliberately, as if she was playing some type of a game.

I was asked for my name, state and phone number, which I provided.  After doing so, I briefly stated that I was not calling for clemency for Dr. Lakin, but rather, for his immediate release, because the whole country knows that Obama is a fraud.  The secretary then stopped me and said, “Oh, I don’t know about that…the whole country knows he’s a fraud?  I don’t think so.  I’ll just have Lt. Col. Manning give you a call.”

I answered, surprised, “Fine, if he is able to.”  The secretary then quickly hung up.  I got the impression that she was trying to intimidate me by “threatening” me with a phone call from the good colonel.

The secretary appeared very defensive of her boss, who is apparently taking some heat for what was done to Lakin.  It remains to be seen if Lt. Col. Manning returns my call; I have my doubts.  However, if I do hear from him, it will be reported factually.

It was not the secretary’s job to insert her own opinion, but rather, to simply listen to the message and relay it as she has been charged with relaying all of the others.  She did not appear competent to do so.

I am troubled by the comment above wherein the writer said that she was told by Manning to “watch her tone.”  Why should our freedom of speech be curtailed?  This leaves little doubt that the military officers are following Obama’s orders as his regime plans to assume control of free speech on the internet effective tomorrow through unconstitutional, stealth faux legislation which the traitors in Congress are planning on passing.  Even Fox News stated in January of this year that the plan to do so was not a “wild conspiracy theory.”

The military is well aware of what they have just done to Lakin.  They are no longer the protectors of the U.S. Constitution; they are protecting only Obama and themselves.

Walter Fitzpatrick had warned that this was what would happen at Lakin’s court-martial because of what had happened to him.  He reported that the military even threatened a civilian with a court-martial.  Is that what they plan to do to me?
