A worthy Commander In Chief...?

Lt. Col. Lakin’s awards and decorations include the Army Flight Surgeon Badge, Combat Medical Badge, the Bronze Star Medal, the Meritorious Service Medal, the Army Commendation Medal with two Oak Leaf Clusters, the Army Achievement Medal with one Oak Leaf Cluster, the National Defense Service Medal with Bronze Service Star, the Armed Forces Expedition Medal, the Army Reserve Component Achievement Medal, the Army Service Ribbon, the Overseas Service Ribbon sixth award and the NATO service medal. He has served previously in Honduras, Bosnia, El Salvador, Korea, and Afghanistan.

This American hero, who takes his oath to protect and defend the Constitution seriously, is being court martial-ed. Why? Because, while he says he has one, Lt. Col. Lakin's Commander In Chief will not actually produce a valid birth certificate... nor will he release his college records or other school records that would indicate his claimed natural born citizenship status.

Think about that... For failure to produce mere pieces of paper he says he has, the Commander In Chief will allow a decorated American hero (Lakin) to be court martial-ed... where Lakin could be imprisoned and/or lose his retirement, after decades of honorable service .

What does that say about the Commander In Chief...?

Where's Thomas Jefferson... When you need him?

Federal government is spending America into bankruptcy and levying oppressive taxes. Federal judges say its OK to kill unborn babies. Federal judges say that society must embrace sexual immorality as being normal (gay agenda)... and now we have a judge (in WI) saying that a national day of prayer is unconstitutional.

Does anyone seriously believe, that if Thomas Jefferson was alive today, he would not have already written, or would be writing, his "Declaration of the Causes and Necessity of Taking up Arms"...?

Gunner Delay is running from the debate HE desired...

Just learned today that Gunner DeLay will not answer any questions dealing with the deleted section of his Campaign Website where he advocated a robust Federal Government involvement in "higher education".

You know... the section that he told me he would welcome a debate on and hoped he would be challenged by another candidate on. The one he said about debate: "Bring it on!" (The same section he discarded our friendship on...)

I find his behavior... interesting. Not suitable or appropriate for a Congressman... but interesting.

Others should also find his behavior interesting... because it shows DeLay's willingness to obfuscate and deceive.

Personalities and Politeness vs Principle, Performance and Protection

The American Republic, the United States of America is at its most critical juncture – EVER! A battle is raging with tremendous injury (possibly fatal) being done to our Constitutional Republic… and the VAST majority of our politicians can’t seem to grasp that bit of reality.

Senator Coburn from Oklahoma… thinks House Speaker Nancy Pelosi “is a nice lady” and made a further generalization (as reported) that most in Washington DC are “nice” people… then he disparaged FOX News. Senator… Are the people at FOX News not “nice”?

What Senator Coburn fails to understand is that personalities and politeness need to be disregarded in favor of principle and the performance of his oath of office to protect of the Constitution against all enemies, both foreign and DOMESTIC.

That “nice” Pelosi that Senator Coburn “likes”, is a primary domestic enemy of the Constitution. All the smiles, pats on the back, handshakes and tolerance need to stop and the enemies of the Constitution need to be exposed and actively opposed. Senator… Aiding and abetting the enemy… is disgraceful.

Which 3rd District Congressional Candidate will take this battle for the survival of the United States seriously... and drop the polite niceties. This is a life and death struggle that will dramatically affect the quality of life enjoyed by our children, grandchildren and their childrens children.

Gunner DeLay's practice of "Politics of Personal Destruction" - 3rd installment (My email of 4/2/10)

In order to fully address the recent attack upon my character by Gunner Delay on 04/01/10, I have been encouraged to respond on a charge-by-charge basis to things said by Gunner in the following email... in order to bring the conversation back to a factual and truthful context. On 4/1/10 I issued a general reply, but some still have questions as to whom to believe... something undoubtedly sought and calculated by Gunner, the politician, as necessary to damage control.
Gunner's email is in RED with my [responses] following the individual charges/lies contained in the email. If you have not gotten the emails as they have happened, the whole incident is covered in detail at: http://nwaindependent.blogspot. com/

Dear friends,
I know each of you recently an e-mail from my one time friend Dale Morfey. I first met Dale when I was a young lawyer and he asked me to sue Joycelyn Elders for violating the Political Practices law. I took the case all the way to the Arkansas Supreme Court without charging him a dime. [ As the President of the Westark Christian Action Council, I approached Jerry Cox of Little Rock with the idea to oppose Bill Clinton's appointment of Joycelyn Elders and was ultimately asked by Jerry to do so. As is the case with most Pro-Life Christian ministries, we both had a lot of moral support, but little financial support. I turned to local lawyers that I knew and asked if they would represent the WCAC, pro bono, in seeking prosecution of Elders under the Arkansas Political Practices Act... they all refused. A friend I was working with found out what I was trying to do and suggested I contact his friend, Gunner DeLay, a young, new attorney. I did and Gunner agreed to do the work pro bono with WCAC paying only for expenses - which we did. This was a reputation building event for Gunner. The experience and free publicity was extensive. Maybe Gunner needs to be reminded that as a volunteer leader, I was not being paid either. ]
I also handled another suit for him, free of charge, to obtain abortion information from a local hospital. (experience has taught me to charge even good Christian brothers) [ This, again, was done while I was in the capacity of Chairman of the WCAC and was an agreed upon pro bono representation by Gunner, with the WCAC paying for all expenses. And, again, Gunner's reputation was expanded through continued exposure in the press. Hardly a valueless undertaking by a young attorney. No doubt - this brought Gunner to the attention of many conservatives in our area. ]
I later did some personal legal work for him at well below the market rate. [ On personal work I have always paid what I have been billed. Gunner set the prices. IF I was given reduced rates... could it have been out of a sense of gratitude for my many volunteer hours of work in his multiple campaigns... or his gratitude of my financial contributions to his campaigns? ]
When I left the prosecutor's office I came back to work at my old law firm and Dale's daughter was working for us. Unfortunately, we had to lay her off and Dale became very upset with us because of this. I explained that the decision was out of my hands but he was still upset. [ I find this reference and inference particularly distasteful and I only am saying anything about this because Gunner chose to bring it up. - I was actually quite happy over our daughter leaving - because of the working conditions. What I found disappointing, but had set aside because of our friendship, was that Gunner was unwilling to truthfully address an abusive and hostile work environment. Such things happening within his own legal practice is not something that should be tolerated by someone who claims to have the character necessary to represent others in Congress. ]
The other day when we had an open house for the campaign, Dale came by, not to pat me on the back or say that he would be praying for me and my family but to attack me in front of my guests and try to cause me embarassment. [ Except for the fact of my being there, Gunner's statement is an outright lie. I asked to speak with Gunner in private but he assured me that those present (campaign staff) could listen. I even stopped talking when another approached, but was told by Gunner that it was OK. I spoke in very quiet terms, so as to not be overheard, and it was Gunner who ultimately turned our meeting into a spectacle. For a factual account - Please go to: http://nwaindependent.blogspot. com/ "Pursuing Status Over Service, Has Ruined Many A Person"]
We all know Dale and we all know his style, but I was particularly hurt that he would treat me this way considering our history together. [ Feigned hurt and injury. Gunner's conduct at the scene was a far cry from showing him to be hurt... and a far cry from his acknowledging our friendship. It was precisely the contrary. ]
I hope those of you who know me will call if you have any questions about where I stand on the issues and I'm also sorry that Dale has decided to take out his frustration in such a destructive way. [ Feigned sorrow... a lawyers duplicitous way of trying to garner a sympathetic ear. Gunner's only regret is that his conduct is being accurately and truthfully exposed. For THAT and that alone... I am sure he is sorrowful. ]
Thanks,
Gunner

Gunner DeLay's Lying Response and My Answer

[First paragraph and scripture was written by the individual who forwarded what she was given.]

At Robin's request last night at choir, I am sending these remarks. These were forwarded to me right after Dale's first remarks, but I never received them. It was my request that Gunner call Dale privately on this. Nevertheless, I am forwarding as I received them this morning and had promised to do so.

"This is my commandment that ye love one another, that your joy may be full."

I find Gunner's remarks... to be indicative of a defense lawyer with a guilty client, doing his best to slice and dice the truth in order to muddy the waters, deflect and redirect... all in order for the client to avoid being held rightfully accountable for the clients wrongdoing.

They say there is no greater fool... than a lawyer who has himself as a client. They are correct.

Everything I communicated about Gunner's behavior is the truth. http://nwaindepende nt.blogspot. com/

What he has maliciously responded with... is a contemptible distortion of the truth (half-lies), mixed with even more contemptible and hurtful outright lies.

If Gunner will resort to these unprincipled tactics here, what will he be willing to do after being exposed to the corrupting influences of Congress and Washington D.C. ...?

People who know me, know that I speak the truth... and apparently Gunner has forgotten what truth is. I find Gunner's feigned sorrow over the incident... repulsive. Gunner is merely engaged in political damage control... while trying to play his supporters as fools.

Please don't be fooled.

Sincerely,

Dale
