Yes, the UCMJ is a powerful tool if used correctly. The problem is the power of the bargaining power of the corporations that are working the puppet. How blind we all seem!

The military will have to do something about this.
It is quite obvious to many, that this president is
totally insane. And the Democrats are doing nothing.
We need a military coup, and a total cleansing of our government. We need to show movies of Mr. Smith goes to Washington, with Jimmy Stewart. We need the movie Judgment at Nuremberg, with Burt Lancaster,
Spencer Tracey.

We really just need to wake up.

First off, this would be a military coup and unconstitutional.

Second, as the civilian authority of the military, the president isn't bound to the UCMJ. Otherwise, Clinton could have been overthrown by the military as adultery is is also against the UCMJ.

Third, is the Huffington Post now hiring writers from the Onion? Because I can't believe this was actually written with a straight face.

Whatever. Anything can happen and please, who cares about the constitution. I'm talking about FREEDOM here and you want to fall back on the words of people that knew nothing of the real world TODAY !.

A big soft hug for you lorigrace.

One sure thing in life is that things change. We can only hope to cope with those changes as well as our forefathers did. Good or bad they must have coped because we are still here.
Since we haven't been around for more than a couple million years we don't even know if we are a successful species or not yet.
The real world today is the yesterday of expanding tomorrows. Perhaps one day, sadly we will remember these days as the best of times...or not.

"hmmm... bound by the UCMJ this one is not. Commander in chief, but not military is he."

pretty sad when a paraphrase from a fictional character has more logic and truth in it than the Huff-n-puff post.

He is bound by Federal law isn't he?
UCMJ is all federal law

Or are you going to try to tell us that the president is above the laws of his country?

skwirlinator, the UCMJ is a Federal law that applies to _military personnel_. GW Bush is not military personnel, he is civilian.

Thus, that particular law does not apply to him.

I believe that n2 is correct in his statements. WOW! There's a first. I actually agreed with you n2.

Bottom line is... all the more reason for impeachment proceedings to commence. That is the reason they were created... to take control of an executive who is out of control.

You simply invoke the Uniform Code Of Military Justice.



Is this accurate? I mean I realize it's on the internet and all... LoL
