Former General who wants to "overthrow" Obama...

"It's too partisan in Washington and it's Obama's fault!"
No, stupid. It's because of your right-wing cronies who just happen to be in government.

Paul Vallely's Plan To Oust Obama & Bring America Together

Submitted by Brian Tashman on Tuesday, 1/7/2014 10:25 am

WorldNetDaily today ran a glowing profile of former general and Fox News pundit Paul Vallely, who is calling for the overthrow of the Obama administration and a citizen’s arrest of the president. Vallely told WND that he simply wants to end partisan scuffles in Washington…by holding a “national vote of no confidence” against Obama.

where a government and a Prime Minister can be dumped by a vote of no confidence.

Or, he can STFU and STFD and wait until the next election.

Comments like that seem tailor-made to promote ones-self to the foam-addicts, while being safely beyond ever having to follow through on it.

Support of Lieutenant Colonel Lakin birther claims[edit]

In 2010, Vallely was one of three retired general officers who expressed support for US Army Lieutenant Colonel Terrance Lee Lakin in his refusal to deploy to Afghanistan based on Lakin's claim that President Barack Obama had no legitimacy as commander in chief. In an interview, Vallely stated "I think many in the military – and many out of the military – question the natural-birth status of Barack Obama."[12] Following Vallely's announcement, Army Major General (retired) Jerry Curry and Air Force Lieutenant General (retired) Thomas G. McInerney also expressed public support for Lakin.[12][13] When Lakin refused the orders to deploy, the military initiated a court-martial under the Uniform Code of Military Justice. On September 2, 2010, the presiding judge of the court-martial ruled that Obama's status as a natural-born citizen is irrelevant in the court-martial case against Lakin, as Obama's eligibility is outside the jurisdiction of the military and falls within the jurisdiction of the United States Congress instead.[14] Lakin was convicted on a charge of missing movement,[15] sentenced to six months confinement and dismissed from the Army.[16]

WorldNetDaily (WND) is an American web site that publishes news and associated content from the perspective of U.S. conservatives and the political right.[1] It was founded in May 1997 by Joseph Farah with the stated intent of "exposing wrongdoing, corruption and abuse of power"[2] and is headquartered in Washington, D.C.[3]


Nothing a righty could or would say would interest me. I won't even visit Reich Wing websites to see what they're writing or talking about.
