Army birther pleads guilty to 1 of 2 charges - WKRN, Nashville, Tennessee News, Weather, and Sports |

Army birther pleads guilty to 1 of 2 charges - WKRN, Nashville, Tennessee News, Weather, and Sports |: "FORT MEADE, Md. (AP) - An Army doctor who disobeyed orders to deploy to Afghanistan because he questions President Barack Obama's citizenship has pleaded guilty to 1 of 2 charges against him.

At a court-martial proceeding Tuesday in Maryland, Lt. Col. Terrence Lakin of Greeley, Colo., pleaded guilty to a charge that included not meeting with a superior when ordered to do so and not reporting to duty at Fort Campbell.

Lakin faces up to 18 months in prison and dismissal from the Army.

He pleaded not guilty to a second charge of missing a flight he was required to be on. His court-martial at Fort Meade is continuing on that count.

Hawaiian officials say they have records proving Obama was born there and is therefore eligible to be president. But so-called birthers challenge that."
