Marine Faces Discharge for Being Openly Critical of President Obama

On Wednesday the Marine Corps notified a sergeant who has been openly critical of President Obama that he is violating Marine Corps policy and could face dismissal.

Marine Sgt Gary Stein started an Armed Forces Tea Party Page, and declared that he would not follow the “unlawful” orders of the commander-in-chief.

Stein, who has been in the Marine Corps for nine years, maintains that he has done nothing wrong, and that he will fight the dismissal.

“I’m completely shocked that this is happening,” he said. “I’ve done nothing wrong. I’ve only stated what our oath states that I will defend the constitution and that I will not follow unlawful orders. If that’s a crime, what is America coming to?”
