Jeff posted something I intended to answer but was wacky busy at the time and

it now is I expect this to become very important in the next few weeks. We
now have three senior officers who have refused orders because they believe
the CinC is not legally president because he hasn't produced a birth
certificate. They haven't been thrown into the brig for mutiny. I
myself believe he has one, but his not producing it is the gift that keeps on
giving to his political opponents.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
