"OathKeeper" = "RightWing Terrorist"

Someone has been reading the SPLC's reports on "Right Wing Extremists" and has decided that swearing to uphold the Constitution is a bad thing.

What this article really shows besides a desire to suppress opinions he doesn't like is a lack of a decent editor as well as quite a bit of ignorance of concepts such as sovereignty in a federal system is NOT the same as declaring independence and that it is not contrary to the UCMJ to disobey an unlawful order.

He also gives a nice shout out to the Sipsey Street Irregulars.

The net effect of this will be to get more people to sign up. They are their own worst enemy.

David Codrea also has an Examiner column on another Oathkeeper hitpiece.

Another hit piece, this one coming from RedState:

The Malignant Nature of the Oath Keeper Movement
Oath Breakers Not Oath Keepers

http://www.redstate.com/streiff/2009/10/21/the-malignant-nature-of-the-oath-keeper-movement

From the looks of it, the author supports violating the Constitution when convenient.

From the article...

"To pledge to willfully obey orders is in direct conflict with the Uniform Code of Military Justice, or UCMJ."
