Do you think military service members should be prosecuted under UCMJ for disrespect to the Commander-in-Chief? I say absolutely, YES!

That's a "Roger", But before the President leaves the Oval-Office he should Presidential Pardon Former Black Panthers Political Prisoners for whom was wrongly Jailed for their Beliefs and give some of the Homeless a place to call home in the White House so they can help him with his Ideas to end "Homelessness" for good. Finally, I think President Obama's Successor should be a Native-American because this is their land taken from them by Extreme-Measures. I should know I'm half Native-American myself.

OMG... This One's Gonna Be A Fun One....
At Least 1/2 The Time....
YUP, Of Course He Should Release The Black Panthers,
And Including Good Ole Charlie Manson & His Ladies Too..
Were The Black Panthers Jailed For Their Beliefs?
There's A New Twist On The Court Room Proceedings.
And, I'd Like To Give You A 1/2 Credit On Your Comment Of
"i should know I'm half Native-American myself."
Perhaps You Should Know Because You're 1/2 Native-America,
So Is There Any Reason You Don't Know About The Other 1/2?
I'm 1/2 Crazy. Does That Mean "I'm A 1/2 Psychiatrist, Or Just 1/2 Nuts"?
Sure, Let's Make The Next President Native American, Why Not?
And The One Following Should Be An Irish-British-French-Lady,
Born In Oklahoma To A Chinese-North Korean-Panamanian-Jungle-Tribesman
Who Was Living On The Island Of Contadora.
Okay, Your Turn....!!

Much of this comes from resentment towards the current POTUS and his being the first black President in this country's history. This question NEVER came up before now and sickens me no end.

Well, As A Snow White Honkie With A Snow White Honkie Family.
ALL Of Us Honkies Voted For Obama....
Damned Glad To Have Obama Too.....
He Could Have Been Purple For All We'd Care.
But We Supported Him For Who HE Is, Not Any Other Reasons.
Welcome To The World Of Reality....
WTF Will Happen Next?
Sorry Sarge, But I've Had About All Of THAT Bull S*it I'd Care To Handle.

We've all had opinions about the POTUS since the US Military was established. Not all of them are respectful. We follow his orders. Commissioned Officers cannot speak against elected officials but the UCMJ doesn't keep us enlisted scum from having our own opinions.

In that it is a violation of Article 88, UCMJ, then my answer is yes. My issue is that those who I've met who'd like this Art 88 prosecuted during the current administration seemed pretty vocal and equally disrespectful toward the previous Commander in Chief.

Many here have provided thoughtful responses. Mine may not be as good, but I have always felt there is a difference between commissioned/noncommissioned superior officers and those elected civilian officials who we do accept as being in total command of the military strategic goals and policies. I believe that criticism, even disrespectful criticism, of the elected superiors is different than that of superiors in charge of day to day operation. I've heard too many guys talk about how dumb various policies are in the army. Shall we charge all those barracks rantings with violations of the UCMJ? I think not.

Only if we make it retroactive and prosecute those who disrespected Bush when he was CIC. If not, you are being a hypocrite.

Maybe you wouldn't need to question if I felt the same about President Bush if you would have read my earlier responses; I doesn't matter who the president is or what he looks like.

I just find it odd that you never heard anyone asking this question while Bush was POTUS. My point remains, unless you go back and retroactively charge those folks who were bashing Bush, it is hypocritical to charge those who are now bashing Obama. How many people were charged for disrespecting Bush? How many people were charged for disrespecting Clinton? How many people were charged for disrespecting Bush Sr.? How many people were charged for disrespecting Reagan? How many people have ever been charged for disrespecting any POTUS? Why change the standard now to protect Obama?

For your information, I asked the same question when President Bush was in office.
