MCPO NYC USN (Ret.) sends us a link to the story that Oathkeeper\/Ron Paulian Michael Stein is being discharged for the Marines for his inability to stop posting his thoughts about the President and the upcoming election on a Facebook presence entitled “Armed Forces Tea Party” despite warnings from his leaders. From Fox News<\/a>;<\/p>\n

“I love the Marine Corps, I love my job. I wish it wouldn’t have gone this way. I’m having a hard time seeing how 15 words on Facebook could have ruined my nine-year career,” he told The Associated Press.<\/p>\n

Gary Kreep, an attorney for Stein, said he would pursue administrative appeals within the Marine Corps but anticipates the effort will be denied. He said he planned to file an amended complaint in federal court.<\/p>\n

“As long as he wants to pursue this, we will be supporting him,” said Kreep, who is executive director of the United States Justice Foundation, an advocacy group.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

He can say he loves the Marine Corps, but apparently he doesn’t love it so much that he’ll follow directions. You can say anything you want, as long as you don’t use your uniform to say it. That’s two who’ve been punished this year for making statements in uniform – Jesse Thorsen<\/a> and Michael Stein. Both of them were Paulians – and both thought the rules didn’t apply to them and their actions have resulted in more Power Point presentations for the rest of us. Yeah, I got one, too, a few weeks ago.<\/p>\n

And, yeah, his unfortunately named lawyer, Mr. Kreep, will continue to drag this through the courts as long as Stein has the means to pay…which might not be much longer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
