Tea Party Marine sticks by his guns in fight with government, Obama

We read:
"A U.S. Marine whose Facebook posts led to a refresher course last week on the Pentagon’s directives on political activities is not running for cover as he continues to post or support material critical of the government and President Obama.

Sgt. Gary Stein created the Facebook group ‘Armed Forces Tea Party Patriots’ four weeks ago to voice his opposition to Obama’s health care overhaul.

Superior officers asked the 24-year-old Marine to review directives on political activities before he was interviewed on TV, and Stein removed the Facebook group — only to see it revived by a civilian member of a local Tea Party group hours later.

Stein now serves as an administrator of the group, which has more than 9,100 members, including some soldiers on active duty.”
