The Military Times posted a long article in which its poll of active duty military came to the startling conclusion that Obama, the Commander-in-Chief, is highly unpopular among the rank and file of the nation’s defenders! Using the military for social experiments, purging the ranks of competent, patriotic leaders and implementing a massive reduction in force are not likely to endear Obama to the troops. The Military Times won’t admit it but Obama does not care about the people who work for him and this is especially true for members of the military. In spite of varying opinions of President Bush, he deeply cared about the troops. Obama on the other hand, by his own actions, cares only about Islamic terrorists, his global partners in crime.
Our troops have lost respect not only for the Commander-in-Chief, but for lawmakers in general, reflecting a growing trend among their millennial peers. The phony nature of Obama’s ostensibly caring façade has long since been discovered. People have lost faith in government and see it as the problem, not the solution. Service members are reflecting the mood of the American public and its frustration with the daily soap opera being fed them by Administration acolytes in the “mainstream” media. How could it be otherwise when soldiers are feeling the pain of pay reductions, being forced out of the service and watching as peers are court marshaled for doing their job? And how many have been wounded or killed as a result of repeated deployments under questionable rules of engagement.
Obama’s social engineering is being compared to President Truman’s 1948 order that desegregated the American military that was originally segregated by another Democrat, Woodrow Wilson after World War I.

So long as it doesn’t interfere with his ‘vacations’ and golfing he simply doesn’t care what the military thinks of him .... and fire those generals ....
A very dangerous procedural error here.....I don’t see a lead car nor a chase car for the wide load stepping out of that poor helicopter.
A military man would notice the foam cup in the right hand of our illustrious commander in chief whilst he is returning the respect of salute offer to him by the enlisted Marines attending.
“Obama does not care about the people who work for him”
****
The military does not work for Obama. And the punk’s responsiblity is to work for the United States, not vice versa.
We aren’t his subjects. He isn’t a king.
Stand by for an IRS audit and a home search by the Justice Department for a “reported” illegal firearm.
As St. Thomas More related - Tyrants tend to wear out the people.
I know some troops who utterly despise him.
“We aren’t his subjects. He isn’t a king.”
He thinks we are. He thinks he is.
They sure as hell won't be hard to find. I would guess that 99% of the military shares their feelings toward the usurper in chief.
Top Democrat: ‘Un-American’ to Question Muslim Lawmaker on Intel Panel
by Wynton Hall16 Jan 2015
Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said those who criticize the appointment of Democratic Rep. Andre Carson (D-IN) to the Intelligence Committee because he is a Muslim are “un-American.”
Schiff, who is the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, said he has been “deeply disturbed” by the reaction by some to Carson’s appointment last week.
“I am deeply disturbed that since his appointment to the committee, Congressman Carson has been subject to vicious, anti-Muslim attacks online and in social media, questioning his loyalty to our country solely because of his faith.”
Actually, not anywhere near 99% in my experience. There are many in the service who view it as a job, a means to an education or funding for the numerous children born out of wedlock. I commanded said people, although I would say there was still a majority for whom at least a part of their motivation for service was patriotism. The best service members are those who love what they do along with loving America, in my opinion.
