Well, yes; and Obama has been busily transforming the US military. I think it is now an open question if the military would fire on the US citizenry. Give Obama a little more time, a second term for instance, and the military will shoot US citizens who fight Obama. The Regime will make it look pretty, label it fighting domestic terrorism, etc., but it will happen.
And that is precisely the point on which Obama is vastly different then Romney. They may be headed toward the same cliff, but would have a substantially different impact on moving the military away from the constitution. Romney has deep and significant flaws, but he does not have a history emulating crack pot dictators.
Even after serving 7 years of active duty, I am not sure the US military would not fire on civilians. IMHO.

However, this is not the same military as the Vietnam era military. It is much more conservative and much more educated. Obama and his goons know this and consider it problamatic as to whether or not this military will support him. That’s why he made his poorly reported and vetted “we can no longer rely on our military” speech. He tipped his hand in that speech when he stated that “we need a civilian service that’s just as powerful”. I’m paraphrasing from memory but you get the idea. So, when we see that he’s going to hire 15,000 IRS agents, who by the way, are considered armed law enforcement officers same as the FBI or our hard partying Secret Service, LOL, we know where the source of his enforcement force will come from. These will be “his” guys and gals, loyal to him personally. Stay tuned....
