The good news is that they went anyway. I see this as compelling evidence that a lot of military and civilian personnel serving overseas have completely lost faith in their chain of command.

Is it any wonder that the U.S. soldiers at that base in Afghanistan were all disarmed when Leon Panetta showed up for a visit? I've suggested before that a full-blown insurrection among U.S. military personnel may not be such an outlandish possibility.

Right on! They did this to the military people when Bill Clinton was in office as well. Strange thing is: I don’t ever remember them disarming the U.S. Military forces when Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, and George W. Bush were in office; or even other presidents before them, did they?

After Bill Clinton, I never thought this would be done to our American forces again. Or for that matter, any president would ever be allowed to dishonor our citizens again! Then 8 years after Bill Clinton left office, another president gets in and does the some of the same things and gets away with it again! It seems so many people are suckers for smooth-talking, lying rascals; then the rest of us have to live with them too!
