The man calling the shots on Jade Helm is not named Barack Obama. His name is United States Marine Corps General Joseph Dunford, the new Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (as soon as he is unanimously confirmed by the U.S. Senate).
“Gen. John Kelly, head of U.S. Southern Command, told Marine Corps Times that Dunford — whom he described as his best friend — proved his quality and competence to the White House and others outside the Marine community particularly during his time as ISAF commander, during which most U.S. and coalition troops departed Afghanistan in a phased drawdown.
‘He’s got combat time as a no-kidding combat leader, and he’s a soldier-statesman as well,’ said Kelly, who has known Dunford for much of his Marine Corps career. ‘He did excellently in Afghanistan with some very difficult guys, including Afghanistan’s former president [Hamid Karzai].’”

Do you recall who the good general answers to? I guess he could get all out of joint over fluoride in the drinking water but barring that he follows orders just like any private.
