Actually, you have wasted 40 years of taxpayer money.

[bgill]

who is also a former director of the National Surveillance Agency

'Nuff said.

[SoCal Pubbie]

I guess Obama going after the Supreme Court during the state of the union address was great for the separation of powers, eh general?

"The lady doth protest too much, methinks"

It’s one thing to discuss CNN in the abstract, but if that general or anyone else watches that channel for even 1 hour their level of bias and irrationality becomes frightening. They do not deserve defending.

[Navy Patriot]

Am I a bad person for thinking this is funny?

No, the CIA/Deep Swamp/CNN/DemoRat strategy is to get their enemies to laugh themselves to death.

Really.

[AndyJackson]

Retired general...

Misdirection in the title to give this an air of respectability. If they had simply said "ex-CIA Hayden continues his attack on Trump" the immediate reaction would be, can't this yammering fool give it a rest.

[chuckee]

“...the former spy chief, who now works as a national security analyst for the broadcaster, said in a Twitter post.”

So he is on CNN’s payroll. Isn’t this what is called singing for your supper?

[ROCKLOBSTER]

I have wasted 40 years of my life

Yes, you could have been flipping burgers, or cleaning toilets (either of which is more honorable than being a CNN RATagandist)...

But there's still time!

General officers never legally retire. They are placed on the retired list but are subject to recall to active duty at any time.

Like in active duty as defendant at a general court-martial!!?

[dynoman]

Noted: Nothing about CNN’s outrageous attack on Trump.

[central_va]

I wish people actually retired. And STHU.

[jeffc]

General Hayden added: "Until now it was not possible for me to conceive of an American President capable of such an outrageous assault on truth..."

Oh, I see. So Hayden was OK with obummer dissing FOX news?

[saywhatagain]

Hayden . . . Your 40 years was a waste of taxpayers money. Where the hell were you when Obama and his administration went after Fox News? You piece of bovine scatology

This from the New York Times October 11, 2009, Obama communications director speaking of Fox News

“We’re going to treat them the way we would treat an opponent,” said Anita Dunn, the White House communications director, in a telephone interview on Sunday. “As they are undertaking a war against Barack Obama and the White House, we don’t need to pretend that this is the way that legitimate news organizations behave.”

In mid-September, when the White House booked Mr. Obama on a round robin of Sunday morning talk shows, it skipped Fox and called it an “ideological outlet,”

That was just the beginning. It got far worse, you flaming piece of . . .

The utter stupidity boggles the mind.

[arthurus]

The CIA has always recruited mainly from Yale and Harvard and is run by Yale and Harvard grads. What more need be said?

[Lazamataz]

“If this is who we are or who we are becoming, I have wasted 40 years of my life,” the former spy chief said....

Yes, you did. FORTY years of your life are for naught.

Stew in the futility of your life.

Cry for me.

[TADSLOS]

No, you wasted 40 years of taxpayer money and became an enemy of the Republic in the process.

[Fido969]

Deep state, one-world order guy.

Spied on Americans while terrorists ran amok.

[Navy Patriot]

I am not positive, but I think that even though the dude is a retired General, he needs to watch his mouth. I think he is still subject to the UCMJ ...

Technically, any retired US Military Officer may be recalled to service and subjected to the UCMJ.
