No, not all military leaders were on board with the repeal. Many expressed grave concerns. To believe opposition was minor is to believe the lies of the left.
Sorry, you are not my enemy, but I don’t know what you are talking about. I do not listen to any MSM press. I stopped for health reasons years ago. I still get enough of them as FOX thinks they have to give them equal time to be fair and balanced. But, in the right wing press the silence from active military was deafening. I understand it would be the end of their career. That is what Patriots do. I do recall very tepid resistance reported on FOX and talk radio. Maybe it was there, but they did not get the word out. It can be done, there are plenty of avenues for “unnamed sources.” The brass was not there. The men in the field and on our bases- we heard from them. They feel betrayed by their own. To believe otherwise seems to be dreaming of a time gone by.
