Obama is weeding out all the Generals who might overthrow him—thats all. All dictators do this.

There is a certain mid-level Roman functionary who will be by to defend this shortly. Last time I beat him in by five minutes. I’m shooting for 3:16...

Its my assessment that these commanders did not disagree with the CIC but told the truth with respect to the situation. It’s the CIC and SOS that were dishonest. Does anyone else sum up the situation as such?

I’m sure it was Stalin’s position also.

Are any of the cashiered officers of the African-American variety?

The straight white guys have got to go. They're too aggressive to be in Barry's new military. It's the new Meals on Wheels and Keels military now. Hugs all around for everybody. Even our enemies.

Purge of Military Is Commander-in-Chief’s Prerogative, Says Hagel

Yes it is.
It is also our prerogative as citizens to call out the President for doing so. Even more so because he lacks any knowledge or understanding of the military having never served.

“The President must have men he can trust to carry out his orders.”

Mo. The United States needs men who can be trusted to obey their oath to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies both foreign AND domestic!

Way back when, part of my job was to write requests for commendations. When I looked at Hagel's DD214 and saw the two Purple Hearts and just an Army Commendation Medal, I had questions.

Why with two Purple Hearts were there not a Bronze Star or some other higher medal awarded?

I don't ever recall there not being a higher medal along with the Purple Heart.

Anyone have a differing experience?

Obama “loyalty” tests: Will you lie for me to Congress and the media? Will you commit to firing on unarmed American citizens?

Hagel emphasized that “whether or not these officers’ assessment of the situation was correct is not the point. Their open disagreement with their commanding officer is. President Obama needs to feel secure in the knowledge that the officers under his command have his back. By contradicting the official story on Benghazi these men left the president vulnerable to attack from his enemies in Congress and the media. Disloyalty of this magnitude is a dereliction of duty that we cannot, in good conscience, let slide.”

this is very concerning. in military matters, if the 'commander in chief' makes a mistake of that magnitude, it must be made known.
