But I have some doubts he could get most members of the military to turn against the rest of us. Oh, he's been trying by removing many of the old guard commanders and replacing them with gays and other protected classes beholden to him, but I don't think he has enough.

I know some of the senior level planners for this whole OP and I've gotta say that engaging in this training to the very best they can, will teach the troops involved the best ways to counter the plan should they ever be given the illegal orders to execute them on the civilian populace for real. I've been jokingly told that should they ever decide to invade Florida, I will be named as a warlord in the exercise. My point is that while I can't speak to the motivations of the conventional forces and in my opinion the real threat lies in each state national guard, based on my experience in the Florida Army National Guard. But the army special forces that I have grown to know and become close friends with at the 05/LTC levels are real patriots and take their motto seriously: To Free the Oppressed. Obama may launch such an order, but I think he will find there is a certain lack of clarity and even a pointed counter strike in the execution of whatever plans are hatched.

Thank you. I have noticed in the very few times Obama has addressed the troops, that it appears many of them don't like him. You can tell by looking at the faces and mannerisms of the audience that a good many of them don't want to be there, but they have to be because of orders from their superiors. Sometime (when you can endure a portion of one of Obama’s speeches to the troops) compare Obama’s speeches with those of past presidents. I'm sure there are many on You Tube. Even if the soldiers didn't like a president's politics, you could see that they respected their comnanders-in-chief. You don't see that respect from the military in any of Obama’s speeches.

So when I observe the inattention of the military to Obama in those speeches, it gives me some hope that should the king wannabe decide to round up us enemies of the state, he might have problems finding enough who will obey him.
