Absolutely sick, pathetic, and criminal for the chairman of the House Armed Services Committee to lie to the public about how unlawful orders are called out and disobeyed all the time in the military.
"Just following orders" didn't work at Nuremberg I and won't work at Nuremberg II.
54 votes against... is not overwhelming.
The 40 for is pathetic. Republicans did not care enough to vote.
We’re not even in the storm yet. This is just the clouds on the horizon.
Many probably moved and have jobs now.
Give them all retirement benefits, and take the money from Ukrainian grifters.
No surprise here, the Democrats never really considered the military members part of their constituency, so there’s that.
Nope, their constituency would be the illegal aliens, convicted felons . . .
“that’s the way it has to work in the military. Orders are not optional in the United States military,” said Congressman Adam Smith (D-Wash.), the outgoing chairman of the House Armed Services Committee.”
Big talk from a weasel career politician that never spent any time in the military.
Disgraceful
Adam Smith is a bastard. Like his BFF inslee, there’s no reason why they’re in office other than the voters are morons collectively.
The U.S. Military is in big trouble. All they can recruit these days are freeloading, border-jumpin’, illegal aliens. The trouble with these idiots is that they are naturally cowards. Yellow bellies who would rather run than fight. Rather than stand up against the Socialist and communist governments they installed, they run for the border like a bunch of thieves who just burglarized the local Taco Bell. This country is in big trouble.
Who voted against the troops in the GOP?
There’s a problem, Smith’s district has a large military base and the populace is full of vets!? There’s no excuse for him representing North Pugetopolis other than everyone in the 3 county Pugetopolis area are insane.
Take a wild guess
Probably the Romney crew.
There is a definite parallel between the sodomites in the current government and those of Nazi Germany.
No shot and you’re gone but publicly show your perversions in uniform and you’re gold.
I’m not even confident of readiness anymore.
Where’s the list of the 4 and the list of the 6?
Bingo!
The Dems view would seem to put the "Nurenberg Defense" back on the table. As far as orders are optional, the view ignores the oath taken by commissioned officers to the Constitution.
> “Orders are not optional in the United States military,” ... <
I am disappointed to think any government official believes that. Illegal or immoral orders are more than just optional. They are not to be obeyed.
Yes it is. And it deserves to be.
