Ever served as one? Because you are dumber than shit. You are dead wrong and unfortunately we won’t get to see Kelly from the yardarm, but reduced, forfeiture of all pay and allowances and time in the bighouse is on the table. He is a dumbass, and if you can’t discern his dumbassery you got no business serving even as an enlisted man.

I'm sure you do, the guys who got things done, made sure their troops get the recognition they deserved, never missed a flight due to AC availability, had the respect of their peers and their men because of how they conducted themselves. Sounds like you weren't of my TYPE. Better for the US that way.

Your gut is as hosed as your judgement. No wonder you side with these shitbags. Corps doesn’t have enlisted pilots anymore.

Well you behave like sullen enlisted. Anyhow it’s all moot, none of your dreams of retaliation will befall Mark Kelly.

We already had the Admiral of the task force in Venezuela resign rather than continue to carry orders he felt were not legal.

As far as I am concerned Trump’s orders to shoot these boats out of the water and kill those people was over the top and not necessary. Those boats could have been interdicted and boarded to be searched as the usual custom.

I will remind folks that in 1949 we had the revolt of the Admirals, including Fleet Admirals Nimitz and Halsey.

None of those Admirals were court-marshled

I’m so damn tired of Republicans/conservatives “threatens, warns, suggests, may, could, is looking into…”

And always, nothing.

Except when Trump takes decisive action and a leftist judge quickly stops it.

What you do not understand is the dems are working in tandem. What Kelly said is true and is in the handbook. But what isn’t in the handbook is other dems like pritzger and mayor Johnson saying and telling people that what Trump is doing is illegal. You see Kelley and his group is merely planting the seed while the other dems are cultivating it. Then you have the main stream media spreading it.

In a way, they are doing the old Clinton “It depends on what the meaning of is is.”

If they coordinate their statements artfully, if they each say just enough, but not too much, then they think they can cohesively say outrageous stuff and get away with it because the specific statement from each specific individual is technically just fine. It’s an real art.

Knowing right from wrong. I'll take it while you cower with these pussies trying to destroy the US. You never said if you actually 'served' as an officer, wouldn't think any service would commission a woebegotten POS like yourself. Continue to fight for these mutineers, it suits you.

Got a link or are you like the Fake News and just making it up? If that was indeed his reasoning, he is still on the hook for all them boats and anymore until 12Dec. Lacks the courage of his convictions. Like him, you haven't read LOAC.

Were those Admirals calling for their subordinates to disobey order they didn't like? Not even in the same realm let alone universe.

lieutenant calley was at the bottom of the totem pole and we all know $hit flows downhill, that is why it was all pinned on him. As far as I am concerned, everything that happened in the bush in vietnam, needed to stay in the bush.

Trump gave the pentagon until December 10th to investigate and make a decision on Kelly.

It is so good to see consequences applied to Democrats for a change. Maybe we will see some sanity slowly return.
