Legally, no. They cannot.

Why can’t some special op team come up with the goods on Obama’s lack of citizenship and get rid of him??

Thank you for stating the obvious.

Apparently it wasn't obvious to the poster to whom my comment was addressed. President Bush's name did not have to be crossed out from the quote in order to add the words "a patriot."

I take it as meaning they thought they were still dealing with someone with some sense.

If push comes to shove, can a General, or Generals, force the CIC to be removed from duty?

No.

I’ll add a “standing ovation” to jwalsh07’s, “Hear, hear!”, Wolfstar.

:)

It's been an awfully long three weeks with 'Oh' in charge. God only knows where we'll all be four years from now.

Others have answered my question too, but I do thank you for confirming what I’ve learned. The reason that question came to mind was from watching old movies. How ‘bout that? I was thinking of an old war movie, where one of the naval officers released his commander from duty due to him becoming rather unglued.

No problem at all. It happens to me at times too.

Yes he does. We were lucky to have him. And if he’s upset with Obama, count me 100% behind him.

I’m usually an optimist, but it’s getting harder and harder to keep a positive attitude. With President Obama and the Dem’s in control, they have the power to embrace their inner socialist and force it on the rest of us. Once laws are passed, they can be very difficult to change, if not impossible.

Pigs are feeding at the trough....

"He has a third choice. He can go to the people and express concerns about what he is being ordered to do."

He can only do that if he resigns his commission......and it could come to that.

Glad it’s not just me (double posting). And, like you, I’m behind our General 100%. I’d like to think that all true patriots are.

Good to see you Wolf. And you are absolutely right, it is going to be a long, and dangerous I might add, 4 years.

When I say that, it should be clear that I will back him to the full extent I can. It would have to be an incredibly extreme situation where I would back a general doing anything outside the codes of military conduct with regard to the presidency.

Petraeus should never take an endorsement such as my own to infer otherwise. And I consider it an insult to infer that he wouldn’t understand that without my stipulation. I wouldn’t seek to infer that at all. I just want it on the record.
