Well, ok, you “went there.” So where is the military? Are you ready for another bleak thought? Wonder why O hasn’t followed through and brought the military home from Iraq and Afghanistan like he “promised?” Think he really cares about defeating terrorists? I think it’s a Caesar-esque tactic of keeping the legions far away so they can’t oppose the king.

As was discussed here, during last year's election campaign Obama himself stated he wanted to form a "civilian" security force equal to our military. That was a clear reference to a sort of "Praetorian Guard" or "Geheime Staatspolizei".

The signs were there all along - the American people just refused to see.
