My son wants to join the military when he is old enough. I told him that I until we got rid of all of the PC nonsense, and the scum running our govt, joining the military was a bad idea. He was saddened, but agreed that it would be a foolish move to risk his life for scum who would just as soon put him in prison.

I don't recommend that anyone join the military these days. Do you want Obama making life or death decisions for your family? Also, as you can see here, many military leaders are nothing but a bunch of PC-obsessed careerists themselves. They are not worth following, and the people who represent the greatest threat to our liberty are right here in this country. Just my opinion.

Mine also and he just turned 18. He understands what is happening and has friends that are in and telling him to wait. So it's off to trade school until the military leaders quit this PC and ROE crap...if it ever does.

I served many years in the military (from JFK through Bill Clinton) and saw the sea changes which took place in the military because of Political Correctness. Few of them were good or healthy for the military, in the opinion of most of us who were there. But we all accepted it as part of the job and made the best of it.

My last 5 years I served under Bill Clinton. Most of those I served with either disliked or despised him. A few even thought he was OK. Even though he was bad, he was not that bad and nobody imagined it could get worse under an American President - after all, it was bad under Jimmy Carter, too.

Now this fraud shows up to show us just how wrong we were...

I can't imagine serving under this present Scumsucker-In-Chief. It must be especially discouraging for those who served under George W. Bush who for whatever his faults did not lack heart for his troops. It must be truly an ordeal to know Zer0 not only doesn't have your back, but he is busily and cheerily painting a bulls-eye on it!

I vividly and bitterly remember how we were sold out in Vietnam and the high price so many paid there only to be betrayed in the end. Now the same thing is happening in Afghanistan and eventually all around the globe.

This business with prosecuting the SEALs is an outrage, but is just part of the bigger picture of calumny which really kicked in during January, 2009!

"Our diversity, not only in our Army, but our country, is a strength" - Gen. George Casey, after the Ft Hood Massacre

Zer0 is a fool, and has surrounded himself with them.

My daughter will soon be turning 18 and is interested in the military’s nursing program. I don’t want her anywhere near the armed forces until we get a president who respects them and who’s not a subversive socialist bastard.
