Loser? Obama or Col Rice? I’d say Rice - looks like he thinks if he kisses zero’s ass enough then he’ll get a star.....I absolutely detest military members that put their desire for a promotion ahead of this country....btw, before I get flamed, my dad retired after 26 years in the AF and I worked for DoD for 21 years before transferring to DoJ. Needless to say, in my 21 years I ran across alot of officers who were more interested in their next promotion then what was best for the country....and sad to say, I personally know a bunch of those idiots (retired general officers) who came out and endorsed zero....people that I considered friends and was absolutely shocked when they came out for the Kenyan instead of the Vietnam War hero! I’m still shaking my head and feeling such sadness!

When I use to work in DoD, a few of these high brass retired officers were full of themselves. I remembered one. He was from New Jersey and went to Rutgers University. He was so liberal. Yet, he retired as a Full Colonel in the US Army. He would be as some say in certain circles, a perfumed prince. He was one of those. Back in 2000, I got lectured by him for supporting Bush but he also lectured me how four wheeling should be banned due to being bad on the environment when he saw my truck. Of course, he drove a BMW. I wonder how much the rank and file troops respected him, probably not too much.
