I was referring to a specific quote from a poster who spoke ridiculously of another poster watching Obama burn the Constitution and piss on its ashes, and then assisting Obama in the execution of any officer who disagreed. I was making a point that it is, in fact, a deliberate insult to use such phrasing to describe the relative moral awareness of a military officer.
Obviously, if Obama has burned the Constitution and invited everyone over to watch him piss on its ashes, he is overtly overthrowing the entire United States government. For such a ridiculous postulation, the term “government” is used in lieu of the Constitution from which it derives to describe the obvious totality of actions to which no military officer could be oblivious.
Thank you for your obtuseness.
Government and Constitution are hardly the same. One reassures me that I have worth; the other scoffs at me and tells me that I do not matter in any significant way [if not specifically in word than in action & attitude]. One *is* a legal authority, the other *claims* legal authority. One is capable of being corrected (we call it Amendment), the other will not take responsibility for its shortcoming or wrongdoings.
