Our volunteer military better not turn on us...

Sorry to say, but most will "follow orders".

Okay, Podesta, then we will not “underestimate” anything you say. And don’t ever underestimate the will of the American people.

For instance, he protected more great spaces in the lower 48 states than any president since Theodore Roosevelt

Yeah, Clinton presided over a massive Federal land grab. Podesta obviously believes that's a good thing, because his vision of Government is as a despotic, arbitrary power that rules a People, not an organization that humbly enacts the commands of the People.

Firing on our own citizens was stated to be considered an illegal order.
Then there are also laws against such actions...

Obama can use executive orders, rulemaking, and even the armed forces “to accomplish important change” and that such means “should not be underestimated.”
Buy an eclectic car or we will gun you down?

Buy health care or we will put you in front of the firing squad?

I believe that the Army cannot discharge soldiers simply because they are HIV+. They cannot deploy them, either.

I am opposing openly gay in the military.

I SAY BRING IT ON, PODESTA!

FORCE YOUR PUPPET PRESIDENT OBAMA TO DO YOU WISHES!

WE KNOW THAT IT’S NOT REALLY A FREUDIAN SLIP WHEN OBAMA TOLD HIS SUPPORTERS TO “PUNISH YOUR [US] ENEMY”!

“PAGING HENRY BOWMAN!”

Surely this is an unintended consequence of my post! :)

Okers.
The wording of the second half of your post didn’t sound like it.
*shrugs*
Been a long day on my end.

Will this be the refurbished Armed Forces...after the (Dream) Nightmare Act, that allows ILLEGALS into our military?

“Can anyone recall someone who has worked directly with the President on a day to day basis advising the use of military on its own people? What other time in history has this counsel been given?”

Just take a look at the US government’s response to unions and strikes in the 19th Century. Not to mention their response to the Bonus Army in the early 20th. It has been done. Repeatedly.

"Don't worry, did you read the replies?"

Whew, someone wrote words. That was a close one.

I have warned conservatives many times that the communist playbook calls for crushing their enemies physically.

You have, indeed, fellow patriot and so have I and others who understand the menace of communism, Stalinism and the other oppressive isms. These people must be exposed and stopped...

I think The Blaze is overstating things. Never hurts to be prepared, but based on being in and around the military since 1970, I cannot imagine our uniformed heroes / heroines ‘turning against us.’ Let not your heart be troubled.

Go for it you A-Hole, Podesta. If you want a real war you are about to get just that!

Now we know where Clinton got his support and “understanding” of the laws/rules when he pushed through so much crap. Thanks, Podesata, you creep.
