Col. Dooley, who was awarded the Bronze Star, the fourth-highest combat decoration

Nothing to do with the article, but people should become aware that every single 0-4+ and E-7+ who deploy get a bronze star. The award recommendations are typically written a few months into the deployment. It was one of the most distasteful aspects of my service. Anyone else have a different experience?

It is within the authority of the POTUS to appoint military officers, including general officers who are then confirmed by the US senate.

Thus, President Romney could commission Lieutenant Colonel Matthew Dooley as a Brigadier General, or perhaps Major General, to be the new commander of the Joint Forces Staff College.

And, for his part, General Martin Dempsey should in the near future look to his new job managing a turkey farm.

“Obama is a weak Coward and a weasel to boot”

0bummer is a muslim and an islamist; he’s a traitor and deserves summary trial & execution. IMO.

We have traitors in the highest ranks of the military. It will be up to veterans and their political allies to take them down because the active military is not in a position to do so.
