And, thus begins the final push to wreck what has been the best military in the world.
Kids can't pass their finals to graduate? Lower the standards. Too dumb to get into college? Lower the standards. People too fat to be accepted in the military? Lower the standards. Peaople can't meet the standards required of combat soldiers? Lower the standards.
Since lowering the standards for any institution or requirement that the left wants to destroy is what we do, why have them? Why (Constitution aside) have standards for POTUS, Congress, or SCOTUS? Why have standards for lawyers, teachers, dentists, doctors or engineers? Why bother seeking the best of the best instead of the next person in line? What's wrong with having a president who is 4 years-old (Obama)?
This is just the next step in the destruction of this country. As it stands now, our military has been so deeply cut and is stretched so thin that we would have a hard time defeating the military of Holland.
Ignorant foreign governments still send their military here to learn from us so that, in a future war, we may not only have to fight the enemy, but fight our own tactics and strategies as well. Smart. And, when foreign military students take their training elsewhere such as Russia, China or Germany, will that be a wake-up call for us? I doubt it. We will have lowered the standards so much that no one will understand the implications.
If lowering the standards is the left's answer to everything (including citizenship), why not drop the pretense that we're a real country? Let's drop everything that represents America and just become a giant commune with no rules, no borders and no requirements.
If you can't tell, I am beyond disgusted.
A nation of subjects doesn’t need standards, except those shifting standards deemed necessary for the permanant control of the state, ie...obamacare, taxation of wealth producers, and social engineering.
