We can think of rationalizations and reasons all day long, but at the end of it all, they failed to do their duty. They were Ottoman Pashas, reclining on divans and being fed grapes by slave girls and eunuchs, but didn’t they look magnificent in their uniforms?
“Oath? What oath? Constitution? Oh, that old rag....”
...and McChrystal and McRaven.
True. They exchanged patriotism for their base desires. Bottom line.
I personally think Obama planned it all in order to speed up his plan to destroy the military. He has been destroying the military from day one. Yes a downsize was needed as the Wars wind down, and yes money needs to be cut from the overall military budget- but it has been a hatchet job; the military is taking the brunt, the administration and media are lying by not truthfully reporting it and the cuts are not happening in other agencies as needed.

This mob will ruin the public’s opinion of the military...and it’s funding.
American-American people won’t forget the betrayal and they are the current population pool volunteering for service.
However, the foreigners and welfare mob who have no concept of American freedom, are impressed by Obama’s strong armed fascism and they are the future pool of citizens for our military.
American-Americans will reject military service in the future if it is anti-Christian/anti-American/anti-freedom. Americans are not going to risk their lives for the ideals of fascist globalism.
The US military had best hope there enough foreigners with enough votes/tax money to support the military industrial complex in the future. Problems is the foreigners and welfare mob would rather fund welfare and globalism - profit and power, devoid of morals, ethics and constitutional freedom, is not inspiring.
This is why we are hearing around returning to a draft. These amoral, anti-freedom stinkers can smell the future they have created.
