So, I looked at these so called lists. I have yet to find one with 197 names. The best that I was able to do was 158. That list only contained the names of 12 general officers/Admirals. Several of those names are complete bunk: wrong ocean, wrong offense, wrong circumstances. This whole storyline falls apart within about 10-15 minutes using a simple Google search.
But, instead we get a gang of commentors who haven’t read the articles, haven’t done any fact checking, don’t have any understanding or knowledge of what goes on every day. I seriously doubt that Obama, or anyone else it the White House was involved in a single one of these incidents, with the exception of Petreaus and McChrystal. These things just don’t happen that way. The political class doesn’t know who these people are, don’t care what they do, and are not involved when they need to be fired.
Obama is the worst President in recent memory, perhaps the worst ever. We have plenty of substantive things to use in our attack against Obama. This is not one of them.
From the article:
Retired U.S. Army Maj. Gen. Paul Vallely, an outspoken critic of the Obama administration, notes how the White House fails to take action or investigate its own officials but finds it easy to fire military commanders “who have given their lives for their country.” Vallely thinks he knows why this purge is happening.
