Top generals: Obama is 'purging the military'
WND ^ | 11/1/2013 | F. Michael Maloof

Posted on 11/01/2013 6:24:45 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

Retired Army Maj. Gen. Patrick Brady, recipient of the U.S. military’s highest decoration, the Medal of Honor, as well as other top retired officers, say President Obama’s agenda is decimating the morale of the U.S. ranks to the point members no longer feel prepared to fight or have the desire to win.

-snip-

The reference was to the recent firing of a number of generals to mask “Obama’s serial scandals, all prefaced by lies...

WND reported that three of the nine firings by Obama this year alone were linked to the controversy surrounding the Sep. 11, 2012, terrorist attack on the CIA special mission in Benghazi, Libya.

In one case, U.S. Army Gen. Carter Ham, who commanded U.S. African Command when the consulate was attacked and four Americans were killed, was highly critical of the decision by the State Department not to send in reinforcements.

Obama has insisted there were no reinforcements available that night.

But Ham contends reinforcements could have been sent in time, and he said he never was given a stand-down order. However, others contend that he was given the order but defied it. He ultimately was relieved of his command and retired.

Now, new information in the Washington Times reveals there were Delta Force personnel in Tripoli at the time of the attack and two members volunteered to be dispatched to Benghazi to assist in protecting the Benghazi compound, contrary to stand-down orders from the State Department.

Another flag officer involved in the Benghazi matter – which remains under congressional investigation – was Rear Adm. Charles Gaouette. He commanded the Carrier Strike Group.

He contends aircraft could have been sent to Libya in time to help the Americans under fire. He later was removed from his post for alleged profanity and making “racially insensitive comments.”

Purging generals that would stand on their oath to protect and defend the constitution and it’s citizens both foreign and domestic....

Racially insensitive? That’s calling a spade a spade.

The operative question for consideration is...... do they still think they are obligated to the oath against enemies domestic?

So here's an idea General ... why don't you get on the phone and call some of your true patriot buddys.

THEN, you guys get together and develop a plan and use each other's friends to gather an army ... trust me ... there IS one out here ... just screamin' for a leader.

And we can at least get rid of the mulatto bastard (but I repeat myself) and take back the White House.

You'll get TONS of negative press and perhaps the stasi will harm or kill a few of us ... but by GOD we've got to do SOMEthing ... and we need a leader.

All it will take will be the senior Navy commanders who were on duty with the 6th Fleet when the Benghazi debacle occurred. They no doubt were monitoring the events, had an interventional plan ready to go within minutes and were ordered to stand down. They no doubt protested and were told to without question stand down. It would take only one or two to come forward.

Many of the troops are National Guard and I’m waiting for some Govenors to call troops back to their state.
1860 again?

We need help in the form of leadership. I agree.

Clearing the way for al Qaeda. Obama sacrificed American lives in Benghazi and then fired anyone who objected. It’s clearly cause for impeachment, but speaking out involves risks. Someone in the military doesn’t have the right of a fair trial.

Thats fine with me.

Our days of foreign adventures are over.

The weaker the military, the less they are able to oppress us.

The answer is of course yes...but what do you do when the domestic enemy is also your CIC.

the threat of losing benefits is probably a strong deterrent. But I just wish one would come forward and challenge this administration.
