Mass resignation of the JCS, let's say, will not go unnoticed or un-commented on by even the most lame MSM outlet.
They'd do stories about it, for sure. What do you think the tone of the stories and follow-on analysis would be? Look at Phil Robertson for a clue, and far more John and Jane Does know who he is than who the Army's top general is.
It would cause reporting and wake the American people (for just a second) to what is going on.
And what is "going on"? Every second of news coverage about homosexuals and their so-called struggle is fawning. 9/11 itself didn't wake people up to the threat of Islam, you think some generals/admirals no one's ever heard of would make a dent in the overall opinion of homosexuality?
The Big Zero would then be caught forcing his most senior military leaders to accept a social agenda that most Americans object to.
Most Americans are being awfully damned quiet about homosexuality's constant progression in their own lives, I doubt they'd give a damn about the military.
Mass resignations would open the doors to a heck of a lot of nastiness in news reporting
By whom? His acolytes at MSNBC and CNN? Fox News is too busy covering Kim Kardashian and Justin Bieber.
...enraging the public as they would then know, have proof of, how the Big Zero is forcing politics into the military
You think that would enrage the public? Would they even notice? It's about "love" and "acceptance" to them, nothing more.
The net effect would be that a lot of good people would be gone and Obama and Jarrett (mostly the latter) would hand-pick the next group of senior leaders and flag officers. It would be big news for about a week, but it would be shouted down by those who are oh so tolerant.
That's it.
You would have people sacrifice decades of their lives for that.
Jarrett is already choosing who’s in charge. Look at how many have been purged.
Your post #193 is very convincing. I’m not saying it would have changed anything. What I’m saying is, had it been me, I would have resigned on principle. The problem is there are too many people in this country today who are willing to compromise their principles.
You asked “what then” and I postulated an honest opinion.
It didn’t fit your universe so you reply with an argumentative profanity (”BS”) and then go on to offer your own feelings which, using your standard, can qualify as “BS.”
I think a mass resignation of the JCS would raise the level of awareness whereas you feel it would not.
I think it would be an event noticed whereas you feel it would not.
Given your tag (”future snake eater”) I think you would have a fighting spirit, a never give up attitude, a fight for principle and integrity approach to life, because a snake eater is built that way. Apparently that is not the case.
You expressed yourself, I said my piece. Further exchange would be pointless so no need to reply. We will let thinking people decide.
(I have a bet with my close neighbor that you will give in to your juvenile nature and reply because. . .well, you have to have the last word, take the last shot. . it is simply your way.)
