Speaking at the

Margaret Thatcher Conference on Liberty

last week in London, the ex-commander of U.S. forces in Afghanistan and Iraq essentially celebrated the end of U.S. independence - and by extension, the demise of the Constitution.

If this article is factual then one has to question the value of the US Military Academies to the Republic. If the values Petraeus espouses were implanted at the USMC the implication is that a substantial core of flag officers are of the same mind. We're neck deep in the big dukey now.
