Maybe the General is going to run in 2016.
Totalitarianism is a resume enhancement for the left.

Hey, Major Gen. Paul D. Eaton. Here's your new job.

After that you can wipe his ass for him.


Americans love and respect our Soldiers, but not your breed.

Paul Eaton is one of the whiney sniveling generals from a few year’s back:

“...Joining the criticism earlier this week was retired Army Maj. Gen. John Batiste, who served as an infantry division commander in Iraq until last November. He called for a “fresh start at the Pentagon,” accusing Rumsfeld of ignoring sound military decision-making and seeking to intimidate those in uniform.

Earlier calls for Rumsfeld’s replacement came from retired Marine Gen. Anthony Zinni, retired Marine Lt. Gen. Gregory Newbold and retired Army Maj. Gen. Paul Eaton.

The most nettlesome member of Bush’s Cabinet, Rumsfeld has been a lightning rod since the war began in March 2003... “

Someone give the general a copy of the Constitution. Let him point out where it places the Senate in the “Chain of Command” under the President.

Uhh... they’re not in the chain of command. And so has demonstrated every Dem Congress Critter that went overseas to defy Reagan and Bush.

The US Sentate is not in the President’s chain of command, but is a co-equal branch of government. These leftists just double and triple down on stupid. And hope the media will carry their water.

Retired Army Maj. Gen. Paul Eaton, who was in charge of training the Iraqi military from 2003 to 2004, appeared last night on HBO’s Bill Maher Show.

“We are in the midst of recovering right now from a constitutional crisis where you had the executive trump the other branches of government,” Eaton said. “Thank god” Congress changed hands in November, he said, giving us “a chance to unsort and figure out how to get out from under this.”

Eaton lamented that so many service members believe that conservatives “are good for the military.” “That is rarely the case. And we have got to get a message through to every soldier, every family member, every friend of soldier,” that the Bush administration and its allies in Congress have “absolutely been the worst thing that’s happened to the United States Army and the United States Marine Corps.”

Sorry, General, but since the Senate is a co-equal branch of the government to the Presidency, the Senators have every right to make their opinions known. Furthermore, they are absolutely correct to point out that unless the agreement is ratified by the Senate, the United States is not bound by it. The next President can ignore it. So there!
