....retired Gen. John Allen told ABC News George Stephanopoulos that electing Trump could cause a civil military crisis, the like of which weve not seen in this country.
...Thats a pretty damning statement. Unfortunately, its even more damning for the left when you consider who Gen. Allen is....
Allen was, at one point, the White House coordinator for anti-Islamic State group efforts. Along with Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Susan Rice, and the whole sick crew, he was responsible for the policy of treating the Islamic State as the JV team a bunch of angry, stupid teens who had somehow found Kalashnikovs and were taking their angst out on the world...
Thats not all. He was also responsible for the funding and arming of so-called moderate Islamic rebels in Syria. Lo and behold, these were the rebel groups who ...belonged to the Islamic State group. Others merely surrendered their weapons...
Oh, by the way, you may have noticed that Gen. Allen is retired. That wasnt by choice: Much like his patron, Democrat nominee Hillary Clinton, he has a little bit of an email problem. And much like her husband Bill, the problem has to do with sex.
As Breitbart bluntly put it, Allen was forced to resign after having essentially having phone sex via more than 30,000 emails with an attractive Tampa, Florida, married socialite.
Leaving aside the mechanics and logistics of this (30,000 emails over two years while he was stationed in the deserts of Afghanistan? How exactly did he ever get around to issuing orders?), theres also the dereliction of duty, not to mention the possibility of blackmail.
This is the man who wants to talk about a crisis of military leadership, and this is what hes responsible for. Moreover, hes acting as a surrogate for the woman who allowed the cancer that is the Islamic State group grow into what its become.
Thanks! It was a good move.
Re “How did he get any work done”? Well, it’s all in how you define “work”. (Hattip to Bill Clinton).
Are those paratrooper wings? His biography says he was jump master at Annapolis.
General Allen had phone sex? lol Gen. Allen’s emails with a married woman should be a riot. Bet her husband was not thrilled.

Maybe some cowbell too.
That device is to show he was a Recon Marine - how he has fallen ...
Jump wings, yes. Doesn’t mean “combat award”.
I was looking for Silver Star or above; or Bronze Star, Navy/Marine Corps Commendation (which he has 4), Navy/Marine Corps Achievement, etc. WITH “V”, or the Combat Action Ribbon.

Biography on DoD website makes no mention of Force Recon. If he was in Force Recon, I would think that would be Number 1 on the list. Anyway, he has now disgraced the Marine Corps. Shame. Proves once again that education is not the same as smart.

And Paula, David P's gf, was pissed! Here was her beau falling for this Jill Kelley townie trash!
Paula, despite being a distinguished West Point grad herself, failed to resist the understandable urge to nasty-gram Jill via Gmail.
Jill complained to the FBI over the email threats she was getting. It wouldn't have gone anywhere — the threats were too mild — except Jill was also friends with an FBI agent, who successfully pressed the Bureau to pursue the case.
They did, and they traced the emails back to Paula, and thence to the DCI, General David Petraeus. Game over for Petraeus!
I agree with all that you said.
Jump wings just mean successful completion of Jump school.
Force Recon is a totally different animal.
If you educate an idiot, all you get as a well read idiot.

Those aren’t boobs,they’re hidden microphones.
Someone ask Allen what did Petraeus have for lunch?
LOL! Proofreaders are desperately needed. It should be "for all intents and purposes" Sheesh!

Boy this lady REALLY gets around with generals wonder what else is REALLY going on here!!!
LOL what a mental case.
This Lebanese woman had free access to CENTCOM.
She was waved right in through the gates. Once there she hobnobbed with all the brass.
Great security at CENTCOM.
If I’m not mistaken, the socialite and her sister are of Lebanese parents.
Ther were threads on FR at the time of the Petraeus scandal. One of those women had a fight and email threats with Petraeus’ mistress, Treadwell, that caused the FBI to check their emails, and the rest is history.
