Thank God I was able to serve in the military before all this Crying Game crap. Not that it mattered toward actually winning wars.

Trump not really looking for “input” so much as for the #s that show his policy is, in fact, the correct one.

“The bottom line, if Mattis was HALF as aggressive as all his memes and quotes implied”

Never forget that on his own volition during his senate confirmation he said...

Sounds exactly like something a democrat politician would say.

you can figure that the individual is NOT deplorable for at least 200 days.

Hee hee...[snort].

No, they are deplorable right away. From the very first day they said, "Man, I feel like a woman."

Rush was talking about this today. He’s saying Tillerson, Cohn and now Mattis are ignoring what Trump tells them to do. He went on to say that when Obama did his executive order and told his Def Sec Ash Carter clicked heels and said yes sir. There was no “further study”. If that’s the case Mattis needs to be fired and somebody installed as Sec of Defense who will do what the president orders.

There are other related articles, but finding them is a bit of a chore...

Haditha Incident Commander Speaks Out for the First Time

The criminal charges against Chessani were dismissed in June 2008 when Marine Corps military judge Colonel Steven Folsom ruled that Chessani was the victim of undue command influence by General James Mattis while the distinguished general was considering whether to charge Chessani and his men with crimes. After two appeals courts refused to overturn Folsom’s ruling, Chessani was forced to endure a Board of Inquiry last December to determine whether he would be allowed to retire at his present rank.

To quote one of Mattis' favorite philosopher on his recommended reading list:

"There is no wild beast, homosexual, Nero, or Phalaris, but obeys the twitchings of impulse." 'Meditations' Aurelius

Guy is beholden to social degeneration (Lapping up the PC teat) where superior fire power won't win you wars of attrition. Morale as well as discipline does, but unbridled faggotry degrades order, honor, harmony, and civilization. Sparta basically disappeared for a reason. A breakdown in order, rampant homosexuality, and yes "feminism" destroyed that extremely militaristic society after 360 or so BC.

Rush is full of crap, if that’s what he said.
