'Black lives matter': Navy SEAL who oversaw bin Laden raid says he voted for Joe Biden
Business Insider ^ | Oct 19 2020 | David Choi, Ryan Pickrell

Retired Adm. William McRaven wrote an op-ed article Monday in The Wall Street Journal saying he held certain conservative viewpoints but also believed in ideas like "Black lives matter."

He wrote that he voted for the Democratic presidential nominee, Joe Biden, because "we need a president for all Americans, not just half of America."

McRaven has been an outspoken critic of President Donald Trump, who he has accused of harming American values and tearing down US institutions.

Old adage demanding flag officers go to Command and General staff school to turn their brains to peanut butter seems to hold true. Anyone who once wore a military uniform and votes to give our country to China deserves to be shoot. Getting him retired and out of the way made our military stronger!

Mc-CRaven is NOT a "conservative".

He's a lying piece of yella Mitt.

On the subject of leadership, McRaven wrote in Monday’s article that “if we remain indifferent to our role in the world, if we retreat from our obligation to our citizens and our allies and if we fail to choose the right leader, then we will pay the highest price for our neglect and shortsightedness.”
*************************************************************

In my opinion, McRaven’s words above are code for “I’m a bought and paid for Globalist/Elite/Democrat and we need more wars to keep my Special Forces boys working (and dying!)”.

In this long article, no mention was made of the fact that McRaven was fired from the University of Texas or why he was fired.

I guess McRaven is ignoring the MORE THAN HALF the people, in his comment that Biden is for ALL the people, who support Trump. No surprise.

It’s a shame he didn’t die in the raid.

McRaven? Pffft.

Go make your bed.

Anybody with a zest for life and things to do has better things to do first thing in the morning than make their bed. I still do because I can’t stand sloppiness but not so that I will have a sense of accomplishment for having done something first thing in the morning.

Never thought much of the guy, besides him being a t-sip.

He didn’t oversee the raid. He didn’t plan it. He watched it on TV.

Compromised. It can only be that.

Today must be the day for pushing all of the ‘prominent voices on the right’ to come out for Biden. Michael Steele, Michael Medved, and now McRaven.

Compromised.

I got news for the general. Biden is not a guy for all Americans. Ask Hunter who the Big Guy is. I’m sure the general will get his cut of the American jobs being shipped to China.

Naw, he’s hedging his bets! What’s he and all the others got to lose in case the DNC steals the election? All these toadies will be back in power.
