Generals take their orders from civilians. I'm a Stanford educated small business owner and that means I could probably do that job better than a civil servant for life. Got that?

Well as a civilian you apparently don't have a clue about the military. Thankfully you are not giving the orders because you don't know squat. Actions speak loud. Within 24 hours of being given the order to move in, troops under Honore's leadership had shut down the looting and general anarchy in NO and started facilitating the largest military evacuation of civilians ever.

Secondly, if you are inferring that Honore is a "civil servant for life" then you'd better be thanking your sweet little small business rear end that there are compent people like him protecting you. When it comes to commanding and leading soldiers, your little paper from Stanford amounts to nothing.

He took the name of the Lord GOD OF THE UNIVERSE in vain to promote his his little sideshow in front of the cameras. I think you ought to evaluate where the real power is.

I've a very good friend who is a mustang marine officer, served in Vietnam, and he told me his officer training included the ten commandments until the know-betters in Washington worried that we might be training zealots. We lost our zeal for righteousness and we started losing battles.

There is simply no excuse for an "officer and a gentleman" using that language in front of rolling cameras--and if you think so--you are a flat out ignoramus. If I'm ignorant of the average military joe's pig-like mouth, than I thank the Lord for it.
