The officers he attacks are now civilians with full First Amendment rights. Did SecDef Panetta 'suggest' Gen. Dempsey go nuclear on these vets?

"In videos aired this month, the group said the Obama administration endangered the United States and the safety of troops by allegedly spilling secrets about operations, including the American raid last year that killed Osama bin Laden."
This group of patriots is 100% correct.

I have a visceral reaction to this general’s statement, and have been searching for a polite way to express it. I can’t.
So F’ you general!

Good order and discipline should require active duty officers to keep their opinions to themselves. But once they are out of uniform then the restriction is off and they should be free to express their opinion, same as every other American.

It looks to me like General Dempsey is an Obama Toady.What an Idiot.
I Guess he expects all former military people to just roll over and play dead for his god Obama.
Well as far as that go's,I stay with the Constitution over Obama any day.General Dempsey,We know where his loyalties lie.

Wading into a potential minefield during a hotly contested White House race, Dempsey voiced his disapproval of a group of retired military members and CIA officers who have accused Obama of spilling sensitive national security details to help secure his re-election.*************************************
Unacceptable. Retired military and CIA have the right to free speech.

Hey General,
I’ve fully and wholly enjoyed exercising my 1st Amendment freedoms after serving over 20 years to defend them for others.
Once we hang up the uniform, we become CITIZENS again. Understood?
Your comments are duly noted, “sir”.
