I would have joined a military coup against an anti USA civilian leadership, knowing the probability was high that I would die or be imprisoned for the rest of my life. So we circle back to why my entire wing was on lock down, when Carter passed through... The oath to fight "against all enemies, foreign or domestic" is one that many swear, but few completely understand, untll they are faced with the unthinkable.
I was unfortunately around Carter and Clinton quite a bit and was never locked down nor entertaining thoughts of military coups.
But Carter never asked me to fight in support of Communists, and Clinton never asked me to fight in support of Saddam. As much as I disliked them, I knew a Republican would come along. Reagan came along, for instance.
Obama on the other hand is asking people to fight on the side of Al Qaeda. I wonder if we should be forming some kind of legal defense fund for those who are conscientious objectors when it comes to fighting for Al Qaeda. My son is in the Marines and daughter is in the Air Force, and I have no problem with them bowing out of this one. Both are going to be leaving anyways as soon as they can - they have seen the writing on the wall and the GOP insistence of running liberals on the ballot like Bush/McCain/Romney and know that it's a trend that will not stop.

ROTFLMAO.
LIAR!
I know Carter was informed he would endure a military coup.
IDK (lol) what “they” told Clinton.
That “they” got nervous about allowing civilian idiots to try to control the DOD is something only seasoned veterans will appreciate.

(Extortion 17. A large number of Navy SEALs died on that mission. Ask why.)

.
He is merely asking people to fight on his side.
