I work for a large defense contractor. the majority of the engineers are white men, a growing percentage white female, and a growing percentage Asian and some indian.
very few other minorities because when we’ve brought any in (btw, its amazing that there are close to zero African American men with engineering degrees), they just cannot do the job.
however, in any type of admin position, there is a purge, bringing in managers who are mostly black female. old white managers are being offered retirement packages. a friend of mine, employed there for over thirty years, had two hundred people, then told we’re taking everyone away and you’re going to be an individual contributor. he retired.

I have a feeling it’s either much ado about nothing or more Chuck Hagel than Obama. My guess is it’s more to do with expressing their displeasure to somebody about gays in the Military.

From Wiki (2011 figures)

U.S Army 438,000 enlisted 98,000 officers
U.S Marine Corp 170,000 enlisted 21,000 officers
U.S Navy 260,000 enlisted 52,000 officers
U.S Air Force 265,000 enlisted 64,000 officers

The U.S Army officer pool, 5% are O-6 (Colonel), .5% are 3 Star Generals.

So one O-6 in the Army being booted out represents .01% (assuming the unattributed figure of 10,000 Army Colonels, 5%)

Either our flag officers are hopelessly inept and/or corrupt or there’s a major purge going on.

Either option isn’t good at all for us.

Yet, misconduct at the executive level seems to get a blind eye. Does our lack of confidence in the executive branch mean anything? Apparently not.

Stalin did something very similar in the 1930’s with disastrous results.And to think that all this time I thought that Osama Obama was modeling his life after Mao's.

Where is Congress on this.

If they will not protect our military, they are to blame.

“Ew, Eww, we can’t win” is not an argument acceptable for any argument, based on any circumstance any time in history.

If this is a purge or the continuation of a purge by 0dumb0 against our military officers, then the purged officers need to grow a set of balls & go public with this. And a military coup by the purged officers to restore our Republic is way overdue!!! Either way, the commie pig muzlim 0dumb0 traior-in-chief needs to be removed from office.

The comments at Stars and Stripes tells a different story...of a respected commander.
