This is just self-important and, frankly, disgusting. How many of the men you are smearing could you even name without looking it up. 10? 15, maybe?
The majority of general officers have been serving since the Reagan Administration - have you?
I do happen to know a few, and the ones I know have felt it was their duty to hang on and try to hold things together.
Here's one name: Gen. John Kelly, USMC, whose retirement I was privileged to attend in January. And if there is one four star like him, you can be damned sure he's not alone. You couldn't find a single Marine who served with that man who would follow him into hell...and back.
He gave a speech a few years back about two Marines who were killed in Iraq. It's a speech probably every American should read, and it's especially impactful given the circumstances under which he have it. Given those circumstances, I'd say you owen him that much.
So i'd ask that you read it, consider the man who gave it, and think twice next time before smearing all those men who have served their country their whole life. Perhaps some do, but the brush you used was way too broad.

And, if HE is for us, then who can stand against us?

If you want to burn down the GOP and build a principled alternative, Trump is at best a diversion from that task. At worst he’s going to not only burn down the GOP, he’s going to finish burning down the republic.
So it will take three years just to stop increasing the debt. By then it will be about 25 trillion. Look, we are in the debt quicksand. No way out. When you cut spending, you shrink the economy. Shrink the tax income. Forced bankruptcy and the splintering of the nation has to occur now. Of course the Uniparty Plan B is war with Russia. The debt won’t matter when entire cities are lost.
It was rigged, from the start. That is why you hear such screams of outrage from those who were responsible for rigging it from the start.
One man, a man many derided as a buffoon, *SINGLE HANDEDLY* overturned that rigged board. Will that man prevail in his quest for an honest election? At this point, none can say. But, I will still be grateful for his determination, and sheer guts in overturning that rigged board, fall fair, or fall foul.
I refer, of course, to Donald J. Trump, whom, no matter what opinion any one on this forum may hold of the man personally, we ALL owe a debt of gratitude...

The quote that always seems to come back to me.
Could that be because the truth of the quote is, like the Constitution itself, timeless in its nature?

Your worst-case scenario is such a low-probability event that it’s only worth acknowledging, but not worth using as a reason for voting against Trump.
He has built buildings and businesses for a living.
He is raising a magnificent family.
These two things alone, though far from exhaustive, are reasons why Trump will not burn down our republic, neither willingly not unwillingly.
Meant to end my posting with “neither willingly nor unwillingly.”
Hence, my tagline...
Sir Lazamataz,
I am a frequent FR reader. Your words have hit a chord in my heart and I am motivated to venture my first Reply on this system. Your thoughts are extreme and yet not at all untrue or exaggerated. The clarity of your thinking is a reality alarm bell. You may find you are called on to lead the thoughts of our “leaders” very soon. If the infrastructure of this internet is allowed to continue, I will likely be one who will remember where I heard clarity and true depiction of the “revolting development” the people of this country have acquiesced into existence by being sheep herded into the slaughter pens. Hope we meet.
Thank you for the slap in face and the fist in my gut !
More truth there than you may realize, nopardons. Carter *did* crater the nation, somewhat before he was replaced by someone with some sense (Reagan). I remember those days quite well...
the infowarrior
I vote Laz.
nopardons, Your posts are great on this thread.
Cruz is a fraud. Cruz is in this race to become rich.Trump is in this to save America .Trump
is already rich . In fact Trump is doing this at great sacrifice
Cruz is a false prophet just some reasons that I see that prove that.:
1.If we don’t stop the invasion of socialist illegal immigrants then the USA is over in a few years.
Cruz has done nothing to stop the invasion of socialist illegals into the U.S.A. that will vote to turn the U.S.A. socialist. Cruz is a fraud.
This web page shows how all of Cruz’s flip flops on trade and immigration prove he is a fraud and is for open borders. This is a must read for every American:
Only Trump will build the wall that will stop the illegals’ invasion of the usa
2.In 4 years as Senator Cruz has tried to pass no good laws that help America but only the worst laws ever TPA TPP(Trojan horse for Obama immigration agenda) and the corker bill .
Cruz voted for the Corker bill which allows Iran to build nuclear weapons.
3. Cruz wants to support Amnesty Rubio over Trump. This alone shows Cruz is a fraud.
4. Cruz Sided with the liberal media and used liberal media lies about Trump and the KKk
Duke didn’t even endorse Trump .
5. Cruz has been a senator since 2012 ,4 years, and hasn’t proposed any legislattion
to build a wall or notthing to stop the illegals’ invasiion of socialist 3rd world illegals into
the USA that is destroying the USA .Why would a conservative not want to stop the
flood of socialist voters into the USA? Because he is not a conservative but owned by
Amnesty PaCs and billionaire donors
6.The only thing Cruz has done is given teddy bears and soccer ball to that invasion of illegal children:
7.Cruz has never said anything against China and Mexico as Trump has. Cruz owned by
China and Mexico. Only Trump understands what China is doing to the USA
8. Cruz caught in many lies as when lying about Carson and stealing iowa
The way that politicians can affect the country is by passing laws . Cruz has not even
attempted to pass any laws which decrease government, stop illegals, stop China’s unfair
trade practices nothing only 2 worst laws ever TPA TPP and the corker bill.
10. A real conservative would not even consider voting for this TPA which gives
Obama dictatorial powers and subverts the Constitutin but Cruz did and and
even wrote an article saying the most outrageous lies trying to fool people into
supporting TPA. TPP is a trojan horse for immigration and allows for 100’s of millions
of 3rd world immigrants into the USA

http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/immigration/item/20710-obama-gop-trade-scheme-includes-unrestricted-immigration
11. this Cruz is a charlatan ,a sleazy sneaky do anything say anything lying weasel. Cruzers
have been brainwashed by false prophet just like Muslims by Muhammad.
12. Lindsay Graham now endorsed Cruz . that alone also proves Cruz is a fraud not conservative but owned by the same globalist internationalist donors as Graham, the GOP and Cruz are owned by.
13.Look at who the media ,GOPE, democrat party, uni-party, globalist donors ,Washington establishment including Cruz is targeting for destruction Trump our William Wallace of Braveheart only 10 billion times better. The KKK smear is only the latest lie that they all Cruz, the media, CNN,Rubio used exactly the same lines against Trump. the establishment is against us WE the people so that’s why they are against Trump because Trump is for us Americans and for our freedom.

Awesome points you make there.
Cruz bots are brainwashed by false prophet Cruz like Muslims are by false prophet Muhamamad.
either that or they are paid campaign bots.
Try again.
In 4 years as Senator your false prophet Cruz has done nothing good as in passing good laws only the worst 2 laws EVER for America TPA TPP and the Corker bill.
In 4 years as Senator Cruz has tried to pass no good laws that help America but only the worst laws ever TPA TPP(Trojan horse for Obama immigration agenda) and the corker bill .

Maybe they will change the nomination process so that they can fully predetermine the winning candidate.
Then we will only have one party.
THAT is Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Yeshua was what the
Jewish people called him. Ha Maschiach means “The Messiah”
in Hebrew. (My spelling is getting worse all the time.)
