The disturbing pattern: Obama rids
America´s military of yet another
top general

Investor´s Business Daily, by Andrew Malcolm

Original Article

Posted By:SurferLad, 2/20/2013 9:19:35 AM

It´s a developing pattern of this Obama White House. Barack Obama cashiered yet another battle-seasoned American general Tuesday, even as the war in Afghanistan continues along with numerous other serious global threats to United States security. This is the fourth senior officer Obama has forced from the country´s service. All four were tied somehow to the Afghanistan mess that Obama has long argued was the most important war. Each departure was staged as a resignation.

This is eerily similar to what Morsi of the Muslim bro did in Egypt.

Replacements are being asked if they would fire on American citizens - given the right circumstances of course.

Must concur with #4 and #5. Regarding #6, the rumor has been running around the internet, but I´d need to see something substantial to buy in to that one. I don´t think any military man would fire on his own countrymen.

The competent leader uses people smarter, stronger, or better at something then they.

A weak, incompetent leader fears them and sees them as threats.

It´s called purging. He is stacking the deck with his loyalists. The Soviets did it all the time.

Right on #6! Have come across several articles about purging the military of those who refuse to fire on American citizens. Obama is looking to convert those willing to take aim at us into his dream civilian force.

#7, suggest you read up on the Bonus Marchers, right here in the US, last century. Even the watered-down versions written by libtards on the inet.

Let´s face it - Obama is one of the first presidents we have ever had who is worried about a military coup. And rightfully so, at least until he can purge the military of those still loyal to the constitution and replace them with those only loyal to him.

RE #7: Having spent 20 years in the military, I can believe that there ar officers that would order their men to fire on fellow Americns, and enlisted men that would obey those orders. Look at Kent State, or the bonus marchers back in the 1930s. The military oversaw the reloction of Japanese-Americans at the start of WWII. I also believe our Dear Leader wants a high command that will be compliant to his orders.

Why aren´t any of them going public? They took an oath to defend against all enemies, foreign and domestic. America has never had a more dangerous domestic enemy.

Brennan ran a separate security agency within the WH. If they were spying on Petraeus as head of the CIA, you have to be naive to think that they haddn´t used the best Google supplied intelligence gathering on each and every top military officer. Every email. every message, every site visited; nothing is secret unless a device completely out of the NSA knowledge loop was being used. You can be 100% sure someone is combing every email on the Pentagon system for key words and phrases.

You get the choice to work wth the thugs or get out.

Sooner or later this will turn and bite him. And yes there are Officers and Enlisted that will fire on us. Just remember when they do that they make themselves viable targets in return.
If you want to keep your Republic your gonna have to fight for it, because your enemies are coming to take it.

Obama is the most dangerous thing that this country faces right now. He is trying to put his cronies in place so that they will follow his orders to the "T". We are in trouble. the government isn´t buying up all of the ammo because they need it. They don´t want us to have any.

"This is eerily similar to what Morsi of the Muslim bro did in Egypt."

I´d say it´s exactly the same as what Morsi did, and for exactly the same reasons.

#2 and #19, it is also similar what the new islamist government of Turkey is doing to thier military, which, according to the Turkish constitution, is charged with keeping Turkey a secular state. One twist the Turk islamonazis have added is arresting the officers on trumped up charges after they resign.

Obama is expert at digging up moral dirt on his enemies. That is how he won a seat in the Illinois legislature and how he got his U.S. Senate seat.

The folks that are retiring will be the leaders called upon when the call to arms comes. we will have a civil war upon us in the near furture. The idiot in charge wants only those who will follow his orders. When the s**T hits the fan the which side will you be on, is all that really matters.

Hi, I’m Senator Jim Inhofe. Let me begin by telling those who lost loved ones during the tragic tornadoes in our state how much we love you guys. My family and I continue to pray for you. We pray for you every day.

Oklahoma has been hit hard, but we’re not knocked out.

Hi, everybody. This week, I’ve been speaking about America’s national security — our past, our present, and our future. On Thursday, I outlined the future of our fight against terrorism — the threats we face, and the way in which we will meet them. On Friday, I went to Annapolis to celebrate the extraordinary young men and women of the United States Naval Academy’s Class of 2013 — the sailors and Marines who will not only lead that fight, but who will lead our country for decades to come. And on Monday, we celebrate Memorial Day.

Nice try by President Obama to change the national subject of intense public discussion from his serial scandals to his "fight" against terrorism. In an hour-long speech, interrupted by a persistent heckler, the former Real Good Talker reminded his audience, whose mission is to study war, that the United States has "constitutional principles." And that "having fought for our independence, we know a price must be paid for freedom." Strange words indeed coming from an alleged constitutional law lecturer and president whose Internal Revenue Service has been illegally targeting and intimidating Americans of a certain contrary political persuasion.

Barack Obama´s long history

The standard rule for handling bad news in politics is to get it all out at once. Take your hits for a news cycle, two or three. And then try to move on. The worst thing to do is allow the bad news to dribble out, poison drop by poison drop, for days, weeks, even months. Yet that is precisely what Barack Obama has done -- and continues to do in his current epidemic of embarrassments -- over a decade of controversies and scandals. The amazing thing is, so far, it´s worked like a charm. So, why should he change?

Graduation ceremonies are good times for families and their offspring, which makes them good times for politicians to be around and associate themselves with happiness. President Obama gives four commencement speeches per year--at one public and one private university, one historically black school and one service academy. Just before his epidemic of scandals broke, Obama critiqued the many faults of America and told Ohio State graduates to dismiss cynical talk about over-reaching government and fear of tyranny. Technically, first ladies are not politicians. Most are dutiful if often reluctant campaigners. But Michelle Obama is a glaring exception.

Finally, scientific confirmation of what so many have suspected all along: The strongest of men in varied societies around the world are much more likely to hold conservative political views. Probably much smarter too. While weaker guys, regardless of wealth, are more liberal, into handouts and wealth redistribution because, well, they don´t have the strength to get it and keep it themselves. The reassuring results come from a new study by researchers at Denmark´s Aarhus University.

Washington rumor has it that Obama wants to be U.N. Secretary General. There are several reasons that make that likely, and if it´s true, it throws new light on a lot of Obama´s oddities -- including his Royalty Bows, his Apology Tours, his Muslim Sellout, and the Benghazi Cover-Up. But first -- why would Obama be planning to become the chief of the U.N. before he has even finished his second term?

On Wednesday, Drummer Lee Rigby of the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers, a man who had served Queen and country honorably in the hell of Helmand Province in Afghanistan, emerged from his barracks on Wellington Street, named after the Duke thereof, in southeast London. Minutes later, he was hacked to death in broad daylight and in full view of onlookers by two men with machetes who crowed "Allahu Akbar!" as they dumped his carcass in the middle of the street like so much roadkill. As grotesque as this act of savagery was, the aftermath was even more unsettling

We exist to be managed, to be shuttled to the polling place, to vote for their candidates. The Karl Roves of the world, and all the rest of them. They fight us in the primaries, they fight us at the grassroots.

WASHINGTON —In a dramatic departure from existing White House procedures, President Obama requested today that his staff start cc’ing him on stuff. “Look, I know a lot of you think I’m really busy and you don’t want to bother me,” the President reportedly told his staff in an Oval Office meeting. “But cc me anyway. It’s good for me to keep up on what’s going on around here.” “It’s not good when I turn on the news and they’re talking about something at the White House and I’m like, whoa, when did that happen?”

The Boy Scouts of America (BSA) have reversed their longstanding membership guidelines to allow homosexuals to join the organization.

Abuse Of Power: Any scandal investigation that expects a "Eureka!" moment, a White House e-mail, or Oval Office smoking gun will be misguided. In fact, the dots are already connected directly to the president. Barack Obama is not foolish enough to have a tape recording system hidden in his desk. And his administration staff are not careless enough to send one another incriminating e-mails. If the president was behind the IRS unlawfully harassing conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status, we can be sure the communications were all sotto voce and in persona, like any good Chicago political operator.

A Washington state Democrat is accusing Republicans of “throwing American infrastructure … under the bus” after a bridge collapse there this week. The portion of Interstate 5 in Washington that runs over the Skagit River collapsed on Thursday after a truck hit an overhead support structure, but Rep. Jim McDermott (D-Wash.) cited the incident in an interview as proof Republicans were blocking infrastructure investment to hurt President Obama politically. “Well, they have clearly spent the whole last five years trying to tear the president down, but they have done it by throwing the American infrastructure and
