Lt. Michael Behenna was arrested and charged with his alleged crimes while George W, Bush was president.

While I agree that Obama is continuing the undermining of our military, he is not responsible for implementing the rules of engagement under which our soldiers have had to serve in Iraq and Afghanistan.

In fact, these 'rules', and the deleterious effect they have on our country's ability to competently prosecute a war, did not suddenly spring forth in fully developed form for use in the current conflicts. They are the culmination of decades of 'progressive' 'thought' being applied to warfare in an attempt to make it 'civilized'.
