Prior to Germany's invasion of France there was serious misgivings in Germany's high command regarding the 'Austrian Corporal's pending plans. Serious enough that a coup was being discussed at the highest of levels (albeit a small circle). But the coup was ultimately nixed by Commander-in-Chief of Home Forces General Friedrich Fromm for, among other reasons, an inability to assure the participation by the infantry, whom he feared would remain loyal to Hitler.

I think here we would have the opposite case, the Generals might give the command, but would they be carried out by the men pulling the triggers?

I would be shocked if 0bama had 20% support amongst the troops.

I was at the bagel shop on base this morning. Standing next to me while I waited on my bagel was a Tech Sergeant. He smiled at me and said, “Well, we have a new president.” I smiled back and replied, “Yes we do, but it is the same one.” Then I said, “I look at it this way, our national nightmare is one-half over.” He frowned and would not speak to me again.
