Union Prez: GOP 'Fomenting Rebellion' In Military Against Obama
Publius' Forum ^ | 2/28/09 | Warner Todd Huston

Posted on 02/28/2009 6:12:38 AM PST by Mobile Vulgus

Ron Moore, AFL-CIO local president and Examiner writer, absurdly and irresponsibly claimed on February 25 that "the Republican Party" is trying to "foment rebellion" inside the U.S. military against President Obama. This is exactly the sort of irresponsible charges that the left loves to throw around to create fear and loathing, sadly.

Moore bases the untruths in his headlined, "Is the Republican Party fomenting rebellion among the armed forces as a political tactic?," on the fact that individuals that happen to be Republicans -- or once were -- are still pursuing the Obama birth certificate issue. But he takes that extra untenable step to say that these few people represent "the Republican Party."

Moore cites Alan Keyes' suggestion that American soldiers should refuse orders given by Barack Obama. Keyes claims Obama is not a proven natural born U.S. citizen because an official birth certificate has not been released and that he may not Constitutionally qualify to be president of the U.S. Moore further cites the fact that one solder has joined the fight to force Obama to reveal his real birth certificate as evidence that "the military" is taking Keyes up on the crusade.

After detailing the story, Moore ends his foolish piece with this...

Being Retired Military, I personally understand the professionalism and dedication of the overwhelming majority of our troops. I don't take such reporting seriously, i consider it disrespectful. This dribble coming from a Union puke doesn't surprise me one bit.

Union Prez: GOP 'Fomenting Rebellion' In Military Against Obama

Ron Moore, AFL-CIO local president and Examiner writer, absurdly and irresponsibly claimed on February 25 that "the Republican Party" is trying to "foment rebellion" inside the U.S. military against President Obama. ..... Moore cites Alan Keyes' suggestion that American soldiers should refuse orders given by Barack Obama.

Alan Keyes is now the Chairman of the Republican Party and speaks for the GOP?

Before the Spanish Civil War, political parties on both sides were actually "fomenting rebellion in the military". During those times, a union leader that said such a thing in the media would be found the next day, face down on a sidewalk, with a fatal case of acute lead poisoning.

We'll be experiencing more and more projection from the left.

More ridicule and sarcasm.

I don't think we have anything in our arsenal to combat that effectively, so I'm anticipating the emboldened thuggery to occur.

Our challenge will be determining if we will die for liberty and freedom or kill for it.

The court is packed, the congress, the polls ... I mean .... Caaahhhh mon! .. What do we have as an effective tool to reclaim out nation?

Actually, there are 3 now. Two who are active duty, and one retired general major. Hope there will be more.

I recall the words of a rather famous WWII general...

"No ******* ever won the war dying for his country..."

Well, if they do, I hope one of the first things they do is break the unions hard.

Just the idea that the left might be even a little worried about this is outstanding.

Are you better off now since the stimulus bill was passed? How about your children?

This is what Democrats do. They’ll hit you at every turn, in any way possible.

Obama has two problems with the military that are substantive, and not the fault of anyone’s “fomenting”. He wants to cut the military budget, and he opposed and demeaned the military’s efforts in Iraq. Would Mr. Moore care to address those, so we can talk about something germane?
