That story was when 27 generals retired and as part of their retirement they were forced to sign a document stating that they could not publicly criticize Klinton under threat of penalty. This incident never got reported by the MSM.
OK, you mind explaining how this works?
Any assignment for a 3 or 4 star flag officer has to be approved by Congress, so not getting approved for a billet by Congress, or not accepting that billet once it is approved, means that they're automatically retired as soon as their present assignment ends.
So how could Clinton enforce this? You can't have a 3 or 4 star flag officer sitting around doing nothing (the number of 3 or 4 star officers on active duty is controlled by Congress), and you can't enforce a prior restraint of this sort.
Also, please note that this would be an example of prior restraint on free speech, and would be overturned in about a nanosecond by any federal judge.
It never got reported because it's not true. I'm retired military and trust me no general would ever be forced to sign anything of the sort. His fellow generals wouldn't stand for it and neither would the DoD or active military members. All they'd have to do would be to run to the GOP who were salivating to get anything on Clinton that would stick. That would've been bigger than Whitewater and Monica combined and definitely impeachable. On it's face it's a ridiculous charge. What's stopping the generals from coming forward now? Bush has been in office for damn near 6 years what are they waiting for? Fruit bat accusations like this only serve to tarnish the reputation of conservatives. Please don't spread this junk here.
