What a waste of money and time this disgusting trial was. And what damage to military morale will such witch hunts cause?

It would be good to have a list of names for each and every asshat involved in prosecuting all of the Seals.

Maybe I missed something. What was Obama’s connection to this?

I think that he could have been much more emphatic about his innocence. He did not have the air of someone who was incorrectly charged. That is not good... Might just have been his inexperience on live TV...

No retrial. The "pretty boy" general who was the convening authority in these cases now has his sorry @$$ covered...he did his "duty." And know that many of the military trial lawyers (JAG Corps) are as bad as their civilian cousins -- they may wear the uniform, but they don't support the troops. A sad example is Sen. Graham-nesty. That RINO poofter is a USAF Reserve JAG officer.

As commander-in-chief, he could have overridden the sorry-@$$ general who was the convening authority and stopped the whole circus at the beginning.

“What was Obama’s connection to this?”

The SEAL(s) supposedly popped a Muzzie in the mouth and gave him a bloody lip. Obama is a Muzzie and having an infidel American allegedly pop a Muzzie like that is a huge insult to Allah. Obama is also a Leftist and Leftists love to defend Muzzies against the infidel. You also have a legal establishment in the military filled with Leftists. Obama is also the C-In-C.

What about the Haditha Marines were acquitted of massacring thoes 24 Iraqi civilians?

No connection there either, right?
