“soldiers had a duty to stay above the political fray”

Seems Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower disagrees with your understanding of the First Amendment, sir!

And William Henry Harrison, Ulysses S. Grant, George H.W. Bush, Teddy Roosevelt, Zachary Taylor, Andrew Jackson, Rutherford B. Hayes, James Garfield... Only 12 presidents in our history never served in the military prior to entering politics. Interestingly, that number includes Woodrow Wilson, FDR, Clinton and Obama - 4 of the presidents that have moved us toward socialism the most during their presidencies...

Even the dumbocrats never fielded guys without military experience until Slick Willy. I can hardly imagine what these former soldiers/sailors/airmen would have to say about this asinine statement.

Colonel Harry Truman, USAR
Col Theodore Roosevelt, USA
