Ever notice how no cabinet members in the Obama Administration are ever fired but in the last year nine senior generals have been fired? Read why: http://allenbwest.com/?p=1143

A few probably deserved to be fired, but mostly it is because the Obama maladministration hates the military.

Crazy is as crazy does:
This is a very, very, VERY lengthy essay on Obama. That said, if you REALLY want to understand what we’re dealing with, you REALLY need to read this one.

Any dictatorship must purge the military leadership.

You have to ask? Government takeover in progress. It is the frog boiling in the pot. If you put a bullfrog in a pan of water and let him settle down until he sits there, floating, you can incrementally turn up the temperature one degree per minute and the frog will sit there until it is cooked and dies.

We are all frogs sitting in the pot.

how many of them are white heterosexual christian married males in good health put into positions of power by their unearned white privilege?

what this country’s military really needs is more black athiest lesbian divorced female generals in poor health.

three main reasons.

1. will not be part of promoting faggotry.

2. will not fire on us civilians or execute other illegal orders.

3. will not persecute christian soldiers in their command.

Why are so many generals getting the axe?

They read the Constitution? Or know someone who read the Constitution? Or have heard of the Constitution? Or think normal Americans aren't the enemy?

Or, as the military is downsized, there just isn’t the need for flag officers. If there are fewer units to command, there is less need for commanders

It might be as simple as money. From the POV of the joint chiefs, the more we retire, the more money left for us.

Obama always blames somebody else but in this instance there is a clear place to point the finger....... the sequester that he developed. It might get resolved in the military’s favor come the budget talks. but that will be the future.

I never thought it would be so easy for our military to be overthrown.

Obama’s just a “little” Stalin. For now.

I think you're right. I also think the gov can get online and read blogs and message boards like anybody else. And what they see scares them, and they are preparing for it. They want to rule us like dictators, and much of the population is willing to start shooting over that. They can also take a measure of how much ammo has been procured by citizens in the last five years. And it's an enormous amount. The uprising will be of such proportion, that they will need the military to suppress.

What we are witnessing, from the article:

“Narcissists project a grandiose but false image of themselves.... They created a personality cult around themselves and with their blazing speeches elevated their admirers’ souls, filled their hearts with enthusiasm and instilled in their minds a new zest for life. They gave them hope! They promised them the moon, but alas, invariably they brought them to their doom. When you are a victim of a cult of personality, you don’t know it until it it too late.”
