Obama Accused of Military 'Purge'

The United States military is being "purged" of officers suspected of disloyalty to or disagreement with the Obama administration, several sources charge.

"We recognize President Obama is the commander-in-chief and that throughout history presidents from Lincoln to Truman have seen fit to remove military commanders they view as inadequate or insubordinate," Investor's Business Daily (IBD) observed.

"Yet what has happened to our officer corps since President Obama took office is viewed in many quarters as unprecedented, baffling, and even harmful to our national security posture."

Retired U.S. Army Maj. Gen. Paul Vallely believes Obama is "intentionally weakening and gutting our military and reducing us as a superpower, and anyone in the ranks who disagrees or speaks out is being purged."

According to Breitbart.com, at least 197 officers, mostly at the rank of colonel or above, have been relieved of duty for a variety of reasons, or for no stated reason at all.

Nine senior commanding generals have been fired by the administration this year, "leading to speculation by active and retired members of the military that a purge of its commanders is underway," IBD reported.

We have to elect state governments that can survive the economic tactics of the federal government while making it clear they will have to use force to impose their tyranny on the state\s. I think people need to start accepting we aren’t going to save the entire union, and start salvaging what we can. The federal government can’t be fixed so what’s the point of holding onto a tyrannical government?

He won’t have to lie, spin or ignore. No one will even bother to ask him about it.

Other than IBD or Newsmax, can anyone show a source where it has been talked about anywhere else? I don’t even think Rush has mentioned it.

Not one of the conservative rock stars - Rush, Hannity, Coulter, Levin, and even West - will talk about the eligibility of the Halfrican Marxist.

Now, class, why is that? Anyone?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Well....This member of the class ( me) is completely befuddled. Why?

1) If they have been threatened, it would be very hard to keep a conspiracy that large held together so incredibly tightly for so many years.

2) Are **all** of them that shallow in the fundamental beliefs that they claim to hold so dearly?

How soon do we see people like Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, glen Beck and Ted Cruz start having bad things happen to them?

Sooner than we begin to see bad things happening to folks like Pelosi, Grayson, Wasserman-Schultz, Reid, Sharpton, et al.

No, they will fail, and I speak with confidence....”

As a student of History and lived long enough to witness the “slow” change in this country, I can say it will fail.

If you are right, then it will be by blood. I do not think people are willing, or conscience of that.

Although we slide peacefully into the mire. If human nature (history) are any indication, then the other side will not go without a fight. and it looks like they are preparing for one. I doubt we (the people) will give them one.

My opinion, I hope I am wrong.

the nature of the Beast (evil men) will not give up the gains.

If conservatives show strong this election and threaten the status quo, then there will be a “shut down”

even so, the slide to the mire can only be slowed, not stopped.

More like “people with already seared consciences”.

People who will order and obey orders to exterminate domestic political opposition.

Perhaps the riffed officers would honor their nation by leading it into revolution. Rid the nation and the world of Obama and all his evil sycophants.
