those that stood in applause for the obozo should never be allowed to serve, they've disgraced the uniform and their brethren

What now makes the US exceptional is the size of its debt and the size of its deprivation. Our President has admitted arming terrorists in Syria. He says he is sorry and was surprised to learn they were terrorists. He also used terrorist ground forces on the ground in Libya, which explains why our Ambassador was assassinated and why we are currently pulling US citizens out of Libya. The President used the Muslim Brotherhood terrorist organization in Egypt, however has refused to admit they are terrorist. Egypt differs with this opinion as they have outlawed the brotherhood, are trying them and killing them for terrorism.

Dear Emperor Zero,

Arming terrorist is a tool used by rogue nations and terrorist states.

Why not less than .025%?

I passed through the room when dumBO was telling the Cadets that global warming was going to affect the way they were going to carry out Boy Scout missions. I am surprised he did not rename USMA to The Boy Scout Academy at Fag Point, to make it politically correct.

I pray the Commencement Ceremony in three years sets the record straight.

While I get him, Beckley is the poster child for nasty, constipated, myopic, sour-tempered liberalism...no sense of humor or perspective AT ALL!

We swore to uphold and defend the Constitution so how does a serving member react “respectfully” to someone who is ACTIVELY shredding, ignoring and usurping said document...?
And this is NOT hyperbole...he has actually, in public, denied the legitimacy of the tenets of the Constitution. This is treasonous....
So does the military turn a blind eye to this?

You want the cadets to stage a coup?

After our nation elected this guy, or allowed it?

The same voting public that ushers in Boehner, Reid, Cantor, Cornyn, Paul, Rube o, and gives us Romney?

Don’t be silly.

The cadets work for us.

Do people not know about the military?

Upon signing up, free speech is taken away. The military is NOT a democracy.

Stop

So said those responsible for Nazi concentration camps...how’d that work for them at Nuremberg?
I am NOT advocating a coup or even overt defiance...but being able to express your disagreement, respectfully, or council otherwise is a soldier’s right. When you sign up, you do not throw your own Constitutional rights away.
Also, tell it to the LGBT soldiers in the next gay parade.
And last time I looked, we are NOT a democracy but a Representative Republic.
And telling me to “stop” is not FR polite and patently futile, my FRiend.

Obama receives standing ovation from less than 25% of West Point cadets: report
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Because 75% of the cadets have read history written by Sir Winston Churchill. They know exactly who Obama is and what he represents.

Actually that sounds pretty good. It means that 75% are not in with ZerØ’s agenda.

There may be some hope for the Republic.

“...being able to express your disagreement, respectfully, or council otherwise is a soldier’s right.”

I don’t want to get into a big debate, and I don’t want to hear any insults, so, when I ask you to cite this in the UCMJ, just give that a shot.

Just for the sake of others reading, I must say, no. This is quite incorrect.

So. Let’s stop dumping on these cadets.
