Right. If a member of the military wants to go online and call Osama a punk assed bitch, then that should be OK.
Now if he posts online that everybody should vote for Voldemort and kickout the punk assed bitch currently in office, well, that’s probably not allowed.
It should be OK, but it's not. It's considered disrespect to the Chain of Command to criticize the president, whether he deserves it or not. I know this firsthand, having served during Klinton's first term. I was warned a time or three to keep my big mouth shut.
