So your solution is not to have generals and admirals? If the citizenry repeatedly elects an idiot, how is that their fault? Not being overly critical, just trying to follow the logic.

By the time a person reaches Flag rank, admiral or general, they have enough years in to retire, and their retirement would be comfortable.

That means that they have the option to retire from the military at any time and speak out on any problems they see.

None of them did that.

Keanu said they all knew the fighting was for nothing.

They had the opportunity to retire and speak out about this senseless misery, and they chose not to.

That makes them cowards.

Moral cowards, but cowards just the same.

I know all about the argument that they have to stay and fight for their Service.

That’s a bullshit excuse.

They stood by and let the misery continue.

And it is misery.

Kids with no Dad. Brothers gone. Bodies broken. Constant hatred with no end in sight.

With no end required.

And our generals and admirals let us all down because they were afraid.

I took my Dress Blues and my old Class A uniforms and threw them into the street after Comey refused to prosecute Hillary Clinton for espionage.

I would throw them into the street today if I still had them.

That is how much this sickens me.
