I just figured it was because Trump is running against the Endless War Uniparty. BushBots and Clinton Drones all.

Allen is a disgrace to the uniform and many Marines despise him for this.

[Robert A Cook PE]

Funny. Hillary’s ABCNNBCBS press corpse didn’t report this. 8<)

They’re all a bunch of whores who would sell this country out in a New York minute (and for a few bucks too)

The good General is a Democrat. It’s not complicated. Retired general officers pick a political party and bat for that team.

He tried to out yell Hillary i think it was a tie

[Captain Jack Aubrey]

Well, I was not in the military. But almost everyone I have met in the last 30 yeasr from the officer corps was a complete liberal.

I must be thick because I read the whole thing and I don’t understand how bringing Allen out of retirement plays into PetraeusBroadwell or Benghazi. What is the “leverage” the author is talking about?

[Nifster]

Just disgusting

[Falconspeed]

‘Broadwell knew the Benghazi Annex was a CIA “rendition site.’

Interesting. I remember reading Free Republic when Allen retired and the comments are, as usual, frank and accurate. Allen quickly left to avoid shame. Now he is being used to support a bad candidate. Sad. He needs to be responsible and take a photo with both Patraeus and Trump immediately.

Occam’s Razor: 2012’s General Allen’s quiet disappearance, is 2014’s political leverage to use General Allen as the tool needed to present the image of Obama’s fight against ISIS.

This analysis misses a piece
Allen was cleared of misconduct in early 2013.
He was already a 4-star with 37 years of service and just short of 60 years old at retirement.
So he was near the end of his career anyway, so they couldn't wreck that.
Where's the leverage ?

Knew John Allen as a 2LT. Didn’t like him then as he seemed to not have much of a “moral compass.” Did not work with him after TBS. He is a smart guy and I know some who liked him, but he apparently has gone completely to the dark side.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Probably because he’s a chickensh*t PX hero.
