Our Generals are clowns and whore themselves out. Mattis is on the Board of the scam company Theranos. Because you know, being a Marine means you have a lot of insight into the medical laboratory business. And Allen, got a nice job at the Brooking institute...pushing leftist policy. Powell, well he went to the board of venture capital firms and is now on the board of Salesforce.com. Petraeus is on a half dozen boards of directors, and as a professor at all kinds of leftwing universities. And he finds time to push gun control with Mark Kelly.
On the other hand, our last good General Norman Schwarzkopf. He turned down all efforts to get him into politics and remained independent.
He supported several children’s charities and national philanthropic causes, and he was a spokesperson for prostate cancer awareness, recovery of the grizzly bear from endangered species status, and after a lifetime love of hiking, served on the Nature Conservancy board of governors. Schwarzkopf otherwise sought to live out a low-profile retirement in Tampa, though he briefly served as a military.
Now they are all pussies...skinny little distance runner MBA pussies.
Very well said.
It seems that every single retired General Officer these days is on a board of directors for some company.
This whole "board of directors" thing is yet another scam I've noticed over the years.
All these establishment types are all members of some board of directors of one kind of another.
It's yet another pay to play scam.
Dumb ass believes the polls. Dead meat, militarily and especially politically.
sadly, too many are in it because they couldn't get the money or pension doing anything else...
Tommy Franks is out in Western Oklahoma with a lot of local involvement. He does serve on the University of Texas at Arlington’s board and the board of a couple of other worthy endeavors, but a class guy.
