| The Castration of the Joint Chiefs of Staff |

| [US Defense Watch] Will the Joint Chiefs ever make a stand against the Obama Administration? Will the Joint Chiefs ever stand up against the insane social engineering policies which are eviscerating the military like a late night Ginsu chef? Last September, General Martin Dempsey retired as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and escaped in a rowboat down the Potomac as the Pentagon began to sink into the cold depths of the wide, grey river. Dempsey’s reign of cowardice and political correctness was a genuine disaster for the US military. Under Dempsey and his sidekick, Army Chief of Staff, General Ray Odierno, Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell was repealed, transgenders were authorized to serve in the military and we departed Iraq leaving a power vacuum and the keys to a Pandora’s Box. Under Dempsey, crippling rules of engagement in Afghanistan continued, which make our soldiers and Marines pop up targets of opportunity. Under Dempsey, military personnel were subjected to hours and hours of sensitivity training, doing physical training wearing pregnancy simulators, lactation and breastfeeding memos distributed to combat commands, a war in the ranks against Christianity, a purge of hundreds of general officers and admirals and my personal favorite...the ordering of US Army ROTC male cadets to parade around college campuses in red high heels, in order to feel sympathy for rape victims. Under Dempsey, the US began Operation Inherent Resolve, the Five O’Clock Charlie air campaign against ISIS that is the laughing stock of the Middle East. Under Dempsey, the graduation of three women at Ranger School took place, including a 37 year old woman, in what is still a giant cover up. So much obfuscation and Kool Aid drinking is taking place at Benning, it should be renamed Fort Cognitive Dissonance. |

| #6 I dunno. I suspect that even at her worst, she would stick to her salami tactics and not go for the grand "The constitution is null and void". If she did, then the JCS frogs would jump and it is on. With the salami tactics that she and her fellow Bolsheviks prefer, I expect you would wind up with a bowl of JCS frog soup who would only realize how co-opted they are when the order to put down a rebellion or insurrection. The only question at that point would be what if any rebellion in the provinces would take place, and how Capital District would choose to suppress it. And then of course, there are always the unforseen "Events, my dear boy. Events!" that would force hands and actions. |

| #5 Hillary would continue Obama's dismal record on the military. She and Slick Willie hate the military as much as Obama. |

| #4 "10 more months. 10 more months" There's no way to really know that, given that The Beast will be as bad or worse. (And I ain't holding my breath waiting for an indictment.) I've often wondered, given the oath to the constitution that they all take, what the Brass would do if the civilian leadership gave up all pretense and declared the constitution void. Just ignore it and go along? |

| #3 As annoying as it is right now, Abject servility of the military to the civilian "leadership" is a good thing. Countries that have military coups generally do not do well. Even a best case scenario like Chile was barely a break even proposition, and was highly situational. Right now, the O-bots have absolutely no credible excuse for their failures, and at this point the doves in uniform are not about to give the O-bots one. Like the rest of us, they are quietly repeating "10 more months. 10 more months" |
