I hope the active duty military joins in this protest. We have retired Generals for the first time calling for the ouster of their boss. Remember they can be reactivated at any time so we now have military people actively campaigning for the head of the civilian elected leadership. This is a whole new chapter in American history and will be great fun to watch. If we want a preview of how this works we can look to such examples of wonder such Saddam's Iraq, Pinochet's Chile, Pakistan or any other run-of-the-mill banana republic.

While you may think a politically active military is a cool thing because it right now agrees with your politics, it's f-ing insane, I don't know how else to put it.

The founding fathers were very clear, the military was apolitical and worked for the civilian elected leadership, period. These folks on both sides of this issue need to STFU and I mean NOW!
