Didnt he do himself in when he dissed the gold star family? No? I mean what does it take for this guy to be despised by the military? Suppose he dropped an A-bomb on Fort Dix? Or launched a cruise missile strike on Parris Island? Or had one of our nuclear subs torpedo an aircraft carrier, Which would have been the USS John F Kennedy if it hadnt been decommissioned. Or perhaps he would re-commission it so that he could blow it up. Wouldanything surprise you at this point?

I grew up in the military and eventually, at the end of my working years, became a civilian uniformed civil servant for several agencies. This is beyond the pale and I hope it causes the military to reject his authority. And that's no small thing but I think it is the only thing they can do under the oaths they took.
