Not necessarily.

They could decide to hang in their position as a way to curtail or quietly undermine bullshit orders from Kegsbreath. They might also not resign because they know whoever would get put in their positions would absolutely not care about the troops or committing to an endless war and using troops as disposable fodder. I mean, I’m sure they don’t care about an endless war that they think is justified. But they know, as we do, whatever this manufactured bullshit is, it is not at all justifiable.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.

Tell me more...
