yes but you’re failing to see the difference between decision making of saying
"yes ok get it done " which the president would do . but once he gives that green light he has no real input in the planning and execution . apart from maybe the plan be presented and him saying yes or no , but in terms of the military side he has no input , he simply is not qualified to have a real input .
yes he can fire generals but generally he doesnt apart from a chief of staff .
for example i was a captain at the time i left which is still classed as a junior officer . on many occasions i would gladly argue with officers much higher above me . and i disagreed alot with how things are done in todays warfare . but my views wouldnt of even reach the minster of defence let alone the prime minster and the same for the US officers so this idea of the president sacking anyone that disagrees is total bollocks because he knows very fucking little of the views outside of his meetings with the chief of staffs and even they know very fucking little of the views of their men .

Sure if there was an organized guerrilla force i would join that if the government went tyrannical. But if if soldiers busted down my door and demanded my guns there would be jack shit i could do about it I’m not suicidal.

so ill put it to you as i did before your guns are useless in the grand scheme of things if you just hand them over anyway

I think they’re all pretty much corrupt i don’t think we’ve had an honest president since Kennedy and he got shot for it. I’m not really impressed with any of the candidates ive seen so far. There are some i wouldn’t mind getting in but i doubt they are going to get in. America is becoming too liberal so its looking more and more like that psycho bitch Hillary Clinton is going to get in. We need a president with balls in office. Most U.S presidents back in the day had been bad asses. Washington when he was president personally rode at the front of the army to crush the Whiskey rebellion. James Madison fought against the British during 1812. I could go on all day. Now we have Obama who was the former mayor of Illinois which is a shit hole and goes golfing at the first sign of trouble.
[/quote] the days of that our gone im afraid . their nothing but pen pushers .
which was my point about you losing a carrier . todays politician would do as i said and back down , wouldnt of happened back in the day but today it would . fuck me should see the shit storm every time a helicopter went down in Afghanistan and the money they just lost , so an aircraft carrier i think they would all drop dead of heart attacks .

Also remember 90% of the time we go into a country you go with us.
