It has been noted that 0bama is creating a martial-law-ready military. In other words, he is creating a military that will protect him.
Comrade Obama and the Politburo, both conveniently located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, are in the midst of overhauling the nation's military. Radically so, as befits the nation's most radical president. Downsizing the armed forces is the cover, in part.
The people's savior is giving the heave-ho to military brass who can't quite get with the program, which might be described as inflicting a smothering political correctness on the nation's armed forces. Political correctness is actually too charitable. What Comrade Obama is committing is ideological warfare on the traditions and virtues that are at the core of the armed forces -- and, in fact, the nation's core. Part and parcel of this war against the traditional military is the mainstream media-neglected war on faith -- Judeo-Christian faith, that is -- among our men and women in uniform.
Reported The Blaze in late October:
Zitat"Obama will not purge a civilian or political appointee because they have bought into Obama's ideology," [Retired Army General Paul] Vallely said. "The White House protects their own. That's why they stalled on the investigation into fast and furious, Benghazi and Obamacare. He's [Mr. Obama] intentionally weakening and gutting our military, Pentagon and reducing us as a superpower, and anyone in the ranks who disagrees or speaks out is being purged."
And one more morsel from The Blaze's story:
ZitatA Pentagon official who asked to remain nameless because they were not authorized to speak on the matter said even "young officers, down through the ranks have been told not to talk about Obama or the politics of the White House. They are purging everyone and if you want to keep your job -- just keep your mouth shut.
Nothing to see here, you say? The subversion of the military has been underway at least since our most degenerate president, William Jefferson Clinton, held sway. Bill forced upon the military the same credo he either imposed on, or agreed to with, his winsome bride, Hillary (one tends to think it was a devil's pact).
"Don't ask, don't tell, sugar," Bill doubtlessly cooed to Hill when it came to his many dalliances, before, during, and, one supposes, after his two terms in the White House. Nor would Bill speak of hers.
As is Comrade Obama's wont, he's upping the ante, putting the pedal to the metal in left-wingizing American institutions (see the prez's latest on the courts), thus ensuring himself an "historic" presidency. Give the president his due: accelerating liberty's ruin is quite historic, if not outright epic.

I'm going to look at a possible side effect of Obama purging our military into his mold that might be a positive development.
He's apparently ridding himself of those who would not be loyal to his decrees. But in the process he's allowing those who have greater military skills than his rump kissers he's replacing them with, to be out there fired and disgruntled believing they may have a score to settle. And men with a score to settle, who carry a grudge, all at the same time believing they and their families and their way of life are being threatened might be a good thing for those of us who share their feelings.
What would happen if the crap continues to hit the fan and we the people decide we've had enough and really do start revolting, guns and all, and we unite under these fired, disgruntled, and angry former military officers?
Personally I would take my chances serving under the fired guys with their military skills versus the weak kneed sycophants left serving Obama whose limp wristed grenade tossing skills look like Obama throwing a baseball.
