Doesn't this say something about the boss and not the employees?

I'll go one further, I think there is at least a 50/50 chance he will end up with a 5th SECDEF before his term ends.
The job is tough enough under normal circumstances. When the President and his closest advisors are openly hostile towards and disdainful of the U.S. military, it becomes nearly impossible.

Ron Paul discussed that this week.

Damn. This President is a joke.

Shortly after Chuck Hagel’s ouster, the media reported that the president favored Michelle Flournoy to replace him. She would have been the first female defense secretary, but more tellingly she would come to the position from a think tank almost entirely funded by the military industrial complex,” Paul, 79, said in Monday’s message.
quote:
“So President Obama cannot keep defense secretaries on the job and his top Pentagon pick is not interested in serving the last stretch of a lame duck administration. There is bickering and fighting within the administration about who should be running the latest US wars in the Middle East and elsewhere,” said Paul.
Damn. This President is a joke.

They might as well appoint Ashton Kutcher. The Obama Administration's attitude towards the military, and their inept handling of foreign policy won't change.

Ashton Carter sounds more like a boy band name than a sec of def.
