Just think, we could have pictures of the great female generals with big ole Ranger tabs soon!



It's funny that they hate Lee so much. For all the thr people involved in the war, he was one of those respected on both sides, and who repeatedly vocalized the best case for fighting on the side of secession. Those kinds of ideas are a lot scarier to lefties than human slavery.

This is about Marxists attacking history and white patriarchy, it must be torn down to move “forward”

Saw that the Regimental adjutant recently was awarded her tab. Interesting times.

Mc Chrystal should have been court martialed over the Pat Tillman incident and run out of the service. As far as honor goes, he's not worth the dirt off of Robert E. Lee's boots.

We won't be naming any schools for him around here.

Trump is picking the exact right fight. The thing propping up the SJW in America IS the judiciary branch. Without it and its' unconstitutional assumption of near dictatorial powers they could not advance their agenda. You would not have trannies in the military. You would not have SJW's getting Ranger tabs or the military becoming a social experiment.

Pretty much this. Unfortunately everyone around and above Stanley was just as rotten as he was.

I accidentally typed "Tillman"; edited it

Obama’s military, what would one expect from a Kenyan communist interloper

Yeah, no love lost between me and Obamy, but these guys rose up through the Bush military for 8 years too. 2004, Bush was president for 4 years and had 4 remaining years AFTER this incident was discovered.

Obama certainly didn't help, but let's not pretend like military leadership was great before Obama. Actually, Bush and Obama were not wildly different from one another. They agreed on many, many things, and I'm sure Bush would have had no major qualms with the general selected for leadership or commands under Obama.

But anyhoo, the primary problem with the leadership in the US military is the size and scope of the current DOD mission. Until that changes, we will not clean house.

Erasing history? Really? The South and Robert E. Lee are being expunged from history books?

You're F.O.S.

What's happening is that glorification of their traitorous and anti-human activities are being gradually corrected.... thank god.

This is more of the "I like my heroes uncaptured" sort of feces. In one breath you feel the need to slander American heroes and then in the next whine about history being erased. You people have little brains and zero shame.

If being a general makes one a hero, then I’ll gladly slander them all day long. The vast majority of our generals are self righteous pussies.

Too many asshats running things. I read a book recently that showed just what such an asshat can do, it was back during Korea and the asshat in charge of X Corps, Ned Almond.

He nearly got the entire Corps wiped out at Chosin Reservoir by brownnosing the asshats in Tokyo that were brownnosing Douglas Mac Arthur, who was fighting with Harry Truman.

Almond could have listened to his veteran Marines on the ground and not let his people get so strung out and exposed, they knew the Chinese were there but Tokyo refused to admit it.

But Almond smelled glory so he risked all those men for a medal. He should have been shot. He was a paperpusher not a general.

you get to re read the explanation.
Try this time.

The questions you pose are not what the general was discussing.

Just rereading this thread and saw you were everywhere in it and appear to be a liberal. I ask you this:

tell me how Robert E Lee is holding them back from succeeding. Please tell me. I need to know. If it’s convincing, I may get behind “your movement”.

What difference does that make, anyway?

Benedict Arnold doesn't hold me back from succeeding, but I don't want him glorified with conspicuous public monuments, do you?
