8. And the women shall lead them

Hopefully this starts a trend. I served 30 years in the Navy and the reality is that we are pretty damned diverse, BUT the right wingers are way more vocal and propped up by shit like Limbaugh being on armed forces radio. That's a fucking travesty that must end!!!

Democrats need to start playing hardball. EVERY FUCKING Commander that was in charge of troops and allowed that orange POS to come and make fucking partisan campaign speeches to hostage troops ought to be fucking drummed out of the service. EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM.

I'm calling the pricks in charge of Iraq troops in front of a congressional committee and making sure they understand that we don't have a partison military.

I'm making sure they are put under oath and explain how they have a responsibility to ensure my son in Afghanistan is not used as a fucking political prop for Donnie Short Fingers... and I'd use that exact language.

Please tell your relatives and friends that are on active duty to NOT remain silent when partisan wingnut shit is broadcast at their commands or by their peers.

This myth of the Retrumplicans being the friend of the military needs to die a public and painful death
