#1 King Obama. So the question remains, will the military brass protect the constitution or their careers? Seems like the boys may have to choose.

#2 Before we speculate too much we should see what the changes are. I assume there's a procedure for doing this and the White House is following SOP. If not, then there's a problem.

#3 While I don't put Bambi past fucking anything up, I am wanting to wait to see before I pass judgment. A lot of the terminology needed changing with the new deployments and tactics so it may just be a simple update.

However, knowing what Bambi's ego is like, I can see him putting his own "brand" on the changes and fucking shit up completely.

#4 That's nice, but.....Article I, Section 8, reads -

The Congress shall have Power...

To make Rules for the Government and Regulation of the land and naval Forces;

One of the issues King Charles lost his head over whether he or Parliament had that power. The writers of the Constitution made sure that little issue was written into the document so that no 'misunderstanding' could occur again.

#5 P2k, so what? Obama considers the Constitution to be a living document to be modified on the fly, at will.

#6 ..till the impeachment process begins.

Notice here

101. (a) (2) is altered by Public Law to quote - "Repealed. Pub. L. 109163, div. A, title X, § 1057(a)(1), Jan. 6, 2006, 119 Stat. 3440.]"

Remember, they didn't get Capone on racketeering but on income tax. Never give your opponent an opening.
