[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 1878705, member: 1132"] The problem arises when people use their position in unethical ways. Every politician does it, but some cross a line. I think that's what the OPSEC Team is trying to point out. Our government has been misusing our military for a LONG time. Leaking classified information is a way of life for them. Would anyone listen to Joe the Plumber trying to get that message across? No. Will they listen to seasoned intel and spec-ops personnel? It's certainly more likely. I'll certainly say this. Of all the presidents we've had, I think Obama is easily the least fit to be Commander in Chief. He's pretty much the one POTUS that will make a conservative say they miss Slick Willie. We just thought we had it bad with Clinton. I think the one thing we can all agree on is this. We would've never heard of these guys if this administration hadn't openly bragged about how we got Osama, and done it within hours of getting him. Further, our abandonment of the Pakistani doctor who helped us is abhorrent. It was an operational and intelligence failure of the highest order to do these things. One that shouldn't be dismissed as politics as usual. :( [/QUOTE]
