Since when has it meant to obey a civilian Cmdr In Chief orders made a military General a lacky. What in blazes did the Gen officers do under Bush? You are a disrespectful Sgt in the marines . You are entitled to have an opinion and it is your job to obey orders as well as a Gen. You are not allowed to publicly disrespect publicly your superior officers, Sgt.

I suppose the general had to 'bow' to the Messiah, for after all, the Dear Leader is the Commander In Chief.

I used to admire Gen. David Petraeus. However, in recent weeks he has becoming an obama lacky. Most noted was the recent visit of obama to Afganistan. Gen. David Petraeus almost hurt his back, cowtowing to obama.
Please note; obama is NOT capitalized on purpose.
