Post was an idiot. He had multiple IG complaints against him when he was a Col at Hill AFB. A turd has been flushed in this case...

Nope, Obama just keeps taking out generals that go against his wishes.

I doubt Obama has much to do with it. Sounds like a self-important ass of a general. I'm sure he'll be retiring soon. Maybe Lockheed with hire him to lobby for the F-35.

Nope, Obama just keeps taking out generals that go against his wishes. When did you serve under his command?? I did...I am speaking from first hand experiences on the idiot. You are simply a Google Parrot. Calling fellow Airmen treasonous for disagreeing with your opinion, as a higher ranking official, are grounds for removal.

Seen it here over and over, generals only get canned because Obama doesn't like them opposing his wishes.

I know you are trolling, but I'll appease.
The President can not remove a General...only make a recommendation. If they refuse, he can initiate a court marshal.
I am not just parroting, like you do constantly, but I am talking from first hand experience with the guy. As in, standing tall in his office because one of my troops got too drunk at the E-Club and made a fool of himself. Post should have never made it past Colonel. He ran our sortie production into the ground, destroyed morale and had 20 some suicides under his command. At one point, he had somewhere around 10 IG investigations against him.

I am not parrotting anything on Google or trolling. It has been stated repeatedly on this forum that Obama is removing generals who oppose his desires and this is just another instance of that happening. Why blame him for someone committing suicide? Was it because they were getting too drunk also?

Your contention makes no sense. Post was trying to stop dissension in the ranks over retiring the A-10. Retiring the A-10 is what the Obama administration and the AF wants to do. He was simply got a little heavy handed with his approach and got the ire of some key Senators. At that point he became a political liability and a distraction and got thrown under the bus by the AF leadership.

Communists: I still hate them even after they changed their name to "liberals".

If Obama was on the same page as Post this would never have happened.

He and the general are joined at the hip. He doesn't sack those who support him, only those opposed. Been mentioned on this site numerous times.

Why you visiting a commie web site? I don't have any issues with you or most of the others here being communists since you are registered Republicans. Our party has had lots of influential communists in it at least since we were Whigs. http://www.newswithviews.com/Stang/alan30.htmdemocrats with communist leanings we can do without.

My IQ is seriously lower from reading this post. The complaint against the general was brought by John McCain, hardly an Obama Todie. Just keep repeating your inane narrative though, Sherp. Maybe if you say it enough times it'll come true.
And before you attack me and my background, just know I served sixteen years and did two GWOT tours, both times under idiots like the one just relieved of duty, so I know of what I speak.

Sounds like you are just a lib agreeing with Obama. The straight scoop here: http://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/8195718/1

Ah, pulling the old "lib" card. That's the best you got?
I read the attached post. Seems to support my take rather than refute it.
Just keep reading the interwebs echo chamber though. Wouldn't want to muddy the water with actual facts. How's that working out for you?
