Gen Mullen on CNN: "Military shouldn't be involved in Politics"
He made a special point of saying he's particularly troubled by recently retired senior officials. .

Why do I get the feeling he ISN'T talking about those Generals that the Pentagon trotted out to help with the big lies. . .?

1. The good Admiral KNOWS he has no control over retired military
personnel! For as long as I can remember, military personnal at all levels we told to STAY OUT OF POLITICS, and even reserves were told they could not participate in political activities while in uniform. Since we have activated so many NG forces, I guess he felt the need to tell those folks THEY TOO had to comply with that order.
