5. Do these bitch-ass Birthers think this is "A Few Good Men"?
Do they not GET this little thing called "Chain of Command"? Last I checked, Four Star generals ain't even near the line of succession to the CIC. And I love the wing-ding comments on Politico. If stupid were a yellow brick, munchkins would be dancin up and down their asses.

12. At the pleasure of the President...
That's how our military officers serve, particularly the general officers.

He is, after all, the Commander in Chief of the military services.
