How ridiculous is this? A sitting United States congressman, caught on camera admitting that he and others in congress – all Republicans I’m sure – are urging Generals to quit at a time of war, clearly for political reasons.

U.S. Rep. Doug Lamborn made the shocking statement at a town-hall type meeting he had in Colorado after a man in the audience called on Lamborn to support the generals because of the “Muslim Brotherhood in the White House” and FREEDOM! You know, the usual nonsense that shows just how uneducated these Republican voters really are, and how they are more than satisfied to remain ignorant.

Then came this from the Republican congressman.

“A lot of us are talking to the generals behind the scenes, saying, ‘Hey, if you disagree with the policy the White House has given you, let’s have a resignation. You know, let’s have a public resignation, and state your protest, and go out in a blaze of glory.”

I remember the days when politics stopped at the water’s edge and both sides – Democrats and Republicans – came together to show a unified face when our military was engaged in a war. Those days are long gone with the wind, and Republicans like Doug Lamborn are asking our generals to go too!
