Blast from the past. Cleaning house of generals is nothing new...Obama did it...

Let me say this before the liberal readers here chime in. 197 generals in 5 years is ALOT more than normal attrition. It's a purge. Didn't say it was bad back then, not saying its bad now. I am saying that perhaps its a good thing. For better or worse the General Officer Corps HAS BECOME MORE POLITICAL (or at least they're less shy about showing their political leanings). You pick the losing side you deal with the horns. You take a shot at the king you better not miss...ya'll know what I'm talking about...oh and once you do something and aren't forced to yield then it becomes precedent and you can't complain when the other side does it to you.
