Earlier this year, the Obama Administration began dumping high-ranking military officials at exceedingly high rates. Up to 25 percent of the country’s generals and admirals may be on the outs, and now we may know how they will be replaced.
While some justified the layoffs by claiming that new leadership needed the opportunity to rise through the ranks, now Defense Secretary Ash Carter is attempting to open these high-level positions to those who aren’t even serving in the military.
The move has many scratching their heads, while others are outraged at the proposition. At the most basic level, this allows unqualified individuals to take control of the United States military. Perhaps more worryingly, this also would also allow the Obama administration to insert whoever they’d like into the roles once reserved for qualified, experienced servicemen.
Why Obama would crave this newfound power is anyone’s guess.

And they went to a “Safe Place’ to hide,and cry.
Count me in… What we need here is a “community organizer”!!!! Lol
Hasn’t he already broken the rules and been hiring these unfit people in the White House and govt. jobs???? So what’s changed??
Hard to believe. ..
Sounds more like the winds of a civil war are blowing yhe time is nearer.
and you wonder why he’s doing this????
I’ve got a better idea. Let’s hold a hearing with all the fired upper brass to see exactly why they were fired . I’d bet we would find an underlying theme.Failure to be complicit to attacking US citizens.
Trump is watching and will fire any of Obamas installed Traitors
Bad idea!
Really? And that’s okay with the Congress?
