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.

Time to clean house.
Hitler all over again.
It is the politicians. Obama has discharged a good number of generals, admirals, etc. He is set to let more go soon. Someone needs to step up and see what is happening here and put a freeze on it until after the elections. Assuming we have any congressmen has has any balls and morals left.
Probably put ISIS in charge of our military.
Like the E-2 to E-7 out of basidctraining; this ain’t gonna work and someone has got to stop obama or someone in his adminstration from pulling this off. They are going to do away with the military as we know it and replace it with their own goons (puppets). This is the “hands down” worst idea to come out of that “scumbag motel” they call the White House!
Don’t let this happen because Obama will fill it with muslims or people who likes him and kisses his sickening feet then they will be able to destroy this country within. Just feel how you will when you are sitting at home without any sports to watch or go see and then see how you will like this decision. The military should be left up to the miltiary they have the promotional system that works.
Or really stupid idiots that don’t know what they are doing.
in order to asppoint puppets
No
A rule change! more BS Obama demilitarization to weaken us even further. Congress get involved now. Do go to sleep again.
