I don't mind hard jabs at any president, as long as it's at policy accompanied with productive alternative ideas. But when it gets personal, degrading and disrespectful? It's uncalled for and inexcusable.
no my friend. He had been accused of sexual harrassment by a democrat and he was under oath giving a deposition in that case where this democrat was sueing him.

I dont agree with that. adultery really isnt the issue.

if you had ever been in the military, you would not be so quick to disagree with the policy... for the military.

we do agree that the president isnt military and should not be subject to the UCMJ

And she chose this particular time to accuse him......why? Hmmm.....

We can go round and round on this, I know that. I'm still gonna say, "Witchhunt" and you're still gonna say, "He lied!"

Admittedly, I'm not military but I've read the reasonings behind it and I don't agree, but I also admit that I tend to see these issues a bit more liberally than most. Can you explain the reasoning behind the policy?

I just don't think it should have escalated to the point it did. I believe if he had been the owner of Bob Smith Chevrolet, not a soul in any justice department anywhere would have ever heard a word about it.

there are several and all worth considering.

first you have to understand that in the military, our lives are very much dependant on the mindset of the guy standing next to us.

That is the starting point of the policy. Second, you have to know a bit about miltary life. it is rough. there are always extended periods away from loved ones and divorce is already very high.

if a military guy has an afair with another military mans wife, he puts other guys in danger.
