Yep, complete control over the military & CIA, but they keep abusing their own people. The robo signing foreclosures on Military family homes... causes the military families to ask for donnations. The word spreads in the military that the Admin doesn't care for them as things start adding up.

Honor in service is hard if you know the system is doing things wrong. Individuals get corrupted by cirumstances. Even the gays that had to serve and lie about their sexuality knew that Honor was impossible if you have to lie or do corrupt things.

Hold up your hand and we will teach you honor and service. But it is probably a lot of military that have seen some stuff that they don't like.

Wonder what effect this is having on the other secret police in the USA?

It is one thing to protect the country from enemies - it is a different matter to engage in torturing.

Is this why secret service agents had a wild party while on assignment? They perhaps are feeling a bit disgusted with government actions?

Wonder if we will see more whistle-blowers or less - due to this mistreatment of people of conscience standing-up and sounding off for the sake of humanity.

Free Bradley Manning.
