An Army of None: Why General Casey Needs to Go

Political correctness leaves the US Army leaderless

This week, during an interview by David Gregory, General Casey, Chief of Staff of the US Army, said the following:

"Yeah. I think those concerns are real and I, and I will tell you, David, that they're, they're fueled partially, at least, by the speculation about--based on anecdotal evidence that people are presenting. I think we have to be very careful with that. Our diversity not only in our Army, but in our country, is a strength. And as horrific as this tragedy was, if our diversity becomes a casualty, I think that's worse."

As soon as one realizes what the general has said in this mind-numbingly idiotic statement, one becomes aware of the trouble we're really facing as a nation.

Damage to 'diversity" is a greater loss than the security of our troops, the 13 people we've lost, and the dozens more who have been injured or maimed? Any general who believes this garbage does not deserve the rank. We have been attacked by a politically/religiously motivated Islamofascist, and all this numbskull general is worried about is the damage done to diversity?

Ahem, Hey General: SCREW DIVERSITY.

Diversity is irrelevant to a fighting force, and in fact can actually hamper or obstruct it.  Focusing on diversity, as a military objective, is the most ludicrous notion we've yet seen. You would be fired, but for the fact that our current President, your boss, doubtless laps up this bilge-water.

I live in central Texas, and this was quite the ordeal for our community, one that hasn't ended yet, in fact, and all you are worried about is diversity, General Casey? Hand in your stars. You are an embarrassment to every soldier who ever wore the uniform of the United States, myself included.
