Tea Party Marine kicked out

[Guns Guns Guns]

A Marine who used his Facebook page to criticize President Barack Obama has been discharged, a Marine Corps spokesman said Wednesday.


Sgt. Gary Stein was given an "other-than-honorable" discharge, said Capt. Brian Block, a spokesman for the Marines.


Among other comments posted to his Facebook page, Stein called Obama a liar and suggested he would not follow some orders issued by the president.


An other-than-honorable discharge is given to a Marine who commits a "serious offense" that significantly differs from conduct expected of a Marine, the Corps said.


A statement from the Marines said it approved the findings of a military board, which in March recommended the discharge.


The board found Stein violated rules limiting political conduct by service members.

Ah, it's like removing a stain with Dynamite, it may do the job, but god does it make a mess.

Really? They're tossing him out for "conduct unexpected in a marine."? Have they actually heart what the enlisted people call officers? Or even sergeants behind their back?

One down, more to go. How many more I may never know. Many more and that's for sure. Hypocrisy and disrespect has no cure. The thugs get in and then kicked out never failing to wail and shout. Why me, why me their unending plea, never understanding why they can't see. It's their own damned fault, the poison of self. You give that up when you join, abide it or else.

I agree with the decision. But something tells me YOU would feel rather differently if Bush were President..

My service was under Nixon, Reagan and Bush I. As an enlistee my job was to defend my country, it's constitution and obey all orders given me by whomever was designated my superior up to and including by all means the CIC. Your feelings betray you.
