Michael Moore Hates Soldiers
Author: Michael Kraft
Unlike politicians, community organizers and Hollywood activists, Generals in our military have all earned their way to the top through a process of achievement and hard work. Generals are the soldiers of last generation that have earned the respect of their peers to be promoted to lead.
Generals in the military are not community organizers that became president in 3 years. Generals are not Junior Senators with 18 months experience that become president because they are black. Generals have all gone through the very long process of learning to lead men and the military.
Now Michael Moore says “he hates the Generals” in our military. How typical of the mouthpiece of the left.
Big newsflash: The left hates the soldiers.
From America’s Watchtower:
“Michael Moore has sent a letter to the president stating his opposition to the troop surge in Afghanistan that Barack Obama appears poised to announce in a few short minutes. I have to give Michael Moore just a little bit of credit; he opposed a troop surge under President Bush and he opposes a troop surge under Barack Obama. At least he is consistent, unlike people like John Kerry, who opposed the Bush surge but agrees with the Obama surge. He is being consistent with his beliefs regardless of who the president is.
That is where my defense of this man ends.
Michael Moore, who voted for Barack Obama, must have missed Obama’s pledge during the campaign to increase troop levels in Afghanistan. Or else he just ignored Obama’s position on the Afghanistan war. Either way, here is what Michael Moore had to say in his letter to the president:
It is not your job to do what the generals tell you to do
Very true, however it is Barack Obama’s job to listen to the general’s opinion during a war, take into account his assessment, and then make a decision based on those requests. Sure it has taken Barack Obama way too much time to make a decision, but he has finally made one. Much to Michael Moore’s dismay this is one campaign promise that Barack Obama is going to keep.
Michael Moore’s letter continued:
Let me be blunt: We love our kids in the armed services, but we f*#&in’ hate these generals
To this I would ask Michael Moore why he places the blame on the generals in the field. Why does he disdain the generals while claiming to love “our kids in the armed services.” These generals, much like “our kids in the armed services” are doing the jobs that they were called upon to perform.
In this aspect these generals are no different than the others who are fighting in this war. Sure they hold a higher rank and decisions fall on them. They have choices and decisions to make and responsibilities that Americans can never fully comprehend. The pressure on the generals is great, as it is on all of the troops. These generals are over there for the same reasons that the troops are. They were sent there to do a job and that is what they are trying to do. To focus anger on them seems unjustified to me. It is misplaced anger.
Michael Moore can oppose the war and the surge if he wants to, that is his prerogative. But he should focus his anger on the man who sent them over there, and the man who is now continuing to send them over there, and not on the generals who are trying to succeed in an effort that they did not choose. This is where Michael Moore becomes two-faced, while he blamed Bush for the Iraq troop surge, he is blaming the generals for the Afghanistan troop surge and not Barack Obama.
These generals deserve our utmost respect, not unwarranted hatred such as Michael Moore displays. Michael Moore would do well to remember that ALL of those who chose to answer the call to keep us safe and secure deserve our respect– these generals included.
