(I wonder how Dempsey felt about Mr. John “reporting for duty” Kerry and his use of the “uniform” in Dempsey’s sense, for partisan politics.)
It’s one thing to claim that those in uniform should not, no, must not involve themselves officially in partisan politics. I whole heartedly and fully agree. It’s another to try and stifle the voices of retired service members who are speaking out on political (and military) issues they find important.
None. Of. Your. Business. General.
In fact, Dempsey trying to tell former service members to keep quiet about politics is, ironically, involving himself in partisan politics while in uniform.
