The Colorado Springs Gazette has now published a video of the small gathering, in which an audience member can be heard encouraging Lamborn and other Republican congressmen to support U.S. soldiers “despite the fact that there is no leadership from the Muslim Brotherhood in the White House.”
Lamborn assures the crowd that he’s speaking with military leaders “behind the scenes” to publicize their displeasure at Obama’s approach to the military.
“You know what, I can’t add anything to that,” he said. “But do let me reassure you on this: A lot of us are talking to the generals behind the scenes saying, ‘Hey, if you disagree with the policy that the White House has given you, let’s have a resignation. Let’s have a public resignation and state your protest and go out in a blaze of glory.’ And I haven’t seen that very much. I haven’t seen that in years.”

I am dumbfounded by this behavior! I mean, I could swear that during the last Presidency - You know, the guy from Texas that causes the right to go apoplectic at the mere mention of his name? Yeah...that guy. I could have sworn that the general consensus was that merely criticizing the President during a "Time of War" was...what was that word they used? Oh, yeah!!! Unpatriotic! Now, suddenly its okay to not just criticize him, but to encourage his military leaders to quit?!?! At a time of war??!?! Really??Lamborn assures the crowd that he’s speaking with military leaders “behind the scenes” to publicize their displeasure at Obama’s approach to the military.
