Retired Gen. James “Mad Dog” Mattis is poised to take over as secretary of defense — and it has President Barack Obama terrified.
For years, the Obama administration worried about Mattis because of his no-nonsense attitude, and his uncompromising beliefs.
And according to The Associated Press, the Obama administration fears Mattis’ leadership will greatly help President-elect Donald Trump undo the controversial nuclear deal with Iran.
Mattis views Tehran as a menace in the Middle East, and would work for a president, Donald Trump, who has pledged to toughen U.S. policy toward Iran. That could have broad implications as the incoming administration weighs modifying the 2015 Iran nuclear deal and reconfiguring American posture in the Middle East after numerous complaints from U.S. allies that Obama yielded too much ground to Tehran.
And it has Obama terrified his work will be undone.
Mattis will become the first career military officer in charge of the Pentagon since the 1950s, and said Thursday he would have no problem embracing the tradition of civilian control of the military.
In testimony prepared for his Senate Armed Services Committee hearing, Mattis said he understands his role as the Defense Department’s civilian leader would be different “in essence and in substance” from his four decades in uniform.
“The esprit-de-corps of our military, its can-do spirit, and its obedience to civilian leadership reduces the inclination and power of the military to criticize or oppose the policy it is ultimately ordered to implement,” Mattis said. He called civilian control “a fundamental tenet of the American military tradition.”
Mattis, 66, retired in 2013 after serving as commander of U.S. Central Command in charge of all U.S. forces in the Middle East.
In his opening remarks to senators, Mattis expressed unqualified support for traditional U.S. international alliances.
“History is clear: Nations with strong allies thrive and those without them wither,” Mattis said.
Mattis also formerly led NATO’s transformation command, which seeks to adapt the alliance’s structure and capabilities for 21st century threats.
Before Mattis can join the Cabinet, Congress must approve a one-time exception to a law requiring a military officer to be out of uniform for at least seven years before leading the Pentagon. Even some of Trump’s strongest critics say Mattis merits the exception.
Eliot A. Cohen, a senior State Department counselor in President George W. Bush’s administration who has publicly criticized the incoming Trump team, said at a Senate hearing this week that Mattis “would be a stabilizing and moderating force” and is a great addition to the Trump administration.
Trump has selected two other recently retired generals for top jobs in his administration.
Michael Flynn, who left the Army as a lieutenant general in 2014 after a tumultuous tenure as the Defense Intelligence Agency’s director, is Trump’s national security adviser. Marine Gen. John Kelly, who retired in 2016, was chosen to head the Department of Homeland Security.
Mattis could attract top-notch talent to the Pentagon, said Richard Fontaine, the Center for a New American Security’s president.
“He has a reputation as a leader of exceptional integrity who inspires his subordinates and speaks truth to power,” Fontaine said in an email.
A contrast to Obama, indeed.

This administration detests anyone who is patriotic, has common sense and wants a strong nation.
Those that are in know they will be out soon and that is why some are turning against Trump and who he picks for his team…..we need a leader to make things better and the last administration could not do this… obama stayed with the old players and went along and no one would agree with him\…. he had to agree with them….. Trump/Pence are badly needed for the sake of this country…….
Sick em Donald bite em hard and do not let go, you can do it the people have spoken you have been chosen ……
Amen. Trump fear no one and knows who to put in important positions. President Trump, the people are on your side.
Amen, we Love u President Trump!!
I cant wait to have that mooching traitor with his moslum thinking ways and his leac sucking attachemrts REMOVED from OUR White Househe. He is working so hard to make this the worse transition he will go to any length to make it hard for OUR man “Trump” but he is a fighter and he knows what to do . He didnt get where he is now with out going into the trenches…LUV the MAN: Making America Great again:
I certainly have faith in Mr. Trump. He is the best thing that happened to America after 8 years of corruption and empty promises. Mr. Obama can continue to play golf and creat his legacy in that.
So do I, May G-D keep him safe and please let these 8 days left fly fast
like a bird.
Right on Trump I second that we love you walk softly and carry a huge stick and use it whenever you have too ! May God bless you and keep up the good work you haven’t even started yet and you’re already kicking their ass I love it we all love it thank you mr. Trump
Trump the lowlife COWARD that bragged in his book “I was out chasing women while other FOOLS enlisted or were drafted during Vietnam.” He;s a disgrace to all the men and women presently serving, all veteran’s and all the patriotic citizens in the USofA. All you Trump Chumps make sure you buy his new body wash “Golden Showers” when it’s produced in his new Russian factory. Imbeciles!!
I am a VN Vet and I don’t feel he is a disgrace. I believe he is more patriotic than you. He is our new president , as such if you were patriotic you would support him. How many college students got deferred during that time frame? I volunteered, I was one of 4 RA’s out of a Basic Training Unit of 176. The rest were draftees. What did you do?
You must be a dumbocrate and i am a vet.
Oh! Peter, you people are sore losers, but losers never the less! Stop peeing the bed and your pants. Grow up. We won, you lost!
Peter Anton in response to your comments. You are an idiot, Obama is the Coward, what he has done to our country is Treason an he’s gay an has a tranny wife hello!! Obama & Hillary should go to prison for what they have done. Corrupted adminstration, we are very lucky to have Trump who isn’t afraid to kick your Ass for such a comment as that. Get real you tratior!!
I think you were the imbecile. Funny how veterans support Trump. Funny how law enforcement supports Trump. Funny how families from veterans and of the military supports Trump.
Funny how all the violence and destruction in our country….All the backstabbing of one’s party in our country….All the laws being broken in our country and all the unethical actions in our country are being committed by Democraps and they call Trump supporters violent and deplorable. Such hypocrites at Liars you are.
Yeah because saying inappropriate things about women is way more important than the security of our nation and its people because someone’s feelings might get hurt. And now they go to a shrink because they’ve become emotionally distraught. So the shrink hands them some play-doh and coloring books to help them cope better right after getting some hugs.
Yo, “Peter.”
Do you know what an “agent provacateur” is? i do, and i think you ARE one. You use inflammatory language and insult to provoke a response, and make completely baseless allegations offering ZERO proof.
You don’t like Trump, that’s obvious. i’d advise you to take a vacation from America for the next four years.
Go anywhere in the world that you like – anywhere, any other country, Venezuela to Russia to Australia – then when the 4 years is up, come back to the Wall and beg to be let back in.
Until that time, you can keep your vitriol to yourself – it will burn you anyway, lest you repent, and be quick about it.
B–w a Mule
Go spread your Hateful Leftist VENUM on your Dispicable, Deplorable, safe space, snowflaky side. Your idiotic comments are not welcomed here.
Stop your whining and your snivelling snowflake we are all Fed Up and sick and tired of you liberal with these sniveling about every little thing wake up smell the coffee you lost there’s no trophy for second place suck it up buttercup
watch the movie, “HILLARY’S AMERICA”. iT’ll change you mind real quick about Republicans, that is, if you even got a mind to change.
Cheers for Trump and Pence and goodbye to obummer.
you are too polite!
I’m with you Retired, all the way. Get President Donald J. Trump.
Hooooyah! Sgt. to Cpt. USARet 5thSFG. It ain’t hate, it’s history. Mattis knows history, politicians ignore it. Those who ignore it, will end up on the ash heap of history.
Matis is the best pick! Obama got rid of all the good generals a few years ago. Trump picked them up because they were the best! Obama kept all the slugs!
Those who refuse to to learn from history are destine to repeat it.
right on bite the good and hard and the next election they will loose more seats in both houses again now the shoe is on the other foot. Thank you Mr Trump for running for president
go D J T only 7 more days MR PRESIDENT TRUMP
you ae so right GO DJT, do the job you was elected to do.
THOSE WHO ARE NOW MAD, WILL SOON BE GLAD…………EXCEPT FOR PAST POLITICAL FIGURES,
WHO ARE NOW RUNNING SCARED AND SCREAMING AS THEY DO………..TIME WILL BRING FORTH THE TRUTH……
Obama was, is and always will be a total washout due to his delusions of grandeur which only he sees in himself, If anyone else says the same, they are lying and licking his boots!
Makes me think of an old song, he is a legend in his own mind. So useless, and a traitor. to the country. I think Joan Rivers was right.
I bet he’s afraid of small ants, and Butterflies. Counting the minutes until he’s out, then a Real American walks into our House!!!
SURE HOPE TRUMP FUMIGATES THE WHITE HOUSE BEFORE MOVING IN…..
Oh no OBAMA and his team of Muslims are afraid. Very afraid. Obama might go over and kneel down and start kissing to kiss and make up. Hasn’t seemed to work so far. Obama might get punched in the face. A black eye, a flattened nose and swollen lips. Oh he was born with that.
To: AKJRSK,,, I HAVE been behind TRUMP , A supporter, all the way. Financially, as well as with my wife, and with our own personal votes. But All Of your racial slurs are not necessary, or helping DONALD TRUMP, or his presidency… you don’t hear V.P.E. Mike Pence talk about people like you do. YOU just Fuel the fire of the liberal ” Odumbo'” & his cronies… you sound like they Do with your predudism… please stop it, IF you are really trying to help MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN !!!
Will, calling names is not nice, true, but us ‘deplorables’ have to let off steam from time to time and since Sheriff Joe Arpaio, after a 5 year investigation, has concluded with certainty that Obama presented us with a FORGED BIRTH CERTIFICATE, all Patriots should be angry, including Democrats. This proof has been turned over to the Feds. Unfortunately, they consist of Obama picks. Will they be patriots or obamaists??? Check the Arpaio news conference for verification on the web. I hope this matter is carried forward by the Trump Justice Dept to clear this up once and for all. In spite of all his charm, if he has perpetrated the greatest crime in our history, I want justice done so our beguiled citizens will recognize him for what he is. He intends to stay in D.C. to make Trump’s presidency a nightmare with his usual indifference to the good of the country.
Best thing that can happen is Impeachment of Obama- then, at least, he’d be held accountable for the damages he has done- and we wouldn’t have to keep paying his way!
THAT would send the right message vs. letting him slither out the door and continue doing damage , funded by us…
Frank Lee Arnold-
Only LEGITIMATE office-holders can be impeached, and to even TRY would be to legitimize D’OweBama’s fraud, personation, and deception. He is not now, never was, and never will be “natural born” as the Constitution requires and the First Congress defined in their Second Session…that is, he doesn’t have TWO(count ’em, 2) parents who were Citizens at the time of his birth.
He should just be arrested, tried, and convicted on multiple charges, right on up to Treason, for although he spoke quite badly about the Constitution during his self-serving “farewell” address, it’s still the Supreme Law of the Land(says so, right in Article 6), and the ONLY crime defined within it’s 4 corners is Treason. D’OweBama fits the description.
Don’t talk about your mother like that
Obama’s legacy will include only one thing…. That he is the worst President the United States has ever had. This post cas formerly occupied by James Carter. But unlike Carter, whose heart was in the right place, Obama attempted to dismantle the European American Christian Country of ours because of his hatred for White America. One could go on for pages about the destruction this POS has leveled on this Country but what the Hell. He’s gone and no follow-up with the witch from Illinois.
RACIST PIG.
You are right, Mr. Obama is a racist pig!
Feelings before anything else is the stupidest and the most assbackward I’d ever seen.
I second that Dr. D. You hit the nail directly on the head.
His whole agenda was to destroy America as we know it. He’s losing, LOST, and like a spoiled BRAT, is doing every thing he can to degrade and compromise the best thing that has EVER happened to OUR Country,, Like Barbara says, WE TRUE AMERICANS LOVE YOU PRESIDENT TRUMP
THANK YOU THANK YOU and THANK YOU
Ditto. We are for President Trump and Vice President Pence. So help us God. Guide our country thru our leaders. Amen!
IF OBAMA IS SCARED… I AM HAPPY!!! WHEN OBAMA IS IN JAIL,… I WILL DANCE IN THE STREETS!!
AMEN< lol
ALELULLA GLORY TO GOD AMEN GOD BLESS YOU AND AMERICA
you need a partner?
IF OBAMA IS SCARED… I AM HAPPY!!! WHEN OBAMA IS IN JAIL,… I WILL DANCE IN THE STREETS!!
What he detests is his Islamic brethren getting blown to smitherines
I agree completely. Obama has been a dsaster for this country, bowing down to the Arab shieks and apolozizing to every one of our eneies, givin Iran billions of dollars. Obama should go to jail. I hope trump investigates Obama and finds out where he came from.
Obama should hang for treason
To:Askjrk, on this option, I AM IN TOTAL AGREEMENT WITH YOU… GOD BLESS AMERICA ! GOD BLESS DONLD TRUMP & MIKE PENCE, AND THEIR FAMILY’S.
I agree!!
Exactly! God bless America and President Trump!
he should be tried for treason for selling 130 tons of uranium to our enemy Iran. hillary should be tried for the uranium deal with Russia.
WHAT IN THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THESE MORONS?????????
Yes i sure hope he investigates him!!
OBAMA IS THE UNKNOWN PRESIDENT. THAT’S WHAT EVIL DO HIDE THE IDENTITY. .
shhh. he has to get into office, otherwise, yomama can pardon folks, including himself. wait to the 21st; then start screaming.
Anthony’s Weiner scares Obama!
Obama is Gay… He is not afraid of Anthony’s “Weiner ” . He’s probably very fond of it…
Time for the pajama boys to vacate the White House and allow the Alpha men to come in!!!
WHAT ARE THEY AFRAID OF. LOSING. THEY ALREADY LOST. OBAMI IS NOTHING BUT A LOSER
Heck, because I am not sure if I can use the work hell here, Obama is afraid of his won shadow or even a butterfly knowing full well that he has transgressed so much that it would be like going to a grocery store to select which law he has broken to prosecute him on. This gutless wonder for the last 8 years has shown that the liberals have sold out common since and the pride of the nation for their own power, position, and enrichenment at the cost of everyone else including the Constitution of the United States. Both Obama and his ilk have spit in the face of every veteran both alive and dead, turned every founder of our Great Nation over in their graves, lied and cheated every hard working and civilized citizen in the USA. Not only I but a nation of sane people have said that is enough and gone to an outside the Washington DC belt line for new leadership and now the liberals are crapping in their boots. We need to help change the direction of this nation, “drain the swamp”, get rid of the career political leaders who are too senile to know their time was over years ago, like McCain. They will fight, they will complain, lie, cheat, and scream, but we must prevail if we are to save this nation for our children and the future.

obummer should fear anyone witht the courage to stand up for what is right for America.
your abso;itely correct obummer should fear anyone with the courage to stand up for what is right for America.
I voted for Obama last cycle; I thought his seemingly tolerant attitude would heal our racial wounds and bring us all together: wrong! He has contributed to a perilous world . He selected some very weak cabinet members ( secnav mebus, secdef carter, secstate ) along with a dysfunctional congress ( clearly not barry’s fault), and Obama’s feckless foreign policy – which is self explanatory, thus no need to qualify. Yeah, he may be worried about Mattis & the new administration, but for me; I have been scared sh*!ess for last 3 plus years due to above comments. Obama is certainly a cerebral and talented politician, but he never ever helped our nation or our people. He is not deserving of positive legacy.
Obama ain’t an American he should move to Iran and stay there. He does not support Israel at all that’s why he will be cursed forever. Obama, sorry but you will not have any chance from now on. GOD is the one and only one that put Trump as president and there’s nothing you or any else can do about it. You can try, but as a warning GOD is watching you Obama in every move you make against Trump and if you Obama are out to get Trump you better think twice because you will suffer the consequences for your evil doings.
Obama make the right choice or else suffer. In addition, your family will be affected too because of you.
God is the one that is putting the right people in position to take care of business and undo the bad decisions you made (it’s a lot). Your the only President that spent the most money of all the presidents and now we are deeply in debt. Thank GOD your term is over and you will never ever be president again because GOD will not let that happen again ever (you are just a smooth talker, that’s it), Amennnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!
No, actually, they detest anyone that they can NOT control. Did you ever wonder why there are so many – now dead Generals and Admirals over the last 8 years? Not to forget to mention U.S. Supreme Court Justices………..
Check it out.
My “little” dog would scare Obama. He is a WIMP!!!
Shoot! Obumma’s probably scared of his own shadow
It is so very obvious as you watch this man try to speak to other world leaders. Obama is an embarrassment to America.
Always has been and always will be an embarrassment to America,
time he got put out of office before he sold out to the Chinese and the mu-slums.
You said a mouth full!!!!!!!
Ditto! But not soon enough. He and his minions are still causing a lot of trouble! Time to go-NOW!
COULDN’T AGREE MORE!!!
Excellent pick for Secretary of Defense!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hear! Hear!!!!
You are absolutely right!!!!
Hear! Hear!!!!
I agree 100%. AMERICA will have a chance to regain respect and improve itself in the world with good leadership from good people who want to make it great again.
I give all Glory to God on High!!
I agree completely! I look forward to a new Administration and am very trusting that Trump and his cabinet will get this country back to its former respected condition. I am concerned however about the far left liberals. They seem to stop at nothing to discredit this president elect. I include the totally biased media!
Democrats don’t want to see not only trump but this country great and be respected by the world, because they can’t get it fix.2016 is the end of the democrats
He is EXACTLY what we need DEFENDING our Country, for once!!! It has NOT been defended for 8 yrs. now, and it is ABOUT TIME we got someone that is not afraid of his own shadow like we have had for the past 8!!!
AT LAST!!! WE HAVE A LEADER IN THE WHITE HOUSE INSTEAD OF A WEAK KNEED, WEAK WRIST SON OF A muslim PIG AND A WHORE!!! THANK YOU, MR. TRUMP, FOR BEING THE LEADER ODUMB-ASS NEVER, EVER COULD BE…. UNLESS IT WAS THE PUSH TO GET MORE muslim ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS IN TO THREATEN US AS THEY DID IN EUROPE!!! CAN WE PUT THEM ALL ON A BARGE ALONG WITH THE muslim BITCH AND BASTARD IN THE MIDDLE OF A HURRICANE?????
Hey Debbie,
Imho you need some help. But I am happy you have finally got the President you sooo richly deserve. Would love to hear your thoughts in about 18 months when his great leadership has fully embedded in the nation.
It will be rave reviews!
Debbie we need to put the muslim simpathizer cj58 on the boat with the rest of the muslims!
Another ‘Died in the wool’, Blind, Deaf and Dumb Democrat!
J Moon you hit it right on the head. Libtards lie cheat steal and murder. They all have been BRAIN WASHED by the MSM for many years. I think it’s funny how we get a few libtards on here to whine and cry and try to put our great PE TRUMP down. But I will bet everyone of us TRUMP supporters never have been on a libtard site to do the same. Because we have something they don’t CLASS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh believe me ole buddy. You will be hearing from us for a long time. You will quite down once you see all the good things he ins going to do. Surely you have family so Im sure it will please you to see them do good. Come back this time next year and we will talk.
One thing is for sure. TRUMP’ s legacy, will never be worse, or even close to the legacy of the TRAITOR , BARRAK HUSSAIN OBAMAH …
He certainly has a hard road ahead since Obama purposely set many pitfalls for him in addition t0 recklessly (or purposely) bankrupting our country in his efforts to import Democrats dependent on him, keep black Americans dependent on him, enlarge the Muslim population who will be dependent on him, keep illegal immigrants dependent on him not to send them back to their own countries and enrich the Muslim countries with American Workers Taxes. He has been more of a danger to our country than ISIS.
Debbie you and I are in total agreement
Deport ALL muslims, illegals of ALL types, the Hill & Bill show & Most certainly the muslim porch monkey & his g-rilla in heals!! Don’t just drain the DC swamp, drain ALL septic tank sludge from our country, including ALL the “actors” that want the communist/globalists to rule!! Send them ALL to the soros island, THEN nuke all the scum at one time!! (Make sure that soros is there also!!) 1 nuke, MANY problems solved!!
It is about time we have a President that loves the United States and willing to work for all the people who came into the united states legally. We need to send all illegals out of the United States. Let them come back in only if they come in legally and follow the constitution the way it is supposed to be followed. We need to remind all that english is the language you must learn and speak at all time while living here. This also has gotten out of hand for years and needs to be corrected. Obama Should shut his mouth and go back to his Muslim country where he belongs, and thats not in the United States. Obama has hurt the United States in his 8 years so much it will take President Trump all his 8 years just to correct the damage . Treason is the word for Obama’s and Clinton’s they have hurt the united states with there money laundry scam and sold us out to other countries and tried to tern us into Muslim country. They should go to Jail.
I’m sure that’s what GOD would want us to do… since we’re supposed to be a Nation Under God… right??? You sound stupid As They do. (Obomah n his cronies).
Sounds like a “PLAN” to me!!!
One of his first actions needs to be rooting out all the rats and moles Obama has inserted in the pentagon and left behind
AND the “bugs”!! I would be willing to BET that he has had the WH BUGGED from top to bottom!! It needs to be SWEPT CLEAN before PRESIDENT Trump ever steps foot in it!!!
We need leaders like we had in world War II.
General George Patton was the last.
I have a theory that Patton was assassinated by the (communoid) OSS, to prevent his return to the USA, because he could have taken over the reins of the government thorough a coup d’état. George Patton and Curtis LeMay were the last fire-breathing general officers — until “Mad Dog” came along. God bless them all!
Greg Says Mad Dog Was OSS and he was hired to kill Patton at least that is A rumor that I read my Father Was tank commander under Patton. That is Why My research into Patton
I rather liked ” Stormin
Norman”, but I think he was disgusted with the
corruption. Had the honor of meeting the man, very classy!
Anyone that Obama opposes must be good for the country. He has destroyed the military. And fired too people. Good riddance to him.
Obama make USA weaker before other countries
such as Russia, China…No wander Philippino
president called Obama son of a bitch and China refused to give him red carpet and running stair to US airforce one.
THE PILIPINO PRESIDENT KNOWS THAT OBAMA IS WEAK AND HOMO THAT’S WHY HE SAYS THAT…YES THE PILIPINO PRESIDENT IS RIGHT THAT HE IS THE “SOB” ASSHOLE.
He will correct the damage done to our military and America by POS Obama.
C3PO needs to put his R2D2 up Obama’s Millenium Falcon!!
LOL! Randy-couldn’t have said it better, myself! Love it!
God bless America! Finally a secretary of defense with some bal- … er, guts.
Obama needs to be scared of allot more people then just General Mattis !! The whole world hates Obama guts!!! Except the suck ass liberals but then every one hates their guts too!!!
God bless America! Finally as secretary of defense with some guts. Democrats tremble at the mere sound of his name.
God bless America! Finally as secretary of defense with some guts. Democrats tremble at the mere sound of his name.
If O’Bumfug had declared martial law to prevent Trump from assuming the presidency, you can bet your bottom dollar that “Mad Dog” would have staged a coup d’état, arrested Hussein, and tried him under the UCMJ for high treason. I hope the general runs for president in four or eight years.
Mattis will provide some back bone that is much needed.
The Trump administration looks better with every appointment. It is going to be refreshing to have the government under competent leadership for a change.
The Obama lead through weakness philosophy was bad for our nation. It is time to change course and reassume our lead through strength position. When we lead from a position of strength President Putin is going to realize that his days of easy conquests are over.
Mad Dog Mattis Would Be An Great Improvement To All Obama’s Yes Men Who’s Every Decision Was Based On Politics Which Was Handed Down By Obama And His Equally Corrupt And Treasonous Advisers. You Can Be Assured That The Trump Administration Will Never Sell This Country Out To Our Adversaries Which Was Standard Operating Procedure Of The Obama Administration.
ovimit NEEDS to be worried, his legacy of failure and downright treason with Iran is going to be negated. Like Newt said “In 6 months, you’ll need to use a microscope to see Obama’s legacy.” Accurate paraphrase.
I’m to old to serve in the military but would enlist in a minute if I was asked to especially under the command of General Mattis!
Me too Darryl. I was in the army from 75 to 78. I am 59 but still in pretty good shape. If needed I would go back in the military to defend our nation because I see a lot of the young ones are not up to it. I’m not as physically strong as these young guys but a whole lot more mentally tough then a lot of these college kids.
After 38 years and now
medically retired, I would still happily and proudly serve if I could!
We all know obozo is a homosexual muslim and should be sent back to Kenya, problem Kenya doesn’t want him either. I have a lot of friends that are muslim and I have no problem with them. The ones I do have a problem with are the radicule muslim scum.
You have to remember, they all read and believe in the same bible, they will lie, even though it is against their religion to lie, to achieve their ends, which is fine in that case. Do not trust them.
John-
i have read – and verified with my Muslim next-door-neighbor – that the Qu’ran authorizes lying in 3 circumstances:
1. As a strategy of war;
2. To avoid persecution;
3. To your wife.
The bible, OTOH, is clear; the Revelation of John states that “all liars will have their part in the lake of fire.”
Is there an exception to “all”?
Mattis didn’t retire voluntarily. He was forced to retire by the muslime liar in chief because he was not a YES man.
Get rid of the maricon in de white house
Get rid of the maricon in de white house
Get rid of the maricon in de white house
Hooray! Or should I say Hoo-Rah! General Mattis won’t slavishly implement social experiments into our military and will restore it to the culture it was intended to be… A warrior class.
No more Obama, Clinton, Pelosi, Schumer Crapolio. We now have a secretary of the Army who plays for the pink team. I highly doubt that will continue under Donald Trump’s administration. The American military must be restored to fighting strength and once again be respected and yes, feared around the world.
Agreed and well stated .. If we are to become a Superpower once again . We had better take a walk down memory lane .. and glimpse at the 2 last defeats .. Vietnam and Iraq.. cost the United States.. over 12 trillion dollars and we have absolutely nothing to show for it !! We should be paying next to nothing for a barrel of crude oil .
The only social experiment the military should be involved in is deploying the National Guard to bust up anti-Trump demonstrations and violent BLM riots.
I completely agree! And one of our greatest mistakes ( imho) was dismantling SAC! That
move made them think we were weak, and they’ve taken advantage ever since.
The leadership of a Military Commander, has been needed in the Pentagon , much longer than we expected. I support Trumps decision ..giving The Mad Dog , command in the Middle East. Iran and many of it’s Muslim Brotherhood Alliance… would like nothing more than to cripple the United States and it’s Freedoms which we choose to live under .
Obama , has given our enemies core value and support far too long now !
I am sure someone on the far left is trying to find something that will derail this well chosen man for the job Trump wants him for. Lets hope the good side on the right wins this round.
Without question General Mattis will be the next Secretary of Defense and the losers around the world that have had their way with the United States for the past eight years will be trembling just as the poser in chief obama is.
It’s great to hear such positive feedback on our “NEW PRESIDENT’S” choice for Secretary of Defense. And I think that he will be just what we have needed since the last Republican was in the White House. It’s time to take our country back ; and make it the great nation that it was before 2008! Thanks for all of your positive feedback on General Mattis!
… AND THAT IS BECAUSE HE WILL STAND UP FOR AMERICA AND DO THE RIGHT THING. HE WILL FAVOR AMERICA AND FIGHT FOR US AGAIN. SOMETHING WE HAVEN’T HAD IN EIGHT YEARS … BO NEEDS TO BE SCARED TO DEATH. WE’VE ALL BEEN SCARED TO DEATH OF LATE BECAUSE OF THE TREASONIST DECISIONS THAT HE’S MADE.
The only thing that doesn’t scare Obama- is a golf club. One up along his Muslim head would be a good thing.
It’s people like General Mattis who saved this nation from England, Mexico, Nazi Germany, Japan, and Soviet Russia. Why WOULDN’T Obama want him as the Secretary of Defense? Oh, THAT’s right: Obama Hates America.
Bingo!
iF the last 8 years have taught us anything it is that if you do the exact opposite of what Obama & the democratic party want, you are doing the right thing 90% of the time. [they have been correct about 10%]
Only scary to our enemies so no wonder he scares the big Zero.
Good a test passed right out of the box, this general the man for the job.
I look at a person character and I like General Mattis and think he is perfect for this job! Good choice President elect Trump!
The Pets.Com Sock Pupped scares scares Boob-bama…sure glad that sissy is leaving.
Obozo the “Big Eared” Clown would be frightened of “little old ladies, children and puppies” – thank God the Coward is out next Friday. We’ll have a real man in the White House surrounded by Hero’s Generals Maddox and Kelly to offer legitimate advice as opposed to the likes of Jarret, Rice and Kerry.
General Mattis is the EXACT RIGHT GUY for for the Secretary of Defense post. The fact that Boob-bama is scared is an added bonus. Get on your sissy bike and ride, Barry. And hope that America doesn’t come after you for your massive treason. Go hide, if you can. We won’t forget.
My grandfather was sea captain and sailed the world for over 50 years.
He preached to my brothers and me, when we were 8 till 14 years old. Not only once, but many times.
NEVER EVER TRUST AN ARAB!
As I see it, The MUSLIM lives in a make believe world and two cents speeches that are written by his office mean nothing to us. He thinks his legacy will live forever. wrong you MUSLIM lover pervert that allows men into children bathrooms with no worries. You have been the biggest disgrace than any other president, even tricky DICK. So, jump on the pontoon heading towards the middle east where you belong. Bend over because someone there would love to stick something in the MUSLIM ass. And take James Brown your wife along with you. And with the CRIMINAL Clinton and her cartel should jump on just for good measures. Because, senator Sessions is in the horizon looking at you and your pervert husband Billy Boy….
News Flash:
General Mattis supports social experiments in the military.
Specifically, the social experiment of deploying the National Guard to disperse whiny snowflake anti-Trump demonstrations and violent BLM riots.
OBAMA IS PROBABLE AFFRAID “M.D.” IS GOING TO SHOOT UP HIS MUSLIM BUDDIES.
????????
Obama should be stoned or crucified and then totally liquidated.
COME ON!
For Obama and his administration to send 130 tons of natural uranium to Iran, he better be scared….after the Iran Deal, his support of ISIS, giving Iran over $160 billion and releasing top terrorist, he better be a little nervous…smh!
ANY ONE WITH A BACKBONE WOULD CONCERN OBAMA THE BEST EXAMPLE OF COWARDICE. PRAISE THE LORD FOR A MAN LIKE THE GENERAL
Everything gives Obama chills.
Obama is not stupid. He is brilliant. He was carefully chosen for POTUS in order to begin destroying the U.S.A (from within).. He has almost succeeded with his nefarious plot. (Thank GOD for Donald J.Trump and the LEGAL votes of the former Sleeping Giant).
The Biggest Question now is WHO put him in power in 2008 ??? A safe guess for one of his election committee members is George Soros .
Most, but not all, of the other committee members are probably foreigners…….Muslims maybe ???
OBAMA WAS CHOSEN BY SAUDI AND THE LEFTIST TO BE THE PRESIDENT OF THE U.S AND PLUS CHEATING TO BE ELECTED. THANK GOD HE GAVE ME WISDOM AND UNDERSTANDING NOT TO VOTE FOR THIS SISSY MUSLIM. .
When Mattis gets in the driver seat he needs to uphold his oath to protect the USA against enemies both foreign and domestic. Wait a minute I think I know why Obama is living in fear of that day. Could it be something to do with the highest treason possible in this country?
I THINK OBAMA IS MOVING IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA TO BE CLOSER TO ALL CELEBRITIES. CLOSE TO EPICENTER FOR EARTHQUAKES….
Mattis WILL DRAIN the swamp!!! So won’t Flynn. So won’t Kelly. THAT is why Obama and his cronies are so scared. Generals FOLLOW ORDERS. Love watching the snowflakes, cupcakes and fruitcakes quiver in fright.
Can’t wait until he deploys the National Guard on them.
Some one has to stop this BUNCH of BARBARIAN MUSLIM’S from obtianing the N – BOMB they want.
If those filthy jihaddis want to become martyrs and get to paradise, Mad Dog will be only too happy to oblige them.
After 8 years of leading from behind, it is kind of refreshing to see a no-nonsense guy like Gen Mattis take the reins. If Obama is frightened by “mad dogs” attitude, that is probably a good sign. History has shown us the world is a safer place when the US steps up and take a leadership role. I think a regime change is what the doctor ordered because force seems to be the only thing the bad guys respond to these days. My hope is that words will be enough to bring some back global civility!
If our Soldiers risk the live caching criminals to put them in prison and the president let them
go to kill more of our soldiers , I call that Treason.
If our Soldiers risk the live caching criminals to put them in prison and the president let them
go free to kill more of our soldiers , I call that Treason.

keep strong 3%
Hello,
Everyone who reads things on this site, please go out and buy something from LL Bean.
I was watching the news yesterday and because the CEO of LL Bean made a donation to the Trump campaign the Liberals are trying to start a boycott of LL Bean.
Please forward this email to all of your Friends and ask them to support LL Bean and to also forward this email to their Friends.
Also if you know of any other companies that the Liberals are trying to boycott please support them also.
Trump supporters need to start of a boycott of the celebrity Hillary supporters of companies like Old Navy and others who hire people like Amy Shumer to do TV commercials for their companies.
Some Democrats are the lowest form of life. I do not remember hearing of any sort of boycott the last 8 years by Republicans when Obama was elected
I am so looking forward to January 20. Another great Trump pick.
I would love to see Iran just try to threaten another one of our warships when Mattis is on the job. Iran knows they can get away with the behavior with that gutless coward Obama.
Whoever mentioned Sheriff Joe Arpaio, Trump need to make a position for him on the border.
Nothing better than a real General in change of things, not like the wimp OBUMMER
If he truly terrifies Obama, then that is a point in his favor.
I am so proud of our military. I believe they have been in a straight jacket for 8 years . I have never been in the military but my grand father was on the USS Utah (0nly one to escape Pearl)
Dad was a officer on the Merchant Marine Ship USS united States, and was on a mine sweeper in Korea, Grandma was a Lieutenant in the Navy as well. Dad went on to be a Sub Engineer for Electric Boat & General Dynamics under Admiral Rickover , At these times our military was feared. Men were men and women had courage. We need that back instead of a bunch of sissy mary’s in our goverment. God Speed Donald!!
Our military still has courage! It is O that has no courage, no patriotism! No one in history has ever sent strategic material to it’s enemies like O has done with uranium. After all Islam has declared war, jihad, against us and Europe and other places. We have not declared war on them nor should we. If we declared war on islam Mecca would be a target to level. Like the WTC, and they could not do a thing about it if we leveled it.
Jonny O you have said the truth GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS and I am proud of you.
frankly obama’s negligence in the middle east is more frightening than MAD DOG! Step aside obama let a real man show you how to handle muslim anti american terrorists! Obama was always a weakling pitiful leader.
Obama was scared of Putin, Netanyahu, and who knows how many he-men? He couldn’t look at either Putin or Netanyahu in the eye. He could look at Hollande of France and UN & EU types.
I agree with all of you.
It is time of big changes, not those, which promised Obama.
America would be clean from political correctness and all other garbage.
January 20, 2017 is turning point for America.
God Bless America.
Obama is leaving…PRAISE GOD…and I will be eating popcorn while I’m watching!!!!
obummer is dead in the water and he knows it! He’s a has been that never was and it is killing him and his snowflakes! And they have tried, lied, murdered and done every trick in the book! But the American people are not being fooled any longer by the lies, deception and failure of obummer! You won’t be anything but a bad memory and not muck of one at that!! Bye! Bye! obummer just get lost!
This poor excuse for a man is leaving in 8 days. He will rend havoc upon us with his exit. He must be recalled to face impeachment and trial for High Crimes and Misdemeanors. any male with a neck and wrists the size and composition of a bag of Frito chips is a no man. Early in his life somebody should have given him a schoolboy ass kicking. He would have developed a sense of reality which if he had any he destroyed with all the weed and Blow he used. I say fully investigate his background from Indonesia through his entry in to politics with the Daley machine and his buddy Ayers. If found not to be a legal citizen, the democrat party and some leading dems on the know must also be investigated. All shall lose any privileges and benefits due the office of which they served. If we are lucky, his smoking will take away our wait for his demise in to the abyss of dark history.
I served 38 years with four combat tours and never mistrusted our leadership, not even Klintong was any concern. LBJ was another POS but Ronald Reagan was the epitome of both a leader and one that a soldier could trust with his life.
i STARTED TO SERVE MY FELLOW COUNTRY PEOPLE AT AT THE AGE OF 16 IN THE SECOND WORLD WAR AS A CIVIL DEFENCE AIR RAID MESSIINGER RIDING MY BIKE EARLY IN 1943 IN ADDITION TO BEING A FIRE AID IN OUR FIRE RESCUE DEPARTMENT RESPONDING TO MANY CALLS WHEN A GOOD NUMBER OF OUR VOLUNTEERS WHERE IN THE SERVICE OR AT THE ONE OF THE TWO AIR PLANE MANUFACTURING PLANTS ON LONG ISLAND i SIGNED UP IN THE 42 RAINBOW DIVISION NATIONAL GUARD U S ARMY AT THE AGE OF 20 AND SERVED 7 YEARS AND HAVE SERVED MY FELLOW CITIZENS AS A ACTIVE VOLUNTEER FIRE AND MEDICAL RESPONDER FOR 70 YEARS THE ONLY REASON THAT I LIST THIS IS THAT OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE NOT VOLUNTEER OR BEEN IN THE MILITIARY ,POLICE OR I OTHER SERVANT POSITIONS OR BEEN ACTIVE WITH EVERY DAY WORKERS TO SUPPORT A FAMILY HAVE NOT HAD THE EXPERIENCE THAT MANY OF OUR ELECTED PEOPLE NEEDED TO MAKE THE PROPER DECISIONS FOR THE PEOPLE THEY SERVE GOD BLESS TRUMP AND GIVE HIM GOOD HEALTH HE UNDERSTANDS OUR NEEDS AND ALL SHOULD SUPPORT HIM
Well after reading all of these comments, not much left for me to say you all have made it well known how you love this country the red white and blue. That makes me proud, the two comments that I saw I am sure they don’t have a clue as to what it feels like to have completed a mission with a squad or even a company of soldiers’ and to know that someone did not come back to sleep in his cot. But then go right back and do again, it’s called PATRIOTISM .USA. The one I read I think from Will we don’t need to start our war here, I fought with a lot of colored buddies that loved this country as much as I do. However the one that said we all need to let off some steam they are right, but at the end of the day we need to remember who we are and lead by example. I agree Trump is and was my choice from the beginning, his selection of cabinet is on the money. I would serve with you folks again, God Bless You for having the guts to speak your mind going fourth, good luck stay strong in your faith in God and the leadership of President Trump and V. Pence and their cabinet choices.
i voted strongly for Ronald Regan and also talked to him on the phone when he ran, and never voted for a Democrat or Republican until Trump and has been with him ever since he came out he has shown everyone that he is a leader ever since the first time he anounced and will support him in all hos appoints until he shows me different if he keeps doing what he is doing now he could be as great or better than Ronald Regan which is not shoes to fill but hipboots and mister Reagan was one of the greatest presidents we ever had as far as im conserned.
A Chihuahua would scare the Marxist Muslim Mutt
We the People of the United States of America need to keep the pedal to the metal & our foot on the necks of Progressive Left Socialist Marxist Commie Liberals who are anti-American. Like Streep, Sarandon, Robert De-Tardo, Moore, Perez, O’Donnell, Behar, Goldberg, etc. Regardless if Republicans won with 77,000 votes or by One vote they won the race. And the anti-American anti-Patriotic parasites in Hollywood, New York, & Chicago have nothing to say or do to change that fact. Liberals can dish it out, but can’t take it. Keep hammering them with emails, tweets, FB, Snapchat, etc. on a daily basis.
Let’s just hope that the Sha bacck a brock administration represented the
APEX of Satan’s plans for the destruction of this land, and the future holds
blue skys,
PETER, you are one the lowest forms of life on this earth,you say your patriotic,well your not,if all you can do is bad mouth our incoming PRESIDENT,you have never worn the uniform of any military service!!!!! if you did i’m almost sure you left with a dishonorable discharge!!!! in the military you learn to respect your leaders,you may not like them,but you respect the rank they hold, and to sit here and bad mouth our new chief and commander, you belong in prison right along with all the others that say they don’t respect or incoming PRESIDENT, if you don’t like TRUMP,i suggest you move to another country and try bad mouthing their leader and see where that gets you!!!!! other then that shut the “F” up,suck it up and drive on.BE the AMERICAN you say that you are!!!!!!! and help being the part of MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!
Well see if everyone still feels that way when this fool Mattis brings us to war…..
Guess you didn’t get the memo! Only Congress can declare war! While it takes a Democrat to lose one And a coward to lead from the rear! I rather, think you will not be fighting for us any way ,So go get a white flag and prepare to cry ! Did you wear out your play dough yet! Don’t forget how much France was helped by Jerk, War Hero John Heinz/Kerry when James Taylor { Another Liberal War Hero} Was singing ” You Got a Friend” Wasn’t that “nice” You Idiots lost the election go move to Cuba! You will Love it there! Try crying in the Streets , Which In the Workers Paradise will mean the Police in Castro Land Will make you feel right at home! try watching the real world from there on your Smart Phone which will track your every move! Have a nice life with your head buried where it is You will need lots of Vitamin D Sine thats a place the Sun Don’t Shine!
since [typo ,sorry, ] Just did not want you to fret too much!
Any 4 year old toddler would scare Obama
PLEASE Trump, make sure you are secure from all the evil threats/weapons from the liberals! We have no one as strong as you to take charge, should anything happen to you!! WE SUPPORT YOU!!!
By the way Peter, I am a veteran, and I SUPPORT Trump! I can’t think of one good thing Obama did for our country! He was all about “change”, we don’t need change, our constitution is just fine and beautifully written by our founding fathers.
Obama is afraid of his own shadow. He is the most unqualified, incompetent, deceptive, corrupt, compulsive liar that has ever held the office of the Presidency. He is a SHAME to America and has done nothing, in his 8 years in office but destroy the country. THANK GOD he will be GONE in a few days.
What really scares Bare Ass is Michelle! When she realizes she will not be able to go ti Europe or Hawaii with a hundred servants without paying for them herself! She will really be mad when she realizes Air Force One is not hers any more! SO Sad!edrrr
