Politicization Of The Military

While traveling during the past few days, I saw that Josh Marshall has been posting about this issue; this link provides some context.

It's difficult to overstate how serious this is. For some time, President Bush has used captive military audiences as backdrops for speeches in which he disparages or attempts to discredit political opponents, particularly in terms of Iraq and foreign policy. But RNC use of uniformed servicemen at smaller, purely political events appears to have started. I trust readers of this space realize how insidious and dangerous this is, so a long post replete with tragic examples from history isn't necessary.

This is something that must be monitored aggressively, and stopped before it goes any further.
