Spec Ops Takes Aim at Obama...Metaphorically that is


The Special Forces group Special Operations OpSec Education Fund is voicing its opinions about how President Obama has handled the American military in his time in office. The verdict?

Badly. 

The stated purpose of this organization is to protect the safety and operational security (OpSec) of America's men in uniform; and to combat the use of leaks and sensitive information for political gain. 

As Virginia is home to not one but four of the Nation's largest and most important military sites (The Pentagon, Langley, Oceana Naval Base, and Quantico), these issues are very close to home for us in the Commonwealth.

The group has come out with their own 22-minute video about the mishandling of military leaks, the killing of Osama Bin Laden, as well as other incidents. They also plan to air advertisements exposing the Obama Administration's bungling of these leaks over his term.

The former soldiers and intelligence specialists at the organization have criticized the Administration for using leaks to promote himself and his policies, for badly handling the Bin Laden apprehension to make himself look better, and even for disclosing sensitive details of the Bin Laden raid to Hollywood filmmakers. This isn't the kind of self-serving, careless attitude toward national security needed in a Commander-in-Chief.
