So a few Congressmen have been talking to some Generals about resigning?

With the latest comments by the Colorado Congressman, Doug Lamborn (R), a lot of questions have been raised.

Who were the generals that he and his friends "talked to"?

Do not these generals have a duty to come forth if they have been asked to question or to betray their CIC?

Or did Lamborn and his friends talk to any generals at all? Is it all just a lie?

His statements were not intended to be factual. So, see, it wasn't a lie. At least, not in the classic sense of the word. See?
