So, if soliders had spoken out about President Clinton's behavior then that would have been perfectly acceptable, I assume?

Don't you DARE question the englightened leadership of the Commander in Chimp! We're liberating oil, here!! I mean - uh - people. Liberating people!

1. Under the UCMJ

they do have a point...

Most people do not understand this little factoid, Soldiers
DO NOT really enjoy First Ammendment Rights

This means they have NO RIGHT to critize the policies of ANY
CiC

Yep it is sumarized in that wonderful poem

"our is to do or die
not to question why."

Truly the only time soldiers have a right to take a political
videw is when they vote, as US Citizens and I suspect that the
military vote is more than just in play now.

2. Yes

they are not to question policy. There is a group of "concerned wives" at Ft. Bragg that have expressed a dislike or concern but they don't give out their names, even when giving interviews.
