I've enjoyed your posts in the past so I won't give this quite the treatment it deserves. Here's the oath I swore when I became a third generation member of the United States Army:
"I do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God."
First line, defend the constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. I'm no longer in the Army but I never unswore that oath. And if the greatest threat to the Constitution is actually the sitting president, it puts our country in a tough position. What to do? Would such a course of action be arrived at through emotion?

So you should be really concerned about an attempted coup of a duly elected president, right? And it must have been a long 8 years under Obama, who couldn't go a week without violating established powers or inventing new ones.
