I think you guys are missing the point. Yingling is illustrating his argument via logical extension. A rhetorical exercise. I met him when in Korea and found him to be a decent guy. I recall his article from 2006 and it confirmed in me that he is a warrior who wants only what is best for the troops.

I concur that we are rapidly becoming a Preatorian guard. the profligate political class is feeding their corpulent body off the sweat and honor of the military class. About time the ticks started to row the freakin' boat.
