This is nothing but smoke and mirrors.
The last sentence of Starnes' article:

“The Soldier is not, and never has been, “facing retribution and punishment from the military for having anti-Obama bumper stickers on his car, reading books written by conservative authors like Mark Levin and David Limbaugh, and serving Chick-fil-A sandwiches at his promotion party,” the spokesperson added.

Much ado about nothing at all. There was no punishment, no retribution, nothing.

Interesting. I too have always felt that name-calling is the very foundation of disagreement. It is the rock upon which the sturdiest of arguments is built.

Pooping is also the foundation of needs but I wouldn't say morality is built on top of it. Of course we all need to keep pooping but for other needs we can evolve.

But if calling names is the same as pooping, I'll go with it.

Lawyers are good at writing loopholes. If the Sgt takes the Article 15 he is free to upload us a copy then we can diagram the sentences and pick apart the meanings.

I can spin all of those statements and in fact I am prepared to say they are literally true.

Remember, they didn't make that statement in order to fit the LOR. They will write the LOR to fit the statement.
