Excerpt: “This latest anti-Constitutional outrage comes to us from Cannon Air Force Base (AFB), host to the USAF’s 27th Special Operations Wing (SOW), which lies on the outskirts of Clovis in my home state of New Mexico near the border with west Texas. Hold on to your seats, folks, because this situation is “explosive” in the figurative sense of cluster bombs peppering the landscape – where you discover one, you can be sure that dozens (possibly hundreds) of others lie in close range. As far as the combustible mix of unlawful fundamentalist Christian proselytizing and secular military duty is concerned, the USAF is an absolute and abominable minefield – and this latest so-called “Gospel Explosion” at Cannon AFB is a putrid, and sadly typical, example of command leadership streaking haphazardly right through that minefield.
