Do the Joint Chiefs have the authority to remove Rush from AFN?



And if you say "Yes, of course", doesn't that mean the President could do it tomorrow?

When I posted this yesterday:

the most common criticism, aside from "you're an arrogant ass" (tell me something I don't know ), was that Rush is NOT good for troop morale because he undermines the COMMANDER in Chief.

I mean, things like this in the news:

are becoming less and less rare. Seems to me that someone needs to step up to the plate and set a tone.

than worry about AFN Radio and what is playing.

Should Rush be on AFN, nope, his hate should be banned

you can see how it might appear that the JCS approves of Rush's views.
