I can comment on policies.

I can comment on officials outside of my chain of command.

UCMJ prohibits you from talking negatively about any member of your 
chain of command, the President being the commander in chief, the 
highest official in your chain of command.

I could talk smack on the wars, but I agree with them.  I can and do 
talk about my being ill at ease with certain surveillance programs, and 
with some cases of extraordinary rendition.

Not to mention you all know where I stand.  I see no reason to have to 
say the same things over again.  Although I guess thats what we 
basically do here.

I will say this much.  A young soldier had images on his myspace 
comparing the President to Hitler.  He had additionally blogged about 
truther issues, anti-war propaganda and other severe left wing 
(anarchocommunist) ideals.  He was prosecuted under UCMJ.  I'm glad he 
was.  He had uniform pictures on the account, OPSEC information about 
redeployment dates, and the location he was at, and things that demeaned 
  his mission and his unit.

Thats not me, would and could never be me.  I'd rather be safe than 
sorry.  I've had enough issues as a prior service enlistee getting back 
in, and I certainly don't need some agent or investigator plugging my 
info into google and having a reason to mess with my clearance, or 
contact my unit.
