Let’s not staff a White House with generals ever again

True, but if true, we have another problem to complement the chief problem in the Whitehouse.

 

Sound advice - shame it wasn't heeded otherwise Iraq would be restored to a reasonably civilised country but just look at it now eh? Even if all these refugees in European countries wanted to return whence they came (which they don't!) they wouldn't be able to because there's nowhere for them to live. What an unholy mess - and as if it isn't bad enough now, the West is gonna have to pay to rebuild it all. Nobody seems to have thought about that!

Edit: Now that I'm thinking about it (rebuilding all the destroyed towns and cities in the region) I'm realising that it will bankrupt every western country.

 

We do know..Bush and Cheney marginalized anyone who didn't agree with the dual citizen neocons of the PNAC and Clean break strategy.. ... to include, the Arabs, Oil men, diplomats, historians, the French and Colin Powell.

 

Having opinion threads in the opinion forum is not dodging anything but keep polishing the turd of a thread.

 

Read that again i did nothing to you.

 

Strange by discussing it and pointing out the flaws you think i am evading it... As a quote from GoT says " You know nothing " TomFitz.

 

Perhaps you can find a way to let his dead son know this. You might find pieces of him along a road in the Helmand Province.

 

Ok, I misunderstood.

 

I will say it again in another manner.. People who spend their entire day ( not you) insulting people for some kind of moral superiority are actually vile human beings themselves.. I simply prefer not to stoop to their level. I see racists here justifying their racism by attacking anyone who doesnt agree with them as..... racist.. Switch the word with racism and bigotry and the same thing applies.

 

A few things about this.

One, hopefully SHS will realize the idiocy of her comments. We'll never know because she won't be honest.
Two, I'll bet Sean Spicer thanks God every day that he's out of there.
Three, how could she have said something so stupid when she works for the man who has a history of questioning Generals.

Thanks Jake Tapper for pointing out the blatant, flagrant, and unapologetic hypocrisy of this administration:

Are you asserting none of the people who worked for Clinton thought women were sacred?

 

Ahhhh. The attempt to kill GHW Bush was one of the several reasons listed for the removal of Saddam and of his government in the Iraq Liberation Act which made his removal and the replacement of his government the OFFICAL policy of the United States.

 

He actually said he had heard that Obama did not call. For me that's not enough to go out and comment, but the irony is that he's mostly right. Obama's favorite method of reaching out to the families of the dead was a form letter. A letter that was almost identical word-for-word regardless of who it was being sent to. Nothing that personally calls out the uniqueness of the dead soldier. Nothing that required any real effort. If you were a grieving parent, wouldn't that make you feel warm and fuzzy??

 

Bill Clinton didn't malign women in public.. Trump has 15 hours of trash talk on the Howard Stern recordings.

 

That's not true either, fizbo.. on many occasions Obama met the caskets and stayed several hours to meet with the families.

 

Impossible to get in and out cheap, unless you want the Iraq of today. We did nothing to protect their statues, artifacts and general history, which led to looting and the disintegration of their society as they knew it. We disbanded their army, saying it was no longer needed. Since the Iraqi soldiers were no longer getting a pay check to support their families and couldn't find jobs, they joined the Taliban and other assorted terrorist groups. Way to go, Rummy!

 

About Bush, he sounds like a saint compared to Trump, and should be praised for his position regarding Trump.

 

In today's political climate anyone who says something we don't like is a disgrace.

 

I said the form letter was his favorite method of communication -- not the only method. I've acknowledged in other posts that he attended casket ceremonies and visited the wounded at hospitals.

Nothing is absolute. We're talking about what's true most of the time. Unfortunately, the form letter represented most of Obama's communication reality.

So I ask again. Would Obama's generic form letter have made you feel warm and fuzzy as the parent of the dead?

 

He is only a disgrace to you because he does not suffer hysterical irrational severe TDS.

 

Kelly's job was to fix it and make Trump look good.. kinder, better.

Instead the both look like arrogant, insensitive liars and misogynists.

 

Kelly was in the room. You weren't yet you think you know everything and worse, you have nothing bad to say about the congress critter that made this political.
