I think the good General is off his meds.

Or should be put on meds.

The general knows a lot less than he knows -- and he knows it -- but to no avail. He can't come up with plausible outcomes in the future or even facts about Saddam's past regime. So why is he being interview except to voice an opinion that he can't really argue about.

One of the worst points is making nice with our allies -- but if they were our allies wouldn't they already be helping us out in Iraq. Basically, he wants the US to suck up to Europe. As well, old school detente thinking with Iranian fanatics don't help.

Hewitt had a lot of fun on this one and the general wanted to go home or appear on the Larry King show where he'd be asked, "What is up with the Nicole Smith thing anyway? We haven't much time, but what do you think?"

I understand what he is saying regard to internal Iraqi deaths. But I think we need to stay for geo-strategic-political implication's, even if only a 2 division sized blended force.

I'm starting to hate Hugh Hewit. With all these people he has been interviewing lately, my faith in the country is falling apart rapidly.

WO: I don’t know. I’m prepared to accept whatever it looks like, if it’s not killing Americans, and we’re not losing U.S. resources, because eventually, it will settle out out there, and our capacity to help it settle out earlier with allies will be greatly improved.

And there you have it...the inherent racism of the Left...as long it is just brown skinned people dying and not Americans it doesn't really matter how many hundreds of thousands or even millions of them die. The left are liars...they don't really care about human life...every argument they make proves they don't.

During his career in 'military intelligence', the good general was involved in, among other things, the Stargate remote viewing project. If you believe guys 'coordinating' on couches constitutes a credible intelligence capability, you can believe this guy.

...we are the cause that that situation exists today.

Before that statement he just sounded stupid and callous. He's a Copperhead.

When you look up "blithering idiot" in the dictionary, you see this general's picture.

I regret few things more than that Hugh Hewitt is a conservative voice. He makes my skin crawl with his “look how many words I can say before I have to draw breath”, Harvarditis, terrier attitude. God, I wish he were a liberal so he would leave the airwaves. The only reason I tune in his show is because his guests are great. Hewitt himself is a colossal ignoramus. I mean, does anyone know less about literature and movies? Yet he pontificates on both from a perch of absolute ignorance. It makes for some really horrible radio on a daily basis.
