Gates stood by and allowed our men and women to fight a war that their own CIC didn’t believe they could win. He should have publicly resigned in protest. To me he’s no difference than that a-hole McNamara.

You are right...but what would you suggest that he should have done?
He apparently decided he could do more for our troops by staying in position than resigning in protest.

Gates also said that Obama's one point of passion was for the gays in the military. He has outed Obama if you read between the lines (which is exactly how his book was intended).
