OK, I do not disreagard his loyalty to this nation or his service. His intelligence I do have to question. He really needs to get a grip if he wants to call himself a "Republican".
I agree and after watching his press conference after that mess was signed and his subsequent interviews on TV, I've come to the conclusion that his entire effort was designed to promote his book and the TV movie. Yes, that's cynical, but if true, it's totally disgusting.
