That's why I'd almost end his career over this...he's over the line and should not have given any commentary on the subject. Since you can't trust the press with a simple quote, I might go easy this time, but certainly be looking for his replacement.
Indeed...if he's going to make such POLITICAL commentary while still wearing the uniform, he needs to join the long line of those who were 86'd by the Klintoons for saying a lot less.
WOW...you are tough.
Have Abizaid lose his career over that one remark??
