I think it's more that it must have been totally galling to turn on the tube and see Klintoon blaming the guys in the field for HIS failures.
Guys who risked their lives to get OBL in their sites, only to have the Sinkmeister be too busy with interns, and the political fallout therefrom, to answer the phone.
Even if I'd kept quiet for years, I do believe that would have made me start looking for ways to get the truth out.
Very good points. And you probably are right on the mark on this one, in retrospect. Hopefully lots more will come out to show what a useless clown he was 99% of his time in office.
