Tough audience. Would white phosphorus liven it up?
Did Gen John Allen (USMC) get up and apologize again? What a jackass — especially the way he pronounces “Qur’an” and “Afghanistan” with his ersatz Arabic and/or Dari accent.
No defense of his troops. Only a groveling apology. Note: I would argue that the Marines (at their top levels of leadership) — like their Navy brothers — are even more politically correct than the Army leaders these days.
If I am Gingrich, and I am elected, Gen Allen is retiring 10 minutes after I am sworn in, along with his limp-wristed, USMC commandant, Gen Jim Amos — and a host of other weak, compromised generals and admirals.
Okay, I’ll be wimpy, too.
