O’Reilly had Ralph Peters on last night and this was the subject. Absolutely disgusting as just when Peters was trying to explain that the Pentagon brass are weak (clueless) and the decisions about Iraq are made in the WH, Bill interrupted him. He asked if Peters thought Dempsey was weak and again he started to say Dempsey is a good guy but did not rise to his level in the military through - was cut off - but I think he was probably going to say “competence.”

Why in the devil do these guests even bother to accept invitations to go on these shows when most of the FOX hosts are not going to let them finish their answers? It’s just a waste of their time. O’Reilly acted as tho’ he didn’t even know Dempsey is OUT now!

Hussein is anything but clueless. He operates with different goals defined by his militant Moslem identity. His clues come from a different perspective and do not make sense unless one understands what it is a Moslem strives for. Once that assumption is made all the puzzle pieces interlock in proper and easily perceived order.

This is all I can find right now and it doesn’t show O’Reilly’s interruptions. I think it’s been touched up as I didn’t hear Peters get to finish his sentences.

The Factor asked Fox News analyst Lt. Col. Ralph Peters for his assessment of the administration’s strategy.
“The president has decided to take advice from his civilian advisers with no military experience,” Peters groused, “rather than from serious military planners. And the problem at the Pentagon is that there is weak leadership at the very top. General Martin Dempsey is a decent guy but he’s been promoted above his capabilities. He doesn’t have the strength of character or the vision to lead this fight. This is an absolutely screwed-up situation, you can not possibly defeat the Islamic State with these air strikes controlled by lawyers.””

“”O’Reilly acted as tho’ he didn’t even know Dempsey is OUT now!””

Listening to the news tonight, Dempsey is still referred to as Chairman the of Joint Chiefs of Staff. I thought he was GONE!
