I see you managed to get the concern trolls in full "concern mode". Good job.

If you and they were as active in doing something positive instead of trying to sow dissent on our side, like maybe

Donate to FR

we could do great things.

As it is, there are so many "purists" that will jump the shark at every opportunity that Trump will have an even steeper uphill battle.

Thankfully, he's much more the adult man than all the concern trolls.

No wonder the Dems keep managing to thwart us - we actively help them and call the act "principled"....

I do have a clue as to who Anne Patterson is. I used to work for her.

She is intelligent. She is not reckless. Thinking it through, the actions of her ambassadorship in Egypt doesn't square with her previous work (Colombia, El Salvador); which by all accounts were hugely successful. It smacks of micro-management. I have serious doubts she formed the policy.

But she is a party person, a long-time Clinton ally. And I too, question why Mattis chose her. Unless........slick Mad Dog took the most accomplished democrat career diplomat out of circulation at State, and chained her next to him..........just a thought.

Bullcrap. Mattis is no God. He talks tough but reality is that he prosecuted the Marines in haditha who fought the way he talks.
He has openly supported a Palestinian state. He supports overthrowing Assad. And now he nominates this woman who worked very hard to create and support the moslem brotherhood riots in Egypt.
Mattis might be ok in the field, but as a national policymakers, he’s just another neocon.

“purist” is the sign of an establishment lackey.

Anne Patterson is a terrible pick for the Pentagon.
She not only had a hand in the Muslim Brotherhood coming to power in Egypt, she had a hand in Benghazi.
