Tame Dog Mattis was a terrible Secretary of Defense. He seemed to confuse his position and think he was Secretary of State directing foreign policy. Man up, Tame Dog, and stop griping about falling out of disfavor with your boss.

[The Unknown Republican]

Mattis has time and again shown extremely poor judgment. Theranos for example. Now this.

I don’t understand the nickname. To my thinking, someone who breaks the rules and risks serious punishment, including imprisonment, for his men might deserve the tag. That’s what Col. Allen West did when he fired a pistol next to an insurgent’s head to get him to talk. All Mattis ever did was get a bunch of his people killed by enforcing politically-correct rules of engagement, and talking crap that he lacked the moral courage to follow through on.
