This subject is so much bigger than election squabbles.
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE DESERVE TO KNOW WHAT OUR SERVANTS HAVE DONE to these sailors. We need to know why they were used as pawns, why they were used as humiliating photo ops. We never made Abu Graib for our headlines. Those were made by and for a small group of bad men on our side. These humiliating photos were for the front pages and widespread dissemination by the Iranians.
And remember that scenes in Mogadishu during the Blackhawk Down incident gave Osama the motivation to attack us on our own soil because we were just a paper tiger. What will this kowtowing do to us in the future? How many innocent Americans will die because this emboldened our enemies?
Heads need to roll over this. We need to never stop firing questions about this. What the hell is going on? We need to march on DC with constitutions on sticks. This is OUR LAND and those were OUR SONS AND DAUGHTER on those boats.
Well, at least they all got out alive!
HST, you make a valid point — the pussification of America is in full view! LTC Peters got it right!
