TB,
When Michael Wolff and his buddies gather for cocktails at the end of the day, I imagine that the first remark is something like, "Can you believe they sent that house n****r out to brief us again? Don’t they realize how self important we are? We deserve to be briefed by at least a three star"

The mean-spirited, arrogant, condescending, liberal presstitutes can't stand success by individuals that they have not anointed.

General officers are often political choices. Many times there are well qualified officers that are not from the West Point alumni up for general slots. They are sometimes passed over for a West Point Alumni. Sometimes the selection process can come right up and slap you in the face.

This is true, up to a point. I'm career military and have seen guys get better orders, etc based on who their golf partners are and not their combat ability, BUT a person does not make flag rank AND get command of a combat formation if they don't pack the gear to perform.

They don't think he is senior enough to serve them?

Rummy should promote him to Major General for having to deal with these press idiots, then they would be "getting briefed by someone more senior".

And we should do something about it. Instead it's always standard to let this kind of thing go by. General Brooks is a distinguished gentleman and Michael Wolf isn't good enough to stand beside the good General.

Reminds me of the time where we invited friends and family months in advance to invite whomever they wanted to a "fictious dinner"...the list was interesting.

My choice now would include General Brooks as the distinguished guest in a place of honor.

My other choice would be to invite Michael Wolf too...his place at the table? NONE...Michael's job would be to serve General Brooks first and when dinner was over Michael could do all dirty clean up which includes taking out the slop while we all adjourned to the living room for coffee.

I think that's an appropriate job for someone with so little respect for others not to mention Michael's lack of class.

How interesting. I never paid attention that he was "black." To me he was a wonderful AMERICAN soldier, that made us proud. He's been doing a fabulous job.

Absolutely! I'll second your post.

Gen. Brooks is the guy who'd lead you through the brick wall, not expect you to go through it for him. Just my professional opinion.
