(81,265 posts)Glad you're here! This bastard makes me boil! Arrogant schmuck! I saw that documentary about him - "The Unknown Knowns." NEVER have I heard such pretzel logic. Such convoluted gobbledygook. He can sure talk a polluted ocean-full. No wonder so many have been swayed. You get lost in the wild, roaming, twisty-turny wording that takes you absolutely nowhere. But it's a lot of fancy-sounding phrases and allegedly-profound NONSENSE. He could have been the Jabberwock. The chapter in "Alice in Wonderland" could have been "rummywocky." Schmuck.
Ironically, he's one of the very few in that den of PNAC iniquity who actually, astoundingly, DID wear his country's uniform. He actually did serve. HOWEVER, that was - for him - luckily-timed. He served in the military conveniently BETWEEN wars. I think it was between Korea and Vietnam that his tour of duty was. So yeah, he served, but he never saw combat. Never put his ass in harm's way. Never got his hands dirty. How nice for him. So he still never understood what war is. Never lost any comrades in the foxhole or the tank, never got shot at. Never faced what he sent thousands of our boys and girls, our sons and daughters, our most precious treasures, over to that hell hole to face. So he's still as much of a candy-ass and a fop and a pussy and a chickenhawk as any of 'em, in my opinion.
Pardon my coarse language. But considering the subject, I think he's earned it. AND worse!
