Very interesting OPINION of yours - not agreed with by many on the thread (as to his being helpful to Middle East policy)...
Yes, his service is admirable - I happen to come from a military background (service - 29+ yrs) but that doesn’t mean the guy can’t be a twit, wrong-headed, mis-guided and part of the problem in this highly problematic admin...
Service to country doesn’t mean a free pass on lousy foreign policy...and speeches... Don’t get me going on Joe Sestak....

I never said that. I could give you a few examples of people who served in the military their whole lives who are/were idiots (Wesley Clarke, John Murtha). However, it is for concrete reasons that I can give you on these two. I'm ashamed to admit that John Murtha was a fellow Marine.

Can anyone here name me one statement or act that General Jones has done that is against this countries interests? Other than trying to read something into a stupid joke that was never intended? Don't you see the mental loops people on this thread are going through to try to rip on General Jones and by extension (in their minds at least) rip on Obama? In the process, they are casting aspersions on a good man. What is a man but the sum of his deeds? I merely pointed out the sum of his deeds to everyone, that's all.
