Patton and MacArthur didn't resign. They kept their rank. And at the end, they were leading the way.

I love it when someone thinks they have hit a homerun and it ends up being a fizzle: like this argument:

Actually, both were considered failures and both “fired” along the way and both never achieved the ultimate rank they should have as a result. However, both did recover from being “fired” and both went on to be big time leaders in the end and both ended up being exonerated for the most part by history. Frankly, both were fired because folks above them were intimidated by both men’s abilities and both men’s bluntness.

Which, when you think about, is exactly like Newt. You, um, made our argument for us.
