This is no way to fight a war.

Wish we could resurrect General Patton.

The closest we have to Gen Patton is Gen Mattis, now Commander of Central Command. The only problem is: Patton had a supportive President and Congress. That makes the difference. Here is a quote from him that got him in trouble:

"You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn't wear a veil. You know, guys like that ain't got no manhood left anyway. So it's a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them. Actually, it's a lot of fun to fight. You know, it's a hell of a hoot. It's fun to shoot some people. I'll be right upfront with you, I like brawling."
