Shouldn’t she have addressed him as “Comrade Gates”?

Didn't the man who is currently the Secretary of State accuse our troops of murdering and raping and acting like terrorists just a few years ago? From his seat in the United States Senate? That's after doing so repeatedly when he was a young man.
Was Judy Woodruff concerned about the effect those words had on the morale of the troops back then? I can't remember.

No, that hurts American morale.

There is just no sense at all in repeating the obvious hypocrisy of these people. Utterly disgusting. Protect the (D)Emperor, at all costs.
Like these people give two craps about "troop morale". How about asking Ambassador Stevens about his morale?
Oh,....

too late ! Their C&C has already seriously affected troops morale . Gates is merely explaining WHY they are already so non plussed with Obama . Only the most career oriented sycophants seem to have a good feeling towards him .
To: Kaslin
Miserable no good communist ****.
I hope there is a special place in Hell reserved for traitorous American media scum.
Hey Judy, any chance you thought to ask Harry Reid about troop morale when he said the war was lost? Didn’t think so.
Go to Hell Judy Woodruff.

Just took a peek into the PBS NewsHour telecasts archive from 2003 when ol’ Bush was in Washington and you’d think troop morale was a concept that only Neanderthals were concerned with. John “Silky Pony” Edwards discussing troop deployments as if he knew anything whatever about the military and everybody sitting like schoolgirls in an adoration circle around him lest a single droplet of divine wisdom fail to be captured and recorded is the stuff of both laughter and nightmares.

Oh yeah, stealing money from them and their families doesn’t affect morale.

Well, Judy, it would be hard for me to lower the regard in which the troops already hold the current administration and thus lower their morale by stating publicly what has been for some time generally acknowledged within the military. If anything, a public airing of the disaster that this administration has been in international and military affairs may relieve somewhat the military’s dismay and frustration — that the general public is unaware of their plight.
To: Kaslin
Don’t talk to hostile media. They will only twist your words and ambush you.

Judy, didn't you worry that the MSM keeping a daily body count on the screen during the Bush administration might hurt troop morale?
