“The White House meanwhile acknowledged some members of Obama’s team have been reading “Lessons in Disaster,” a book about flawed decision-making in the Vietnam war.”
Ping to Flyer per our earlier conversations on another thread.
Likely they are reading this book to learn the lessons on how the democrats and the media turned Americans against the Vietnam war by not providing a clear strategy or support for our troops in the field. They want to repeat the process and get out with the ‘backing’ of the American people. They don’t care if they sacrifice our troops in the process. The idea is to get out with ‘political’ cover.
PURE EVIL!
Agreed. They're reading "Lessons in Disaster" as a refresher; they fully intend to repeat history to satisfy their lunatic pacifist donors.

Richard Holbrooke reviewed this book for the NY Times.

The book is centered around McGeorge Bundy (Kennedy and Johnson NSC head). Bundy was reflecting years later on the mistakes he made. Bottom line, “the doves were right”. They should have just thrown Vietnam to the wolves.
Hussein is going to piss away all the sacrifices that the US, British, Canadians etc. have made, and the only criteria will be the politics for him.

Thanks for the Ping. I've been gone all day but couldn't stop thinking about that other thread connecting the dots. THERE was your Ping when I got back. I am more scared for our troops under this Nimrod than ever! Is "Lessons in Disaster" their new tactical handbook? You're right. PURE EVIL!
One spot of hope, upper ranks are speaking out for our boots on the ground. Obama must be forced away from his childish Olympian type escapades and deal with this.
Your are right. PURE EVIL!
May God protect our Troops.
