However, McCain forgot to mention the lesson about politicians not running a war from Washington, DC.
This is the MOST important lesson forgotten by almost EVERYONE. There's also a lesson about not letting the media define the war without severe fact checking. TET anyone? Walter Cronkite anyone? Sy Hirshman anyone?
BINGO!
Sadly, our guys are dying while our military is constrained by a bunch of spineless politicians who don't want to "offend" anyone. Oh, and many thanks to the MSM for their contribution.
