Weak sister politicians and bureaucrats (Yes,Mattis and his cute sayings go in the pile too.) should be flogged and publicly disgraced.
Sorry for the rant on Christmas but after spending two years of my youth chasing gooks all over S.E. Asia it makes me sick to my stomach to see what our military has devolved into and we're still 0-5 since WW2.
