I just saw this remark of yours: I like dignity and statesmanship and solemnity in public officials when they're talking about war...This isn't a game. Keep the pep talks for the huddle where people are in sync on the context; don't broadcast them to the world. Treating war like it's a game is disrespectful to our troops, IMO. That's the way I feel. His manifest excitement, and "appetite," is particularly disrespectful to the dead and maimed of our troops, and to their families, (not to mention the collaterally damaged innocents). Our leaders are supposed to have some dignity, imo, and when speaking in front of the world about war, to convey some decent respect for the solemnity of the enterprise.
