THAT'S the opposite of his attitude. Are you really willing to pay several hundred billion a year for a military that gets its tush kicked?

Sheesh, next thing you know you'll be uttering the t-word.

I'm sure there are at least a half dozen of those logical fallacies in that statement of yours. <g>

Look, we all have different ideas of what is seemly and what isn't in different. Did you see the discussion a few weeks ago about what to wear to a funeral? I like dignity and statesmanship and solemnity in public officials when they're talking about war, not something that sounds like a pep talk from the coach. 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.

Write it off to taste.
