"taking Rumsfeld's (inexperienced) advice over Powell's (knowledgeable advice), etc"

Donald Rumsfeld was in positions of military importance when General Powel was thinking of joining. Did you have any valid points?

"when we were saying the war was being hugely mismanaged and that our youth were dying in outrageous numbers because of this incompetence, we were called traitors by so may folks on the right."

I was curious, and so searched out all of the posts in which I used the term "traitor" I left out a few that were not relevant. It seems that I was mostly quoting you. Maybe it is time you stopped chasing shadows.
