A MUST SEE ~ Armed Services Committee Hearing
I URGE you all to watch this hearing on cspan-2. Lawerence Korb, the ever weak and wobbly former Reagan’s DOD official (I don’t know how he could be the same then as he is now and measure up to Reagan’s strength of character), AND Gen. Jack Keane (ret.) in hearing.
Keane was magnificent!! Gen. Keane is hitting it out of the park .. Korb said we pulled troops out of Viet Nam to preserve the military, and Keane was unabashed in his contempt for those remarks and that opinion.
Keane is praising the courage, command structure, morale and re-enlistment (in huge numbers) of this military, and God bless him! He said it’s horrible to say this war is lost, as if the troops over there don’t know the opinions here.
Duncan Hunter has been marvelous as well!
Senate Democrats do not want to fund the Military, damn I destest the left! Democrats are still grabbing at straws not to fund the Military, the buck stops here, our Military has to be financed and they are winning on the ground, too bad Democrats.
CLICK HERE to go tro C-Span ……..and if you go to where it says the words I have put below next just click on the words at C-Span. It is well worth it.

A MUST SEE ~ Armed Services Committee Hearing
Keane is an officer who is more interested in his command than his political career, a rare trait, I always look at the past for examples. Ramsey Clark, Clark Clifford and Colin Powell are the worms in that barrel of apples, weak indecisive or passive leaders who like Kerry visited the battlefield to get their political tickets punched. I don’t want any of our troops serving an officer who puts the UN before the United States.
OH Jack I agree, and it is hard to find that. So many do put the UN first.
Sounds like you’ve done a good job of fooling yourself.
