I read that on CNN. Horrible. If you're going to be a dick in private, that's one thing. But to answer questions that way in a forum that you know will be widely reported, that's just silly.

Basically, even though we anticipated huge amounts of urban combat, we failed to properly equip the troops. His answer, it's not money, just time. Why wasn't uparmouring part of the initial plan?

As for stop-loss, basically he said sorry, suck it up and press on. Everyone in the military knows and understands that, but to have someone in the DoD leadership state it so blatantly in a public forum is sad.

Still baffles me why people, especially those in the military, believe that a Republican Administration in general equals good times for the military. Yeah, not so much.
