Spent most of one of summer's last days listening to two intelligent and capable men get grilled by the biggest bunch of incompetents--our congressmen and women. It's a testament to General Petraeus and Ambassador Crocker that they kept their cool when confronted by one arrogant incompetent after another.
Before they even began, Congressman Skelton spewed his long-winded introduction telling them they were wasting their time. His mind was already made up. That stuff continued all afternoon from every democrat up there--impugning their honesty and smugly talking about lack of progress. That's the same congress whose ratings are lower, even, than the President's. That's the same congress who can't pass anything. That's the same congress demanding quick action who can't secure the borders here in more time than we've been at war in Iraq. Their sanctimoniousness makes me sick!
Just as in VietNam, when Congress started running the war, we were doomed. Now they're at it again.
