General McCaffrey on Meet The Press
He was interviewed by Tim Russert on Meet The Press yesterday. If you
missed the show, I strongly recommend that you
read the transcript.
As I insinuated in an earlier
post, General
McCaffrey's (ret.) assessment of the situation in the Middle East is
refreshingly devoid of political rhetoric or posturing. While he supports the
administration's objectives in the Middle East, he is openly critical of how
they've handled operations. He clearly understands what's at stake but doesn't
sugar coat things to appease neocons. Even if you don't agree with the positions
he takes, you have to respect someone of his caliber for his honesty. There's
no spin. He tells it like he sees it and doesn't pull any punches.
I dare the right wing pundits to even remotely question this man's patriotism.
