There is Something Seriously Wrong With This

From the Booman Tribune:

Who elected the American Enterprise Institute anyway?”

because, in essence – it is these warmongering fearmongering lunatics, many of whom never served in the military who are not only dictating our disastrous foreign policy, but are making the decisions against the advice of our own military generals to send our own citizens off to kill and die. I'll say it a little differently:

A tax-exempt organization (which by proxy since it pays no tax is supported by us taxpayers), very few, if any of whose members have military service is behind the decision to send more troops into harm’s way, despite the fact that they were not elected, are not part of the administration or the military structure, are doing so against the advice and will of the electorate and our military.

Clearly this is not any part of a government “of the people, by the people and for the people”. We know that the primary author of this horrific idea is Frederick Kagan who has most certainly NOT served in the military, and (while it may be so), I have been unable to even find any reference of his even visiting Iraq or talking to the Joint Chiefs of Staff about the true situation on the ground.

What is truly amazing is that this man was the author of a document that was so overly simplistic and unfounded in reality that there isn’t an overwhelming cry of “Bullshit!!!”
