Look, let’s say this up front… Jim Webb is a blinking squint of an idiot.
here we have a Democrat, trying to do the bidding of this party, by not supporting the troops in the field of battle. You’d think a Vietnam veteran would know better. Not this idiot. And how does he come to the conclusion see does? It certainly not by way of facts.
“This is one thing I really take objection to — may I speak? — is politicians who try to put their political views into the mouths of soldiers,” Webb said over his opponent’s interruptions. He placed his hand briefly on Graham’s back, then jerked his thumb in the Republican’s direction.
“Have you been to Iraq?” Graham demanded.
“I’ve covered two wars as a correspondent,” Webb said. “I have been to Afghanistan as a journalist.”
Graham: “Have you been to Iraq and talked to the soldiers?”
Webb: “You know, you’ve never been to Iraq, Lindsey.”
The Republican pointed out he’s been there seven times.
“You know,” Webb said dismissively, “you can see the dog and pony shows. That’s what congressman do.
So, when faced with the fact that Gramm had been there, had spoken with the troops, and new far more than Webb did, Webb dismissed the whole thing as irrelevant.
The people who want us to leave Iraq before the job’s done, simply do not know what they are talking about… and Webb is but one demonstration of that lack.
