6. Goddam .... generals are too fuggin honest ... the host - an asshole- asks |
|
a question and the generals answer it.
There's no spin from this guy. He tried a little nuance, but his heart wasn't in it. He never went anywhere near hyperbole.
Totally believable.

Partaphrase: "I resigned my commission so I could be free to tell this story".
You KNOW he's not speaking for just himself and a few other 'malcontents'. This shit is DEEP in the Pentagon.

11. The General is showing admirable restraint. |
|
I could be a lot less charitable. "Arogant" would be much too polite for me.
