Deep Thought Stolen from BooMan

Stolen because I don’t really have any deep thoughts of my own — Steven D

Generals are not the War Heroes which some sycophantic fools like to portray them as on the Nightly News. Generals are the people who get to tell real war heroes where they must go to die. Or have their brains pulped, limbs detached, et cetera. And then, after they retire, Generals get to write their memoirs blaming everyone else for what went wrong on their watch, and how honorable they were because they simply followed the bad orders of their civilian superiors, even if that required them to violate the Geneva conventions regarding torture.
