General Sanchez? -- Or General SIN-chez?

by: BranfordBoy

Sat Oct 13, 2007 at 09:44:06 AM EDT


Well, it looks like we have another phoney soldier on our hands.

Lt. Gen. Ricardo S. Sanchez, who retired in 2006 after being replaced in Iraq after the Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse scandal, blamed the Bush administration for a "catastrophically flawed, unrealistically optimistic war plan" and denounced the current addition of American forces as a "desperate" move that would not achieve long-term stability.

"After more than four years of fighting, America continues its desperate struggle in Iraq without any concerted effort to devise a strategy that will achieve victory in that war-torn country or in the greater conflict against extremism," General Sanchez said at a gathering of military reporters and editors in Arlington, Va.

It will be amusing to see how the Limbaughs, Coulters, Malkins, and Foxies of the world spin this one.

The Times' feeble effort -- to imply that Sanchez was responsible for Abu Ghraib and was somehow punished for it by being replaced -- is bush league (no pun intended) compared to what the real pros are capable of.

I was trying to think of a good play on either Sanchez or Ricardo, but I was stumped. (Closest I came was "Retard-o").

Well done.


he's just a (0.00 / 0)
phony soldier.

Just ask that guy they have on US Armed Forces Radio.

The question is not what you are, we already determined that, we are now negotiating price.
