Something rubs me the wrong way about this entire presentation. First, referring to a major war that lasted almost a decade as an "engagement" is an insult to all who fought and died there. Secondly, "musings on Iraq" is equally offensive. It must be nice to now sit in a fancy office in D.C. and "muse" how we all screwed up so much.
