FUN NEWS QUOTE!
"When we put [our enlisted men and women] in harm's way, it had better count for something, It can't be because some policy wonk back here has a brain fart of an idea of a strategy that isn't thought out."
-General Anthony Zinni |
Can you name the wonk being alluded to? Kind of like a really cool version of "Where's Waldo?!".
|
He's refering speciffically to Donald Rumsfled, calling him a policy wonk and calling his Iraq stratgey a Brain Fart.
|
Actually, although there are splinter groups creating havoc amidst the reconstruction, polls in favor of the effort towards reorganization (and those performing it) are up throughout the general population of Iraq.

I just like saying "Brain Fart" in a nationally televised interview.
|
I just happened to catch a local news segment on how the swearing on tv has increased dramatically. next thing you know we have a high ranked general saying wonk and fart on live television.

Early in the war, I was watching some CNN coverage (I think they were covering the 1st Inf Div) when, after an artillery shot, you could hear, as clearly as a bell, "Damn, nice fucking shot, sergeant!" I laughed my ass off. I think because it was early in the morning (It was just before I went to work) that they didn't really catch it for editing yet. < shrug >
