How do you know he isn't asking the important questions?
Copper, you and I come from vastly different backgrounds. My background, to include some of my assignments and clearances, gives a little better insight about how things work in the puzzle palace (I worked there for four years) and the top levels of decision making (one assignment was the National Emergency Airborne Command Post where I had the pleasure of participating in a demo ride for then VP George HW Bush) than maybe your (to be admired) work with OD patients in the ER. The old saying goes "you don't know what you don't know", and at the presidential level that saying is spot on.
So I don't share your conviction that certain things are true....especially when based on espousal by someone who did not observe the event first hand. I don't KNOW whether he is or isn't asking the important questions, and tend to not lend credence to arguments based on third hand (at the best) information. You can believe as you do, but your somewhat negative description of those who answered your overhead question in this or another post is, in my opinion, without merit. Because they don't agree with you doesn't make them any less a patriot.
