Members TampaYankee Posted June 28, 2010 Members Posted June 28, 2010 Thought it might be worthwhile to post this link to The Runaway General, the Rolling Stone piece that has occasioned such an uproar lately in D.C. Thanks for posting. I was curious to see the article that caused all the commotion. Interesting read. Pretty amazing expose' really, if substantially accurate. Not the bad-mouthing of the CIC and political establishment so much (bad enough and dealt with as necessary) but personal trajedy the these men pairing such ability and bravado with the apparent arrested development of grown-up maturity and judgment that seems to have alluded this General and so many in the group he surrounded himself with. I get the feeling of a really talented group of military school frat boys who just never grew up. Too bad the country has lost their continued contributions. Too bad they didn't have the maturity and judgment to act responsibly in the positions they were given. A loss for everyone. FWIW Quote
