Lt. Col. Paul Yingling probably just flushed his Army career down the toilet ...
... but by name and while still on active duty, he explains why the war in Iraq is going so badly wrong. Short version: Generals who have faced enemy fire courageously cannot and will not be truthful in telling their civilian overseers what resources will be required to reach stated objectives. Such generals, he says, betray not only their commands but also the country as a whole.
