There was a US General on Faux News (of all places) this morning
addressing that very question.


Who was the General? Is he on active duty, or is he a "former General" who
doesn't really have his finger on the pulse over there? Was he interviewed
while in Iraq, or was he sitting in Fox News' broadcast building?

If you can provide his name (or even the name of the person who interviewed
him) we can read the transcript and see exactly who this General was and
what he actually said (not that I don't believe somebody like you who refers
to Fox News as Faux News). Time to put up or shut up.

Calling it faux news is a cheap shot but generally deserved.

The story aired between about 9:30 and 10 AM PDT 7/25/05. It appeared
that the general was on active duty. He was shown in uniform commenting
from Iraq. I was exercising on the elliptical without glasses and
couldn't read his name on the 13" tube across the room. I'm sure they
introduced him but I was paying attention to the newspaper until the
discussion moved to the make up of the insurgency.

A more diligent or competent researcher could probably find a transcript
(LexisNexis?). I briefly searched the Foxnews site but didn't find a
reference to that particular story. Sorry, but it's now exceeded my
struggle/fun ratio threshold.
