The Military-Psychological Complex
“The U.S. Army illegally ordered a team of soldiers specializing in ‘psychological operations’ to manipulate visiting American senators into providing more troops and funding for the war, Rolling Stone has learned — and when an officer tried to stop the operation, he was railroaded by military investigators.”
One of the senators in question was Juan McCain. You don’t need a Hannibal Lecter to make him do anything.
All one has to do is wave some bucks, compare the Afghans to his Vietnamese tormentors and let the rage flow on past.
A mind is a terrible thing to senatardize.
@ManchuCandidate: did Juan McCain destroy any American planes for the Taliban to add to his reverse ace total?
They bought them a cup of coffee?
What is that illustration? Do I need new glasses?

Considering his total includes the air wing of the Forrestal, probably doesn’t need to.
who knew men who stare at goats was talking about John McCain
