Gen. Sanchez: Dems Right On Iraq
Another troop hater:
Retired Army Lt. Gen. Ricardo Sanchez, the top commander in Iraq shortly after the fall of Baghdad, said this week he supports Democratic legislation that calls for most troops to come home within a year.
Of course, Sanchez is a controversial figure who allowed the atrocities at Abu Ghraib under his watch. And his past judgments were very faulty. My point is not that we should trust his judgment. I do not. I have made my own. My point is it is hard to label Sanchez or anyone, who favors withdrawal from Iraq as "anti-troops. That is the political sigificance here. Hopefully, it will stiffen some Dem backbones.
