RIP General Norman Schwarzkopf

Some lady called into the Norman Goldman show and said she had met Schwarzkopf at a folk music festival a few years back, and that he wasn't only a folk music fan, but even played autoharp. She had to help him tune the thing, actually.
Doesn't mean much in the big picture, but it certainly doesn't fit the typical right wing warmonger stereotype.Still waiting for a relevant Browns TeamComment

One would hope that those who have seen war up close and personal would hate it, much like Generals Smedley Butler and Dwight Eisenhower did. Not sure whether that was true or not with Schwarzkopf.Eat Us And Smile

He served his country well.
He was a great military leader, and was respected by everyone below him.
Anyone that would bad mouth him for following any order is a piece of shit in my book, and should take a warm bath with a razor blade so the gene pool can be rid of your Jane Fonda wanna be ass. What's next for ya ? Maybe heckling some dead soldiers family at his funeral? Your all discusting people.
Fuck off.

Many may not remember now since it's been 20 years, but both Schwarzkopf and Powell were being strongly considered for promotion to 5-star General during the 1st Gulf War....
Met Stormin' Norman in the Pentagon after the end of the "war", much like the majority of Flag Officers I met during my 20 years, was very cool....Eat Us And Smile - The Originals

Bush went to the United Nations and said we were going to attack anyone funding terror or anyone funding terror and keeping WMD .
Saddam was paying terrorists to kill Americans and had WMD , he used them on thousands of his own countrymen.
I don't see what anyone has to bitch about. If you don't understand that, you must be stupid.
This is what your problem is.
You are the type that will allow Americans to be killed, a do nothing and wait type like Jane Fonda, you want to pull the covers over your head and act like nothing is wrong. Then when someone ( republican) makes a move and does something about it, you call them murderers and pigs, criminals.
Your a discusting human being, I wish you would just leave.

Impressive Man: Compassionate, Fierce, Open, Disciplined in his beliefs. Thank you for your Service. RIP
What I find impressive is neither his politics nor his acknowledged weakness in his own confusion, but his approach to warfare.
An engineer in his head and fierceness in his heart, lol and the ability to fill his own belly with his laughter.
My condolences to his friends and family.

ah, come on guys...what was so brillant about "Desert Storm"? He send a shitload of B-52's, PGM's and Daisy Cutters on old school tanks dug in the sand. and at the end of the day Saddam Hussein was still sitting on his ass in Bagdad, while the oil fields were burning.Roth Army Icon

He was one of the last of the generals in the George S. Patton mold. Explosive temper. Out to kick ass. Hated politics.
Leave Colin Powell and all the politics out of this. Go yammer in some other thread about all that BCE shit.
General Schwartzkopf was great at his job.
Rest In Peace, Sir.

As for Saddam using chemical weapons on his own people, where in the fuck did you think he got them? No, not some terrorist base in bumfuck nowhere but right in in the USA from Fredrick, Maryland.
You're a Chuck Norris Nazi redneck turd. Go wave your Chinese made American flag elsewhere.Comment
