Uncle Jimbo at BlackFive Commits "Mea Culpa" and Agrees with Me

I was doing my normal review of the Blackfive site for laughs and giggles when I came across the posting below from "Uncle Jumbo". For almost 1.5 years, he has been telling me that those who do not agree with Bush are "defeatists" and "do not support the troops" yet now, it appears, he has had a change of heart.

I will not spend hours linking everything as everyone who is a reader of my site knows that I have said Rumsfeld et AL. had no idea what they were doing since day 1. Remember when the "liberals" were all saying it was an insurgency and the "Uncle Jumbos" of the world were saying we had no idea what we were talking about? Well, it appears we did and, as Uncle Jumbo says, if Rumsfeld and the whacked out Noe cons had listened to us "liberals" they would have been far better off.

One thing I find very interesting is when UJ says that he knew Rumsfeld was wrong but he vocalized public support for him so that he could "support the troops". UJ, that is cowardly! Imagine all the troops that died while you "knew the battle strategy was wrong" but you "supported the troops". That makes you complicit in the death of those soldiers because, in your own words, you did not act on or vocalize the known problems with the battle. I am sure those families of dead soldiers who were killed during the Rumsfeld denial of the insurgency are glad you "supported the troops".
