I believe we still have military that would demonstrate that kind of leadership. But are there any of our current political leaders who anyone might argue would demonstrate that kind of leadership? Would any of them put their jobs at risk based on whether their political decisions worked out for the country? Name one you think might demonstrate such guts. Just one.

The answer is obvious...and shameful.
No matter what else you might say of him, George W. Bush was that kind of leader. He had that kind of courage and fortitude without question, and the personnel of the military knew it, and loved him for it.
