[QUOTE="SMS, post: 2053222, member: 42"] The potential is not just there....it's already being utilized. While we sit around and argue over whether or not his statements are informed, useful, potential, or don't matter. This wasn't just one opinion in an interview....he was on a national news radio outlet again [I]this morning[/I] spouting the same drivel. He has set up camp on the side of the anti's and they are running with it. If you have any experience with IO operations, you know that it doesn't matter one bit if your position is "informed" or even true...what matters is that you get your message out first, often, and dominate the airwaves with an [I]image[/I]. The image, or idea, at play here is a fairly respected military leader, who had disagreements with the administration in the past, coming out in support of the agenda. That does, and will, resonate with people who are on the fence. [/QUOTE]
