I couldn't agree more that he is grasping for justifications. As an  
Obama supporter I sympathize with people who cling to their guns and  
religion and the military culture is the functional equivalent of a  
religion for some.

Chuck reminds me of some of my friends. When they flip, they flip  
hard. I was talking to one yesterday who heard McCain criticizing  
Obama for not using the word "victory" about Iraq and he flashed on  
Patraeus talking about how he would never use the word "victory" in  
the context of Iraq. Somehow this convinced him that McCain was  
cynically mounting his campaign on the backs of the troops.
