To my recollection, js mcsame said one thing that wasn't either a lie or a distortion. |
|
he said it was a mistake to abandon Afghanistan after we funded the mujahadeen's defeat of the Soviet Union.
Otherwise, it was all distortion and an alarming number of outright lies.

4. He also forgot to mention that he was one of the Senators who |
|
abandoned them.
Charlie Wilson: "We won the war, but lost the peace," when talking about the Russian defeat in Afghanistan.

8. I can't stand mcsame, but in fairness, he did sort of acknowledge that |
|
saying it was one of his biggest mistakes and biggest regrets and a mistake that can't be repeated.
