35. So Jim Webb...
After 4 years at West Point, tours of duty in VietNam where he earned the second highest decoration possible in the Navy, not to mention bronze stars, silver stars and purple hearts, attendance at Georgetown University where he earned his law degree, 4 years on the staff of the House Committee on Veterans Affairs, a stint as Navy Secretary, and as a well respected author and commentator on foreign and military policy, an acknowledged expert on the middle east and the role of U.S. foreign Policy in the region...and as United States Senator...is "inadvertently" "feeding the war machine"?

Exactly how does a person like this, with this level of experience and insight, "inadvertently" take any policy position...?
