He clarified his stance yesterday when he stated he would not send Troops knowing what we know now. He further admitted he answered as he did originally in an attempt to not throw his brother and father under the bus and also out of respect for the families that lost loved ones there. To me that screams principles.
He did not waffle on a "real" issue. He tried to show respect to his family and the families of fallen Soldiers while answering a make-believe scenario.
I just call 'em how I see 'em. Anyone that waffles like that I question their principles. As well as their ability to handle the pressure of the job if they can't handle questions like that.
