Things that Robert is thinking about that keep him from accomplishing anything.

 
Go Zealot on the Mountain
It's bad enough Gen. Boykin is such an incompetent boob as to liken the war on terrorism to the Crusades--he's actually relatively, even refreshingly, accurate in stating the administration's position, it's just a completely moronic position--it turns out he's completely incapable of delivering an inoffensive apology.

Of course, what's stupid is that the lesson the administration will take from this is that it needs to police what their generals say and/or find new generals who will say the right things rather than purge the zealots and apply some good old-fashioned secular reasoning.
