Sherwood's Criticisms of 'Presidential Wannabes' in November 2003

On the 8th November 2003, Carlton Sherwood appeared on the Judicial Watch Report Radio Show. The host was Tom Fitton, Judicial Watch’s president. Sherwood had just returned from Iraq and was invited onto the show to talk (via telephone) about the worsening security situation. At about 42 minutes and 10 seconds into the show, Sherwood said this:

"Every time I get up in the morning and I turn on the cable news and I see that one or two more of our soldiers have been killed it’s like a kick in the guts to me, personally. But it’s also a double whammy because I know what soundbite’s going to follow that. And you’re right. It’ll be some wannabe - a Presidential wannabe, or one of their aides, carping, almost gleefully, using your word, almost gleefully that, uh, this is one more evidence of a failure."

    Nobody expects him to be normal—he’s a bishop.
    —Robert E. Sherwood (1896–1955)

    The sway of alcohol over mankind is unquestionably due to its power to stimulate the mystical faculties of human nature, usually crushed to earth by the cold facts and dry criticisms of the sober hour. Sobriety diminishes, discriminates, and says no; drunkenness expands, unites, and says yes.
    William James (1842–1910)

    It was always November there.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
