John Hawkins over at Right Wing News has an interesting interview [1] up with Will Breazeale, who is an Iraqi vet running for Congress.  In the interview, Breazeale tells an interesting story regarding Harry Reid and Barbara Boxer;

General Whitcomb, commander of Third Army, and left in disgust. And I said, “who are these people to do that?”
