Marine Corps Maj. Gen. Michael Lehnert is obviously a starry-eyed liberal appeaser who wants to weaken America:
In late 2001, when the Pentagon decided to put detainees at the U.S. military base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, the task of setting up a camp and establishing its rules went to Marine Brig. Gen. Michael Lehnert.
….On Thursday, as the 58-year-old officer prepared to retire after 36 years in the Marine Corps, he expressed his deep disappointment about what happened at Guantanamo after he left. “I think we lost the moral high ground,” Lehnert said. “For those who do not think much of the moral high ground, that is not that significant.
“But for those who think our standing in the international community is important, we need to stand for American values. You have to walk the walk, talk the talk.”
Lehnert says he’s fully in favor of shutting down Guantanamo. “I think the information we’re getting is not worth the international beating we’re taking,” he says. Semper fi.
