While I understand where he is coming from, saying "when you call the Iraqi war a mistake, you disrespect the service and the sacrifice of everyone that has died promoting freedom" is not true. There is a huge difference between calling a military operation a mistake and disrespecting individual soldiers. If ~90k civilian Iraqi deaths means spreading our view of freedom to a part of the world the average American will never be able to understand, then that's very scary.
The fact is, no matter how horrible a decision of military action is made, saying it was a poor choice is not a comment at the individuals fighting the war, it's of the leaders in the government that made the final decision to conduct the action. The Vietnam conflict is widely seen as a military failure on the part of the US, yet saying so is not an attack on individuals that fought there, including John McCain.

Screw McCain for a few reasons that I don't think I will divulge in here because people will just stomp with with political bullshit.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion.
And yeah...Obama is saying that the leaders are fucking idiotic nitwits and not those that chose to go into the armed forces. Military is just following orders. The day a mutiny arises is the day pure anarchy will show its pretty face in America.
