War hero to Cheney: Where the hell were you in Vietnam? [VIDEO]

To Dick Cheney's recent comments at an AIPAC conference (a shameful affair) that calls for withdrawal from Iraq only embolden our enemies, war hero Max Cleland had this to say:

Where the hell were you in the Vietnam War? If you had gone to Vietnam like the rest of us, maybe you woulda learned something about war. You can't keep troops on the ground forever. They gotta have a mission. They gotta have a purpose.

You can't keep sending 'em back and back and back with no mission and no purpose. As a matter of fact, the real enemy is Al Qaeda, it's Al Qaeda stupid, it's not in Iraq. That's why we have to withdraw the ground forces there...

And, of course, the AMERICAN GOVERNMENT'S National Intelligence Estimate backs Cleland's position (and would cause extreme shame in Cheney were he not mostly composed of cobbled together swaths of chicken fat) concluding as it does that Iraq increased terrorism.

CNN's Wolf Blitzer goes on to ask Cleland: And what would you say to the president?

You screwed up royally...
