From Sunday’s Washington Post (emphasis added):
The blunt truth is that while contractors are carrying out valuable roles, their overall effect has been to undermine the Iraq mission and the wider fight against terrorism. Worst of all, we have outsourced the most important core function of our government: to fight and win the nation’s wars.
I’ve said it before: Hiring mercenaries whose loyalty is to whoever signs their paycheck, rather than to the United States of America, is probably not a good idea.
