Writing in the New York Post today, Ralph Peters, a member of Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) war cabinet, blasts the “massive egos” he sees behind the “Newseum” opening in Washington, DC today, a museum chronicling the history of the American news industry. Peters argues that an an American military museum would be better:
There’s no museum in the vicinity of the National Mall dedicated to our military. Tells you a lot about the vanity and priorities of today’s governing and informational “elite,” doesn’t it? Ignore the blood, enshrine the ink. A Pulitzer Prize outranks a Congressional Medal of Honor.
Max Boot, another McCain advisor, agrees that we need an American military museum “— or better still (because less politically correct) an American War Museum — in our nation’s capital.”

We're in a recession so where do we get the funding for his bright idea of the old man. Let's take the taxpayers rebate checks for the War museum and put the memo that was drawn up in 2002 to allow torture, spying, rape, murder and stealing in a glass case. We can show how well became World Terrorist under the Bush/Cheney Administration. We can show the pictures of the 4000 plus dead soldiers who died based on lies. We can show how we took money away for the Walter Reed Hospital so our injured troops couldn't get proper health care. We can show how we raped and murdered innocent Iraq woman and children. We can show that with our fail illegal invasion that the Iraq people are worse now then when Saddam was in charge. Yes this is a great idea. We can show how a US President in only 7 years has made the United States of America the most hated country in the World. I know Americans really don't need those rebate checks and would rather give the money to a pet project thought up by another idiot.
