Fred Thompson: Iraq insurgency is simply "a bunch of kids"

Well, it's nice to know that Thompson thinks the greatest fighting force in the history of the world isn't even good enough to take out "a bunch of kids." $2.4 trillion, nearly 4,000 American lives, and we still can't stop "a bunch of kids." Call me crazy, but I think Thompson just impugned General Petraeus and the troops, n'est-ce pas?
