If the table had been turned around, MacArthur would be labeled one of the worst war criminals in the 20th century. These are the five besetting sins of a general, ruinous to the conduct of campaign. The US Congress gathers to hear their war hero. MacArthur brings with him his wife and son and his old cronies. I now close my military career and just fade away - an old soldier who tried to do his duty as God gave him the light to see that duty.
Many congressmen weep openly.
A lynching party is formed to go after Truman. Damn fool Congressmen crying like a bunch of women. He leaks secret transcripts of MacArthur's statements at the Wake meeting to the New York Times. MacArthur has been making statements that contract what's been recorded in the transcripts. Apparently, he forgot about the transcripts and got caught telling white lies.
