David Hackworth - Rumsfeld and Myers should be sacked
Over at Military.com


Hackworth: Sack 'Em and Rack 'Em
June 28, 2004

"America would be a whole lot safer if the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Richard Myers, was flying for Virgin Airlines, and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was competing on "Survivor." Both war leaders have done so miserable a job honchoing the military side of our critical conflict against global terrorism, and in the process so jeopardized our national security, that they should be sacked for dereliction of duty."

Scathing commentary from former soldier about U.S. involvement in Iraq.

3. Hackworth is an impressive man.
When he speaks this openly, you can take it to the bank that CI and MI are openly contesting the White House's attempt at an over-all coup. The Supreme Court decisions from earlier this week are a clear indication that bush et al have gone too far. Tighten your seat belts, folks, The American adventure is about to begin in earnest.
