2. Don't think it would bother anybody.
It'll just be a new puppet for the Chimp in the oval office to pull his strings.

3. Firing their guns happily into the air. (Ammo industry rejoices.)
The military had already been grumbling for a long time, at least the guys with brass on their caps & shoulders. Otherwise, the military press--which I believe was the real impetus for Bush's abrupt decision--would never have taken such a strong, unified stance in its editorials against Rummy on Monday. Rummy has always been a hard guy to like.
