Default Revolt of the Generals

Uh huh. Can we get a quote from the generals, wherein they
say that?

Er Doug.....

That _is_ a direct quote from the four Generals. They were the authors of
the piece.


I don't think so, it does not sound like what I have
read/heard from other sources. I bet this is some
pro-Bush/Cheney source putting words in their mouths so as
to discredit them... a popular game with Rush Limbaugh and
his many imitators on the right.

From what I have heard & read, the generals chief complaint
is that the Bush Adminstration ignored all serious advice
about planning for post-war Iraq and are now planning on
using the overstretched military to try & solve the problem
they have let fester with Iran for so long.

I though Bush & Cheney ran on a platform of rebuilding the
military, not relying on the Reserves for long-term
international security? What happened to their promises?
