Default Revolt of the Generals

Something must be up. In general, (pun aside) these are men of honor and
duty. The fact so many of them have spoken up (not a common occurence, ever)
says something is astray.

Did you know that the Rumsfield/Bush agenda was to REDUCE the size of the
beloved Marine Corps?

Has oil revenues from Iraq paid for the occupation? Remember, that was
Rumsfeld's plan.

Bush and the Bushbots are trigger happy, very quick to shoot the messenger.

Compassionate Conservative = Outspend the Liberals

Next stop - War with Iran!

Glory to God!

And while there has often been background grumbling about
mismanagement of a war, AFAIK there hasn't been so many
senior people agreeing on so much, so specifically.

They didn't think they needed 'em.

Well, he got the idea from the "New American Century" guys
who were unabashed imperialists back in the 1990s. One of
the things they hate Clinton for is that they told him to
invade Iraq and he wouldn't listen.

That's because their aim is too poor to shoot the cause,
which is always further away.

On advertising.

That's right, maybe we can reverse the age-old historic
dictum about getting involved in a land war in Asia.

Rumsfeld was a member of the PNAC way back in the 90s. His signature is
on that letter to President Clinton.
