"Rumsfeld Inspired by God", says Peter Pace head of the JCS
Now, I know that the military brass are some of the world's biggest asskissers, but this is a bit much.

http://www.news24.com/News24/World/0,9294,2-10_2017169,00.html

Miami - The top US general on Thursday defended the leadership of defence secretary Donald Rumsfeld, saying it is inspired by God.

"He leads in a way that the good Lord tells him is best for our country," said marine General Peter Pace, chair of the joint chiefs of staff.

But he got a strong show of support from the military establishment at Thursday's ceremony, where navy Admiral James Stavridis took over Southcom's command from General Bantz Craddock.

"He comes to work every day with a single-minded focus to make this country safe," said Stavridis, who was a senior aide to Rumsfeld before taking on the Southcom job.

"We're lucky as a nation that he continues to serve with such passion and such integrity and such determination and such brilliance," said Stavridis.

1. boyton's input has become painfully obvious.
we need a major restructuring of our flag officers in the pentagon. And we need to bar them forever from working for any military industrial complex group of thieves.

4. Madmen who survived the purges are running our military
straight into the ground.

I served two years in the Army during Vietnam and never heard anything like this. I worked in the Pentagon and at Ft McNair and never heard anything like this. Batshit crazy people are now in charge.

10. We should start a campaign about Bush turning Americans into
atheists - if God is directing Bush and Rummy, then it's obvious God is not on our side. No God I believe in could screw up this badly.
