Hey is it True that John Abizaid has applied for Retirement
top US Middle East commander in mid-March

He extended his tour from last spring at the request of the president and former defense secretary Rumsefled.

Now that Rummsy is gone does that mean Abizaid is too

3. Is Pace a fundie? I got a hint that he is, something he said at
a presser. I'm guessing that he is all for more war? Or is he quiting too.

The really disturbing thing is that Bush may be filling the Pentagon with nothing but hard line generals that might support a "suspension of elections" or something.
