1. I've heard of a theater of war.
But why did Congress allow itself to be used as a theater for Bush's staging of this travesty on the American people. It's disgusting.

7. I believe you -
Then in fact he is NOT deserving the title general officer - not ever!

He proved a negative then - our officers do NOT engage in political discourse - they are not supposed to. Not that way. Not even in a real war.

Bastard is about right I think.

Ike is probably turning over in his grave about now.

And he sure is no Ike. Or Clark or anything else.

What happened to those "great recruits" you had up in Mosul Mr Petraeus??

Where did they go?? Sure not in the Iraqi Army.

Joe
