Faux presidential style seal + faux presidential style press conference = Real Hubris
First, there is some indication that the Bush Doctrine maybe working on Axis of Evil member North Korea. Then, the Supreme Court ruling. Later, news that the Navy has had another successful test of our missle interception system. That makes 35 hits out of 43 attempts since 2001. Finally, this news:
"Two key military nominations were approved Thursday afternoon by the Senate Armed Services Committee.By voice vote, the committee approved Army Gen. David Petraeus to become the U.S. Central Command commander and approved Army Lt. Gen. Raymond Odierno to receive a fourth star and to succeed Petraeus as the Multi-National Force Iraq commander.
The U.S. Central Command post, which would make Petraeus responsible for operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, was filled until March by Navy Adm. William Fallon, who resigned after a magazine article quoted him as having differences with President Bush about how to deal with Iran.
