General Tommy Franks defeated 2 of our declared enemies in the course of 18 months with a death rate, during those 18 months, of less than 1 hundreth of 1%.

A record to be applauded.

Do you think Mr. Franks could have a spot waiting for him in the next Bush Administration? I really admire what little I've seen of him.

Yes well, the opposition was not such as really tests the metal of a great captain. Not in the league. Professional, competent, sure. But greatness is more than that.

Yeah, now that I think about it, Tommy Franks has won the most lopsided victory in human history. 999 to 1 kills/losses ... that's unmatched anywhere.

Technology doesn't equate to smarts on the battlefield. Especially against a third rate enemy.
