Who are these "Generals?" As a former enlisted man, I am stunned, why not take the stars off and hand them in and then speak? Remember Gen Johnson (CSA) during Vietnam? The greatest moral failure...
Maj Gen Charles H Swannack Jr, Army- CG of the 82d Abn Div. Affairs with a woman not his wife "allegations" led to retirement.
Maj Gen John Riggs, Army- Improper conduct (contracting) Retirement
Maj Gen John Batiste, Army- Paul Wolfowitz top military aid, couldn't speak his mind? Getting third star but slipped away...President of Steel Company...money not war
Gen Anthony Zinni, Marines- Oh, USS Cole got hit where? Who approved that plan to port?
Lt Gen Gregory Newbold, Marines- "I'm looking forward to a job that doesn't have the intensity and lack the quality of life that this one has." What about the enlisted guys? Remember "the combat power of the Taliban has been eviscerated".
Maj Gen Paul Eaton, Army- David Hackworth wrote a critical column on Gen Eaton's leadership dealing with Rangers. He was not the man to train the Iraqi Army and had no idea of what he was doing. Look what that Iraqi Battalion did in its first firefight, guess that was SecDefs fault.
Thanks for that info!
Very interesting post...as my 1sg hubby said..these guys have an axe to grind about something....now I see what they were...
At the same time, the Executive Branch has claimed a previously unrecognized authority to mistreat prisoners in its custody in ways that plainly constitute torture in a pattern that has now been documented in U.S. facilities located in several countries around the world.
Over 100 of these captives have reportedly died while being tortured by Executive Branch interrogators and many more have been broken and humiliated. In the notorious Abu Ghraib prison, investigators who documented the pattern of torture estimated that more than 90 percent of the victims were innocent of any charges.
According to the 2000 Democrat party Presidential nominee,apparently Bush has his own "interrogators" now, who are killing, breaking, and humiliating our barbarian raghead enemy.
Algore won the popular vote in 200 and tried to steal the Presidency
The "New York Times" and "Newsweek" are not monolithic faceless alien oracles.
They are run by the the likes of the leftist homosexual on the right, ARTHUR SULZBERGER JR, and the socialist crook on the left, DONALD GRAHAM, Chair and CEO of Newsweek and Washington Post, son of CATHERINE GRAHAM MEYER, former owner of the Washington Post.
Every day these 2 enemies of the state unleash a horde of minor league propagandists on the American psyche in a blatant attempt to topple any GOP government that is elected by the American people.
They do not care if innocent civilians or soldiers die as a result and national security be damned.
2006 is the year they will be stopped.
They will no longer be able to hide unde a cloak of annonymity.
They will be exposed and their names equated with treacherous acts.
They and their komrades will be surveilled and brought up on charges.

This is the face of the enemy.
His name is Donald Newhouse, billionaire democrat and managing director of the Associated Press, a leftist propaganda organ comitted to undermining the GOP at any cost, including the security of the nation.
Make no mistake about it.
The attempt to discredit the secretay of the WOT is being perpetrated by the individuals listed above and their allies.
They must pay for their crimes and must be arrested after the next attack on the homeland.
