Why does the openly defeatest and supine Jimmy Carter have a conduit into the military decision making process of this country in our darkest hour?

He doesn't. Relax. Powell and others have made a number of calls to various officials from former administrations. It is more of a courtesy than anything else.

Agreed. I think I smell a good cop/bad cop strategy in place. (Hope that isn't a military secret.) ;-)
