I watched that briefing where the guy wanted 4-star General Tommy Franks instead of 1-star General Brooks. At one point Gen. Brooks had to say something like this, "I can tell who is telling the truth in this room. It's me!"
BTW, Gen. Brooks is black. Can you imagine the firestorm that would have erupted if that question had come from, say, The Christian Science Monitor?

Yeah I can imagine it. Someone needs to ask Jesse, Al, Charlie Rangel and Sgt. Akbar's step dad what they think of a black man with a star on his collar. Especially since Sgt. Akbar's step dad made the absolutely HEINOUS statement that the army is 'racist" and "a black man will never achieve a position of power in the U.S. Army." The commander of Forces Command is black.....the commander of the Air National Guard is black...and his father was the FIRST Black General in the military. I WISH someone in the media would point these things out to the so-called "black leaders" in this country when they start saying the military is bias against minorities.
