The current Army leadership hates the Bush Administration because they do not have the respect of Don Rumsfeld, who is downsizing their weaponry and reducing their role in favor of the better trained and more disciplined Marine Corps.

Articles like this one are to be expected.

I read it the same way.
It seems the Army reporter is pissed that they wont be getting additional funds to pay for "cannon fodder".
The Army seems to resist the idea that in the real world,advances in technology and aversion to unneccessary casualties,have occurred in civilian world.
Looks like a whole lot of "double-dippers" are in danger of losing their superfluous, cushy jobs.

Pukin Dog, You're clueless. The Army Times has nothing to do with the Army or the Army leadership. It is a completely independent, private newspaper. And anyway, the editorial covers all services, not just the Army.
