[Mind-numbed Robot]

Was reading about the writer/reporter, Steven Vincent, who was recently killed in Basra. He cited an American Captain who was doling out millions of dollars in construction contracts to various groups. When it was pointed out the much of the money was simply being stolen and maybe even used by the terrorists, he commented that he didn't think he should judge, that "Who is to say our values are better than theirs?" I know where those ideas come from but how do they survive military training and the oath of allegiance to our Constitution?

Unbelieveable! I have my serious doubts about some ROTC programs -- would love to know where he went to school. What a jerk and what about the people above him? I am less than impressed with some of the current officers we have.
