Reuters left out "Retired" Generals.

This is a key point. When I first read the title I was spun into thinking, "well if currently surving Generals (plural) are calling for him to step down maybe the Whitehouse should consider some action."

You'll never see a serving general or admiral call for the Secretary of Defense or any other civilian military head resign. That apparently doesn't mean that some aren't thinking it.

Clinton Generals.Go figure.Clinton replaced one of the greatest Generals we ever had during the Bosnian fiasco.General Joulwan for Ramsey Clark.Ramsey Clark was not qualified to shine his shoes,let alone replace him.I met General Joulwan when he was a LTC.Colonel,and he is a great man.If you notice,I never referred to Ramsey Clark as a General.It had a devastating impact on all involved.

"This is a key point."

Active duty generals learns the lessons of MacAuthur and Pattan and more recently an Air Forse general critical of Clinton. Keep your mouth shut (in public) until you retire, then speak your mind.
