Wrong.
The only governmental body that has the power to "provide for the common defense" is the Congress. While I'm sure you'd like to live in a dictatorship, as evidenced by your inane comments, the military does not work for the President. The Military receives its authority from the Congress and is commanded from time to time by the President.
As I said, Tough Titties. Rumsfeld works for Bush, and we will send him over to talk to you again if you like. Otherwise, suck eggs.
You and Daschle think alike... did you write this list of questions regarding the upcoming war with Iraq for Daschle?
1) Will it help elect democrats in November? 2) Can democrats get the majority of the credit if successful? 3) Can democrats blame republicans if unsuccessful? 4) If it leads to the loss of American lives, can the dead still vote for democrats in November?
Sincerely,
DemiDog for Tom Daschle

The last part of that sentence. What exactly is the 'time to time' you are talking about?
