Just a couple of random thoughts on this:

- Gen Shinseki has been a lame duck for just about a year now. His replacement, the serving Vice Chief, was tapped to replace him an unheard of lead time of 14 or 15 months. I believe Shinseki leaves in June or July.

- The descrepancy in numbers for an eventual occupying force begs for Sec Def Rummy and/or Sec Army White to step in and clear things up. If they don't step in, I'd have to say the whole thing is an example of planned confusion or just plain old disinformation.

Hello, Bigg Red

Thanks for the info, but June or July is too far away for that turkey!

Hello, yourself, my dear. Hope to see you tomorrow.
