The ship of state
Apr. 21 - Great read: Charles Krauthammer explains how the
"I-know-better" generals get on the slippery slope (which is something of an understatement as that slippery slope leads toward a chasm of Grand Canyon proportions.)
This latest controversy would be more at home in Bizarro Land. Those who are seriously in favour of letting the military dictate policy need help -- fast. The others - those who advocate such for their own opportunistic reasons - have revealed so total a lack of understanding about the relationship between the military and civilian government and especially why such safeguards are necessary that they manage to be both pathetic and dangerous.
The eagerness with which much of the anti-war left has grasped at any and all straws to stay afloat has become tiresome, but this latest instance just might amuse Plato.

RLGOODSON Emailed this to me..
> "—Five Star General of the Army Omar Bradley had this to say about your actions: 'I am convinced that the best service a retired general can perform is to turn in his tongue along with his suit, and to mothball his opinions.' How about retiring your protests until our young men and women are out of harm's way in Iraq. You do them and your nation, a great disservice." —Lt. Gen. (USA, ret), Alexandria, Virginia.

Exactly, TG
