"It became painfully obvious that the executive branch of our government did not trust its military. It relied instead on a(n) ... ideology developed by men and women with little, if any, military experience. Some senior military leaders did not challenge civilian decision makers at the appropriate times, and the courageous few who did take a stand were subsequently forced out of the service."



And based on the past several Democratic administrations, you expect this to change FOR THE BETTER in the future?

I just hope you are willing to hold the NEXT president to the standards you are willing to apply to Bush.
