Bush says he doesnt want Washington Politicians telling Generals what to do???

[LSK]

Ok Mr. Bush, how about asking General Zinni what to do?



Oh, yeah, he thought Saddam was contained and he "retired".

Or maybe Mr. Bush, you would like to ask General Shinseki what to do?



Oh yeah, he suggested too many troops needed to occupy Iraq, so he had to go too.

Ok, how about Jay Garner?



He suggested that the Iraqis keep the army intact and was against debathification. Cant have him around. Bye bye Jay.

Ok, what does General Abaziad think of the surge idea?



Today at a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing, CentCom commander Gen. John Abizaid rejected McCain’s calls for increased U.S. troop levels in Iraq, saying that he “met with every divisional commander, Gen. Casey, the core commander, Gen. Dempsey” and asked them if bringing “in more American troops now, add considerably to our ability to achieve success in Iraq and they all said ‘no.’”

Has there EVER been a time when Bush actually listened to a General??????

1. We all know Bush is just plain full of shit and he has to go

...Impeach Bush and Cheney now!

2. Congress wrote the UCMJ. Congress can change the UCMJ.

Congress already DOES tell the Generals what to do.

Washington politicians (Congress) can dictate how Generals behave and the punishment for misbehavior....as well as all members of the military

Just as another point of fact - in addition to the other powers the Constitution grants to Congress regarding the military

3. And I don't like a member of the executive branch telling the Congress how to handle

their constitutional duties, especially as relates to powers involving the purse strings and declaring war.

4. Why are we humoring this birdbrain

5. I second that.

All in favor signify by saying "aye".

6. He 'is a 'Politician' telling 'generals' 'what to do'!

7. Iraqi Study Group done with Generals' Input
