Tuesday, March 27, 2007 - Dissenting Generals

There is a terrific article in this month's Vanity Fair (with the Sopranos on the cover) about 6 retired Generals who finally attacked the Bush regime's (and specifically Rumsfeld's) handling of the war in Iraq. The article is a must read. My favorite quote from the article sums it all up for me.....the quote comes from an article previously printed in Time magazine and written by Lieutenant General Greg Newbold, and I quote entirely from the article:

"American forces had been sent to Iraq, he wrote, 'with a casualness and swagger that are the special province of those who have never had to execute these missions-or bury the results.'"

After reading this article my hope is that Rumsfeld never has another decent night's sleep as long as he lives. Probably he takes a Tylenol PM and sleeps like a baby, but  girl can only hope.
