'..."The problem today, says Webb, is that current "civilian elites" hold "cavalier attitudes toward the military" and display "condescending views." The people currently running the country, says Webb, never went to college with anyone who later joined the military. They "have no one in their family who was in the military" and "they don't know anyone in the military."
In fact, neither the president, the secretary of defense, the secretary of state or the CIA director have ever worn a uniform. The closest this group comes to having actual military experience is National Security Advisor Sandy Berger who, says former Navy Secretary Webb, was once "a dental technician reservist."
Instead, military policy is being made by people like former Assistant Secretary of the Army Sara Lister who once accused the Marine Corps of being "extremist," and Professor Madeline Morris, an advisor to Army Secretary Togo West, who once wrote a paper suggesting the Army be organized along the line of Communist Party cells to break up its "masculinist military construct" and what she regarded as its "proclivity for rape." ...'
