Huh. Too bad. Well, I was surprised that Barnett was getting away with it. He spent a lot of time bitching about how he could give The Presentation (or whatever he calls it) in his sleep and was only giving it to drones (I am exaggerating for effect here). Did not reflect well on his boss. I don't suppose venting about supporting Kerry helped him, either. Leaving outside the personal stuff, which could not help, he was too something-or-other about being right. Not arrogant, since I agree with him. Insufferable? Being openly that much smarter than your boss in public is probably not wise, in the short run. Taking a longer view -- the people over at DU think he's evil. I expect that there was a serious write in campaign against him. Taking an even longer view - he's got a very bright future at a think tank, maybe in an administration if he can just figure out how to finesse the fact that he's a Democrat who believes in the necessity of military power. Or capitalize on it, if the Democrats ever come to their senses.
