Al >If the military-only group made all decisions on deployment and strategy, would it be any less worrisome?

In this age of specialization, some feel the military should have the exclusive rights to decide about killing and mass-murder.

What's going on with the Bush administration, however, is no less terrifying where a bunch of virtual school boys, people who know life only from the class-room, are attempting to change the history of the world because they managed, by devious ways, to get their hands on the levers of power.

Reminds me of some kids who stole the keys to daddy's car and are now attempting to drive it --- one stands on the seat and steers while he recites the Lord's Prayer (GWB), the second sits on the floor and works the pedals with his hands (Wolfowitz), the third sits on the back seat navigating (Perle) and the oldest is hidden in the trunk calling out instructions from the service manual (Cheney)!
