"Gen. Franks Doubts Constitution Will Survive WMD Attack." In an interview with Cigar Aficionado magazine, the general, now living in Tampa, argues that in the event of a WMD hit on the U.S., our form of government would go out the window. " If Bush is President, Franks could be right, but Franks' outlook also sums up why generals, like Franks and Wesley Clark, should never be elected President. Generals become famous through wars: killing and injuring other people. Apart from the main stream press, like the LA and NYTimes and those men who were conditioned to admired men who were warriors, I wonder if that many women admire Franks and Clark. The people who really deserve our respect are the real soldiers who fight the wars, and they are in dangerous places like Iraq and Afghanistan. They aren't hiding out at the Pentagon or in Little Rock.
