True.

There's an interesting little factoid contained in this story, btw:

Ex-general tears into U.S. moves in Iraq
cnews.canoe.ca

<<Garner complained of bad relations between the Pentagon and State Department, saying he didn't learn of a detailed study by Secretary of State Colin Powell for postwar Iraq until a few weeks before the war began in March.

After learning of the State Department plan in February, Garner had brought in Tom Warrick, a senior official involved in the study. But Garner said he was forced to fire Warrick by Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld.

Though Garner said he protested that Warrick was "too valuable" to lose, he said Rumsfeld told him: "'This came to me from such a high level that I can't overturn it, and I've just got to ask you to remove Mr. Warrick.' >>

I didn't know Rummy anwered toi anybody. <g>
