It is the politicians that I am not in favor of.

I hope you were as disapproving of the previous administration as you apparently are of the current one.

I can make a long list of ways in which they used the military for political goals.

And anyone who has read, or watched "Blackhawk Down" knows that had Les Aspin approved the local commander's request for an armored quick reaction force in Mogadishu, that tragedy might not have occurred.
