The founding fathers were very clear in that the military works for the civilian elected leadership.

The Democrats want the military to become politically active and to lobby for the resignation of their civilian bosses. This is truly insane.

This anything to get Bush mindset has now crossed the line from deranged to downright dangerous to a free nation.

Many military personnel have avoided voting because they wanted to avoid the appearance of conflict of interest. We admire and respect our military personnel.

Having people like Ramsey Clark whose ethics are beyond belief criticising anything is surreal. It is interesting that the general criticism seems to be weighted towards the Army. The Challenger mega cannon is about the only acquisition project I can ever recall getting the axe. Rummie was in the camp who ensured its demise. One of the general critics was on the Challenger team. Is there a little axe grinding going on?
