I find it comforting that some of our senior commanders would resign before doing something stupid they KNEW would lead to a bad end. The oath they take is to the constitution and the American people, not the President. Resignation is the correct course, then, they are free to speak out aganist the policy. I'm sure Bush can find enough ambitious suck-ups to do the deed anyway, just as with his "surge". What large organization is short of ambitious suck-ups?

what if we gave a war and nobody came!!!!!!!!!! What if people who don't give a damn about your well-being declared war on you, and nobody came to your rescue? You don't have to wonder, the world is full of answers. Ask the Bosnian Muslims. Ask the Tutsis. Ask the Tibetans. Ask the 200,000 dead in Darfur and the 2 million displaced. I could go on, but doubt you really give a damn about the well-being of these victims of genocide, you're just pleased with your joke at their expense. At least have the decency not to laugh at the dead. They can't fight back now, and it's not at all clever.
