Politically speaking, I agree...GWB should have canned Armitage. I think Armitage was given a choice, resign or be fired. He resigned the day after Powell, and likely recieved the same choice.

"I don't think Aarmitage slip was intentional." If it WASN'T intentional... then the motormouth should have been shit-canned a long time ago from his alleged career as a 'diplomat' --- as this is not the first time he has been observed engaging in harmful loose-lipped 'gossip'. If it WAS intentional (& it may have been...) then he should have been PROSECUTED at best, and canned at minimum. But REGARDLESS of whether 'intentional' or no --- BUSH should have stuck to his public pledge and fired the guy as soon as he found out (which - as the public now knows - wasn't very long after he first made the pledge!)
