George W. Bush shares yet another characteristic of Adolph Hitler - he thinks he knows more about conducting military operations than his generals. As he has done countless times, George has now got rid of two more people who question his genius. Raw Story reports the breaking news that Gen. John Abizaid, US commander in the Middle East who was scheduled to retire in March will leave now to be replaced by Admiral William J. Fallon. David Petraeus will replace General George Casey, commander of US forces in Iraq. Both men have expressed concern about George Bush's "more of the same" strategy which so closely mirrors Lyndon B. Johnson's reliance on ever increasing troop levels in Viet Nam.
Once again we are shown that Bush's only measure of his subordinates is blind loyalty to his crusade. Screw up and you get a medal, speak up and you get the back door.

It's called failing upwards, which really is the story of W's life.
I'm finding, in these later years of my life, that my threshold for disgust has no limits.
President Bush has been an unimaginable posthumous gift to President Nixon, who, at one time anyway, seemed to have a lock on the historical distinction of being the pettiest president.
Nixson,Johnson and Bush jr. all have something in common..They tried to manage wars by being cute
he jus wants 2 make sure we kno who 2 hold accountable
