Reply #4: Planning? Who needs a plan [View All]

Bushco forgot there was more to war than shock and awe, darnit. Brian Lamb on C-Span booknotes had a fellow on his show Sunday that was a prof. at a college and had a job with the govt. being part of a military and global discussion group, sorry didn't catch the proper terminology, who had written a recent article for the Wash. Post on the leading up to the war and the miserable mistakes that were made after. Lamb asked him if he was concerned about his job and future, speaking out as he did against this admin., and the guy said he had tenure where he taught and he felt it important to tell it like he saw it. He has a son, Lt., that will be leaving soon for Iraq. Wish I had made a note of his name. He was truly harsh in describing those leading this fiasco in Iraq.

This military vs. private companies is one large mistake. Course, we had to use private since our military is short personnel. Private contracts looks like some sort of candy store for corps. and we the people are having the tab put in our name.
