7. He seemed to think the system around Bush would stop him
as much as anything else. Hell, Bush's own dad should have been able to give Sonnyboy counsel if he'd only asked for it.

He didn't realize the line of decision making went Rummy to Cheney to Bush, with no input from anybody else. Not other generals. Not the CIA. Nobody. He didn't realize the neocons had hyjacked Bush already.

And the IWR did get inspectors in, but their finding mattered little.

It took Kerry all of 9 months to say "what the fuck." Just as he said he would if things turned out not to be as they were told they should be in Iraq. He said he'd be among the first to bitch in the government, and he was. I've got a speech from Dec, 2003 if you want to see it.
