How Many Generals?
I don’t get it. In accordance with the United States Constitution, there is only one CIC, correct? OK. I thought so.
I received this link from the office of Roy Blunt, Republican whip, and I was kind of busy posting ALL about the VICTORIOUS Gathering of Eagles get-together on 3/17/07 to post this.
‘Peanuts’ for Petraeus
Everybody’s a General in the Army called Congress.
That is a perfect rendering of the arrogance of a political body that has neglected the Constitution of the United States and has taken upon themselves to dictate how the American People are to live, breath, think and believe. This is totally uncool as well as unacceptable.
“To understand why the Founders put Presidents in charge of war fighting, look no further than the supplemental war spending bill now moving through the House. Everybody’s a four-star in Congress’s Army, and every general wants his own command, especially if it includes cash for the troops, er, campaign contributors. Too bad none of this bears any relation to what real General David Petraeus is trying to accomplish in Iraq…”
Playing politics with this country’s military and national security IS absolutely UNFORGIVEABLE.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!! Read the whole article and spread the word around.
Thanks for sharing.
