Further Evidences
April 12th, 2007If I were a Libertarian or a “small-government” Republican I’d be dying a little on the inside with every day that passes by as President Bush has either betrayed every Conservative ideal or never shared them to begin with and either is possible. I’ve known this for awhile as have most people for anyone who needs further evidence that the President hasn’t a clue, here.
The White House wants to appoint a high-powered czar to oversee the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan with authority to issue directions to the Pentagon, the State Department and other agencies, but it has had trouble finding anyone able and willing to take the job, according to people close to the situation. At least three retired four-star generals approached by the White House in recent weeks have declined to be considered for the position, the sources said, underscoring the administration’s difficulty in enlisting its top recruits to join the team after five years of warfare that have taxed the United States and its military.
“Son, that’s what the Joint Chiefs of Staff are there for.” “Are you some kind of idiot?” “YOU’RE EXPANDING THE GOVERNMENT’S SIZE!” “You don’t listen to your advisors when they’re your normal advisors that you’re supposed to listen to. Why would you actually listen to a new council?” “I’ve got Golf.”
All responses given. I’ll bet, and I’d bet that Colin Powell was one of the men who declined, only asked for political purposes.
Just as bad, but with less negative consequence and more positive consequence, is this. Rudy Giuliani is terrible at running a Presidential campaign, which sucks for him but serves the rest of the country well. If he can be so incompetent that he won’t get nominated, he won’t get elected, so feel free to scare the public away, Rudy! You idiot.
