Top Marine: No Plan For Post-Saddam Iraq

Oh yes, there was a plan, General.

Halliburton and other GOP campaign contributors got no-bid contracts for doing, essentially, nothing.

There is no one on the Joint Chiefs of Staff who has visited Iraq more often than Gen. Mike Hagee, whose term as Commandant of the United States Marine Corps ends Monday.

Hagee took over the Marine Corps just two months before the invasion of Iraq — and throughout his years as Commandant, he made a point of going there every two months to do a firsthand assessment of the battlefield.
