"'The Decider' Fooling Himself Again, Fires Disagreeing Generals"


What a total jackass!

The Progressive Daily Beacon: "'The Decider' Fooling Himself Again, Fires Disagreeing Generals":

George W. Bush knows how to get Generals to concur with his disastrous plans: he fires all that disagree and promotes the numbskulls who agree. When Bush wanted to invade Iraq, General Shinseki warned that it would require a few hundred thousand troops ... not to win the war, but rather to secure the peace. Bush and his people -- Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz chief among them -- disagreed. They fired Shinseki and, of course, we all know now that the General knew exactly what he was talking about and that the President and his people were fools.

After learning a hard lesson like that, one might think the President would have taken his own advice and followed that old saying in Tennessee; the one he knew to be 'in Texas, probably in Tennessee....fool me once, shame on, shame on you. Fool me - you can't get fooled again.'
