Nominee to Head Joint Chiefs Sees Current Strain on Military - washingtonpost.com

Damn, it would take a deaf, dumb and blind man not to see it.

We only hope that he doesn't see naval air power against Iran as a way of fixing anything, because that would make him dumb, dumb, dumb.....

Nominee to Head Joint Chiefs Sees Current Strain on Military - washingtonpost.com:

Adm. Michael G. Mullen, the Bush administration's choice to become the next chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, is deeply concerned that the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are straining the U.S. military and he probably would seek political solutions to those conflicts, according to longtime military associates.

'He's concerned the Army has been carrying the heavy load for some time,' said retired Army Gen. William 'Buck' Kernan, the former supreme allied commander, Atlantic, under whom Mullen served in 2000. 'He recognizes you can only stretch the rubber band so far.'
