“In my humble opinion, this is bad juju, dudes.”

Absolutely right, dude.

General McC is probably a fine general and perhaps the right commander for AF. But I am definitely unhappy about his public speeches, interviews, and the fact that his AF assessment to O was leaked to the media almost immediately. Shut up McC.

It isn’t so much that I dislike what he says, I just don’t want war options to be argued by Generals in public. As Americans we are supposed to despise secrecy but frankly I want our top people to be figuring it out in private and not booked on Larry King.

I consider the AF strategy so important that I don’t want O in Europe dealing with the Olympics or a Climate Treaty until the direction is set. I don’t want Gates worrying about C-17s. I don’t want Harry and Nancy calling conservatives NAZIs. Or tinkering with health care for now.

I do want Jimmy Carter to shut up. The old disgrace is aging badly and he wasn’t good to begin with. Ditto for Madelaine who was just over in Moscow knocking America for dollars, I think she got $40,000 for the speech.

Hagel seems the worst possible choice for DOD. He isn’t an administrator and if he has a brain at all I never noticed it. Also very much to the left. His selection would signal huge defense cuts and weakness.

Can’t say I am surprised. I thought O would pull out of AF and make tremendous defense cuts. The sad thing is no spending cuts will be made, the money will be wasted elsewhere.

It looks to me as if federalizing the schools is the next drive. Pay the teachers unions enough and they will back that in a heartbeat. The Dems also have to get reelected in 2010, but they act as if they can’t lose.

Well if I registered the voters and counted the votes I wouldn’t lose either.
