Rumsfeld Rumble

How many retired US Generals will it take to convince President Bush to accept Rumsfeld’s resignation?
Granted that changes in leadership during a war might render the armed forces weak, but whom are we kidding, Rimsfeld is the same individual who said “you go to war with the Army you have� when asked about inferior military equipment by a soldier serving in Iraq. The sentiments of those serving in Iraq and elsewhere are probably similar to those of the retired Generals, but will make for a bad career move to openly criticize the Secretary of Defense while still in service. Case in Point, General John Riggs, a three-star general who was stripped off a star prior to his retirement for speaking out against what is now codified as the Runsfeld doctrine, which calls for as small a force as possible to fight wars overseas.
