Neocon Coup at Pentagon

With almost no notice at all President Bush signed an executive order changing the line of succession for Secretary of Defense.

In so doing he placed three Cheney-Rumsfeld lieutenants between Donald Rumsfeld and career military professionals, increasing to four the layers of Neocon ideologues separating George W. Bush from anyone who even resembles a professional solider.

The Neocon minds that brought us the debacle in Iraq now have unfettered control of the mightiest military force the planet has ever known. And, speaking of Iraq, the insurgency continues to grow with three Americans and 20 Iraqis killed yesterday.
