There's also the issue of privilege... Bush used his money to get out of service, supposedly.
You know, I read that "is our children learning" a little after bush got re-elected, and was pretty surprised to see how dope Gore was. That guy, I respect. If only he had been a little more public, and "entertaining" like he was on whatever late night show that was... But what really pisses me off, is that Dick and Rumsfield (sp?) were big Boyd buffs. Or so I read. At least Dick for sure. Boyd was a pretty cool dude. Robert, iirc, a air force guy who only had marines at his funeral, pissed off the big brass, whatnot. 40 second boyd. Heh. Great book, btw. Anyways, it's pretty sick how bad things were handled. We used the good tactics at first, took mad territory all quick, but then they make the same mistake people have been making for 1000s of years?!?! I don't get it. And these stupid comments like "with our technology, one soldier is like seven /normal/ soldiers" or whatever. Stuff Boyd specifically warned against. It's really strange, really strange... I think, honestly, they used the ooda for evil, id est, their own personal gains, not America's. Sorry if this sounds sorta crazy, I'm half-assing it, and not laying good groundwork for folks who don't know about OODA, and tactics, and math and whatnot. Or whatever. Oh well, screw it, but that book called "Boyd" is awesome. If you like that kind of stuff. ;-) Loathe, I'm looking in your direction. What other language do you speak? Glad you'll be 'round, btw. -Denny On 11/1/06, Zaphod Beeblebrox <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The problem with Kerry is that he estimates the intelligence of the > administration to be too high.
