"Why take overrr?" she asked.  "Isn't it a little earrrly to assume that the 
CinC is incompetant?  While rrrevolution can be a good thing, if it's done 
against someone who is doing the rrright thing, orrr at least trrrying to, 
the leaderrr becomes a marrrtyrr.  What Ketterrring is doing, and I do not 
mean to offend you, has the potential forrr civil warrr.  Is that something 
he's willing to rrrisk?"
