Myers Supports Rumsfeld

The former chairman of the JCS comes to the defense of his old boss:

Air Force Gen. Richard B. Myers said yesterday that the behavior and comments from six generals is "inappropriate" for military officers. "I think there are professional standards that you have when you are in uniform that carry on when you retire," he said. "It's inappropriate because it's not the military that judges our civilian bosses. We'd be in a horrible state in this country, in my opinion, if the military was left to judge the civilian bosses, because when you judge Secretary Rumsfeld, you're also judging the commander in chief, because that's the chain of command, and that's just not appropriate," Gen. Myers told ABC's "This Week" program.

Plus Sen Mitch McConnell too:

"...it does remind us that civilian control of the military in this country is important, and at the end of the day, the civilian leaders are the ones who make the decision,"
