#2 The lack of such planning â indeed, the refusal in the first months after the invasion to acknowledge the presence of the insurgency â is at the heart of the criticism leveled recently at Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld by six former generals.

Sigh. The little traitor freak of a reporter just couldn't stand not letting an otherwise interesting, informative article go by without spraying it with irrelevant BDS. Its like seeing someone prepare a beautiful, delicious steak dinner...then s%#t all over it.

Get over it, all ready. The cited graf has nothing to do with the article, and just leaves you open to the charge of flaming bias. The only explanation I can think of is that it is either a macro inclusion, or the editor was asleep at the switch.

#4 I know it was the NYSlimes. I was just hoping that they would have an attack of decency or something. Silly me.
