3 Strikes

If you are an Afro American dealing street drugs, three arrests, the three strike law says you go to jail with no get out of jail free card. If you are the Bush Administration Defense Secretary, it takes more than three strikes to get you out of office.

It takes more than 2700 dead American Soldiers, 18,000 wounded troops, over 100,000 dead or wounded Iraqi's.

And it takes more than 4 retired General's denouncing you. Three Generals and you should strike out, but not Donny, he is Georgie Porgie's pal.

'You know, it speaks volumes that guys like me are speaking out from retirement about the leadership climate in the Department of Defense,' Batiste said. 'But when decisions are made without taking into account sound military recommendations, sound military decision making, sound planning, then we're bound to make mistakes.' Retired General Calls For Rumsfeld to Resign

Joining the criticism earlier this week was retired Army Maj. Gen. John Batiste, who served as an infantry division commander in Iraq until last November. He called for a "fresh start at the Pentagon," accusing Rumsfeld of ignoring sound military decision-making and seeking to intimidate those in uniform.

Earlier calls for Rumsfeld's replacement came from retired Marine Gen. Anthony Zinni, retired Marine Lt. Gen. Gregory Newbold and retired Army Maj. Gen. Paul Eaton. Analysis: Criticism mounts vs. Rumsfeld
