Hell, I could do better than Clark and darn sure glad he's not running things...and I DO NOT AGREE WITH HIM

..but, I remember reading that Rummy was upset that war plans were not innovative enough. Rummy probably muddled things up, but com'on, 250 miles and 25 KIA's to their thousands of dead. We're outside Baghdad...as one 3rd ID said, were a gas tank from there...and Turkey played a big role in our problems. All this will be corrected with the 4th showing up and constant bombardment of RG.

I think Clark, when it is all said and done, will be shown up.

O'Reilly tonight said he heard the kill ratio is 25 to 35,000.
Funny how Al-Jihada, BBC, and CNN cannot even come up with a guess as to how many Iraqi fighters are dead.

Rummy *is* right.

war plan is good be could be more innovative ... could be doing more special ops and leadership undermining in baghdad, more psych ops and more support of anti-saddam incitement and propoganda. could do more to separate military from urban centers, and use our air power to insert forces in unexpected places (actually doing it now with 101st, so way to go), more use of precision air power to take out anything and everything, more use of allied forces (kurds and shiite fighters) ... etc. so how is Rummy wrong to ask for more innovation.

Blame the Pussy Powell for that. If he hadnt insisted (upon threat of resignation, reportedly) upon giving the U.N./French forces 9 months to gather strength Turkey would have been with us all the way.
