And let us not forget this piece about Capt. Randy Stone when he was praised by President Bush:

...President George Bush recognized one of the men charged in the Haditha killings, Capt. Randy W. Stone.

Bush praised Stone during a 2005 visit he made to North Island to rally support for "staying the course" in Iraq.

During his speech, Bush noted that Stone's grandfather, Leon Stone, had fought as a Navy sailor supporting the Marines in World War II's battle of Iwo Jima.

"And today ... Capt. Randy Stone carries on a proud family tradition," Bush said. "Capt. Stone is a Marine officer now serving in Iraq. He knows that he and his generation are doing the same vital work in this war on terror that his grandparents did in World War II. He also knows how this struggle will end."

Bush then quoted Stone as saying: 'I know we will win because I see it in the eyes of the Marines every morning. In their eyes is the sparkle of victory.' "

Let Capt. Randy Stone get back to doing the job he was hired to do. Stop second-guessing his investigation after the fact.
