It's not just Clinton appointees -- I don't understand what's the matter with these people.

"Prominent members include retired Marine Gen. Joseph P. Hoar, commander of U.S. forces in the Middle East during the administration of Bush's father; retired Adm. William J. Crowe Jr., ambassador to Britain under President Clinton and chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under President Reagan; and Jack F. Matlock Jr., a member of the National Security Council under Reagan and ambassador to the Soviet Union from 1987 to 1991. "

Someone on another thread stated that those three are practicing sour grapes.

Hoar because Schwartzkopf got the job to direct Desert Storm. Crowe it seems is a political whore like David Gergen(who also took a job in the Clinton administartion).

There is obviously a tension between some members of the first Bush Administration and the W's administration. Many of them belong to the liberal wing of the Republican Party which is not happy about being excluded from positions of power and influence. Bush II has cracked the egg of the status quo which they left in place after the Gulf War.
