I defy you to find an unbiased news source that doesnt have an agenda in the background somewhere! CNN? Nope. MSN? Nope. BBC? Nope. Certainly NOT newspapers like the stars and stripes, or any other gorvermnet run or funded news source. There is no such thing as an unbiased news source.

Ive read enough of about rumesfield, not just from slate. I like slate because they back up their commentary with evidence, which makes it a bit more beleiveable. But, getting down to the basics, how many SecDef's have had so much brass speak out against him? I can think of one, just before the vietnam era (Aka "wizkids"), but i can't think of anymore.

My point is it sets a precident when so much brass pipes up pubically, and theres obviously a reason for it. Brass speaking out publically against the SecDef as they have against Rumesfield. is, as far as i know, highly unusual.
