Gen. Tony Zinni (Ret.) discusses BushCo "Throwing away 10 years of planning" for winning the peace in Iraq after Gulf War I. Said Rummy should resign; "ridiculous statements" are coming from admin.; and Zinni looked at the intel in 2002 and determined there was "no solid proof Saddam had WMD...the containment worked remarkably well." He reported this to the Senate Intel Comm. before the war, to no avail. Also discussed "democracy," and said that it's not just voting that is democracy; democracy also involves education. Cited an Iraqi woman who came to a polling place all excited about voting and she asked the voting official who she should vote for. The guy went down a list of over 100 parties and she was confused but stopped him when he read a name that had "Islamist" in it. She said that's who she would vote for.

In 2002, Gen. Zinni said, "These guys don't understand what they're getting into."

His new book is, "The Battle for Peace," and it should get some tongues wagging in Washington and move us closer to impeachment, I hope.

IMPEACH THE CHIMPS!
