Retired Gen Tommy Franks gets Medal for what?
He and Rumsfailed are the main reason that the Insurgency in Iraq has the strength that it does. They are accountable for the scores of deaths of Iraqis and American Troops. Yeah, we live in the Twilight Zone of the Neo Facist Regime of Amerika.

1. Let's see. Bremer, Tenet, and how many other failures get medals?
Tommy is entitled to his own badge of porridge.

5. Franks got the Meal of Freedom,
personally pinned on him by shrub.

He decided that the push to Baghdad was more important than fighting the Fadajin, Civilian Insurgents, that later became the various groups of the Insurgency of Iraq. Also, allowing the Iraqi Army to disperse with their weapons and not gaurding many weapons arsenal sites. Franks was a real screwup that had the desire to be the hero that vanquished Saddam. Nothing in Baghdad was secured, except the following:

6. Franks may have been the one that allowed Osama
to escape Tora Bora.
