Isn't it; all the years of the war, when George W. Bush didn't want to send more troops - the generals didn't want more troops. Now that the President wants to send more troops - the generals suddenly discover that they by golly sure would like to have some more troops!
I suppose it's some part of the legacy of Donald K. Rumsfeld, that he managed to purge the Pentagon of any generals who thought like generals, leaving only those who thought like lieutenants. I think perhaps they should dust off General Westmoreland, he of Vietnam infamy, and put him back in charge!
