A commenter says:
I'm surprised this august forum--which professes to speak for all the armed services--has failed to note the Army Times, Navy Times, Air Force Times, and the Marine Corps Times have all called for Rummy's resignation.They are all the same paper, of course. But over all, I'm unimpressed, and had commented on the topic elsewhere.
This humble little blog does not profess to "speak for all the armed services" either - the concept is absurd.
Update: "The National Enquirer of our military" - I've heard that expression used frequently.
Update 2: The DoD responds to the Military Times here.
Update 3: Heh - I think Tony Snow reads Instapundit.
50 years ago today,Nikita Kruschev sent Soviet tanks to crush a Hungarian Independence Uprising.
27 years ago today,Iranian Militants took American Embassy workers hostage.
26 years ago today, a man named Reagan was elected. (ed. it would be another 11 years before the last of the Soviet Tanks left Hungary.)
One of our milbloggers recently ran into someone famous. Nice pic!
...whether you're having fun or not.
Today is the 27th anniversary of the Tehran embassy hostage crisis.

Of course there will be bloodshed. There will be a lot of AKs firing in the air, too...
Lawyer hints at "bloodshed":
BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Iraqi security forces were on alert and a curfew was expected to keep Baghdad locked down on Sunday when Saddam Hussein hears the verdict in his trial for crimes against humanity.(Via Pajamas)If convicted, the ousted Iraqi president could be sentenced to hang.
Saddam's chief lawyer Khalil al-Dulaimi said on Friday Saddam believed the verdict was timed to boost President George W. Bush before mid-term elections on November 7, and urged a delay. He warned of bloodshed if Saddam is sentenced to death.
Surely no one would take that topic seriously, would they?
(I'm opposed to it - but I'm not in congress. Where do your candidates stand?)
TEHRAN, Nov 4 (Reuters) - Iran's judiciary has declared an ethnic Arab party illegal on charges of instigating unrest and opposing the Islamic system in the southern city of Ahvaz, Iranian news agency said on Saturday.Iran has blamed Britain(ed. it wasn't the Great Satan or the Joooos ?)
"The activities of that party is focused on opposing the Islamic Republic of Iran and instigating unrest and tension among Arabs and non-Arabs," the statement said.
Obviously they got the plans from that sonofabitch Johnson.
My first reaction to that is that any disincentives we thought were in place, aren't.
THE SPECTRE of a nuclear race in the Middle East was raised yesterday when six Arab states announced that they were embarking on programmes to master atomic technology. The move, which follows the failure by the West to curb Iran’s controversial nuclear programme, could see a rapid spread of nuclear reactors in one of the world’s most unstable regions, stretching from the Gulf to the Levant and into North Africa.The countries involved were named by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) as Algeria, Egypt, Morocco and Saudi Arabia. Tunisia and the UAE have also shown interest.
The poor, poor Iranians. They won't be the only nuclear power in the Middle East...who to target...Israel...Iran..Iran..Israel...those Arabs are so unpredictable. Someone could make a mistake!!!
