SEND A COPIER TO THE PENTAGON


And then there is Air Force Gen. Richard B. Myers, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. On CBS News's "Face the Nation" last Sunday, host Bob Schieffer asked Myers why he had not seen a report on these horrific events that was completed in March.

"It's just working its way up, up the chain," Myers replied.


"Up the chain"????? What does that mean -- that there's only one copy and it has to be passed around? Hasn't the military heard of copy machines? And doesn't it seem odd that the higher-up you are, the more likely you are to be the last one in the know? In the business world, when something's important it gets taken straight to the CEO. Isn't Myers the CEO of the military?
