The rot in the US military leadership started long before this president. Nevermind the existing rot that comes with the better part of a trillion dollars showering (yes, it's a golden shower,) on the arms contractors for a moment.

Bush in his invasion if Iraq saw half the generals in the US be forced out, as they wouldn't sign on to a flawed doomed to fail invasion plan.
