The Boston Globe's Charlie Savage reports
Control sought on military lawyers: Bush wants power over promotions. Bu$
hCo,
apparently troubled by the "independence of uniformed attorneys who have repeatedly raised objections to the White House's policies toward prisoners" has taken a typical assertive stance. Savage writes:
The administration has proposed a regulation requiring "coordination" with politically appointed Pentagon lawyers before any member of the Judge Advocate General corps - the military's 4,000-member uniformed legal force - can be promoted.
This administration knows no shame. Bu$
hCo has people like
the Pentagon's William "Jim" Haynes ready to
control a promotion policy that ought to be removed 100% from politics. We've already seen
how Mr. Haynes handled a retired JAG officer so one can only imagine how his type might handle folks still in uniform. Peace .. or War!
