Guess Who's a Thorn in Bush's Side

On Thursday, a former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff backed the effort by three GOP senators to block President Bush's request to redefine U.S. compliance with the Geneva Conventions' standards for the treatment of prisoners of war. Said this ex-JCS chairman and ex-cabinet secretary:
“The world is beginning to doubt the moral basis of our fight against terrorism. To redefine Common Article 3 would add to those doubts. Furthermore, it would put our own troops at risk.”
What was most embarrassing for Bush was that this ex-JCS chairman was his previous secretary of state: Colin Powell.
